Your example is missing a "}" on the begin document line. \rightarrow is a math symbol; as such, it needs to be in math mode (either $\rightarrow$ or \(\rightarrow\) ). As for the rest of the stuff, might I recommend this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt]{report}
\newcommand{\student}[7]{\item Number: #1, student from #2 department.\\
Address information:\\
House Number: #3\\
Street Name: #4\\
#4${}\rightarrow{}$#5 :\\
#6\\
Additional information: #7.
}
\begin{document}
\begin{enumerate}
  \student{Af110478}{computers}{1A/132}{PDTR}{Proddutoor}{kadapa}{no}
  \student{Af110546}{computers}{19A/12}{BDVL}{badvel}{kadapa}{no}
\end{enumerate}
\end{document}
