RESUMENEl acceso a la universidad supone uno de los cambios más importantes que los estudiantes experimentan a lo largo de su formación, por lo que cualquier iniciativa encaminada a disminuir sus efectos indeseables es bien acogida. De cara a mejorar la cantidad y calidad de la información que durante este período los estudiantes reciben, el presente estudio se plantea como objetivo detectar las necesidades de información que presentan los estudiantes universitarios. Para ello, se diseñó un cuestionario que permitiera evaluar dichas necesidades. La versión original del cuestionario de 24 elementos se administró a una muestra de 741 estudiantes, de ambos sexos, de 17 a 25 años. Los resultados mostraron preocupaciones relativas a exámenes (76% estudiantes), planes de estudio (71,7%) y docencia (64%). Posteriormente, se les preguntó sobre las fuentes de las que habían obtenido información, así como, por el valor que concedían a la figura del estudiante-asesor.
