Access to the University

Access without an entrance exam

Students graduating in this course have direct access to Spanish University without having to take any entrance exam. In the case of degrees with higher demand  than availability, the entrance grade will be used.

Entrance Grade
The entrance grade  for students holding any Qualification of Technician will be the Higher Studies average rate (NMC). When the number of applications exceeds the places available, students can improve their entrance grade undertaking the specific phase of the access test (Article 7 of Royal Decree 558/2010 of 7 May). This specific phase will be adapted to the following criteria:
a) The content of the syllabus will be established for the curriculum materials of the type of second course in the high school.
b) Each student will have a maximum of four exercices to choose from.
c) Each exercise will come up with two different options from which students have to choose one.
d) Each exercise will be rated from 0 to 10 points, with two decimal places. In order to pass the exercise, the student must get a grade equal to or higher than 5 points.
e) The public universities will use the corresponding access rate to award the places, which is calculated with the following formula and expressed with three decimal places.
Access grade= NMC + a*M1 + b*M2
 NMC=average rating of the higher studies.
 M1 , M2 = ratings of up to two passed exercises from the specific phase that provide the best admission grade.
 a, b = Weighting parameters  from the  specific phase exercises.
Each university may establish its own parameters, which will be different depending on the Degree.
