Presentation
The future Bachelor's Degree in Medicine will be built on three fundamental pillars that address the challenges of 21st-century medicine: technology, humanism, and social commitment. This innovative approach we plan to implement ensures comprehensive training that combines scientific knowledge with the personal and social dimensions of medical practice.
We aim to equip medical students with the knowledge and skills necessary to become professionals with a comprehensive view of health. The doctor we plan to train will have up-to-date technical preparation in the technological field and a deeply human education, enabling them to approach patient care with sensitivity and empathy.
Who is it for?
The recommended entry profile for the future Bachelor's Degree in Medicine at Universitat Ramon Llull will correspond to candidates motivated to acquire the knowledge and develop the skills necessary to diagnose, treat, and prevent diseases, as well as to promote the health and well-being of individuals and the community. They should have a deep interest in understanding the biological, psychological, and social aspects of health, social awareness and a vocation for serving others, strong ethical values, and respect for patients’ rights.
The objectives and competencies of the Bachelor's Degree in Medicine are those established in Order ECI/332/2008, of February 13, which sets the requirements for the verification of official university degrees that qualify for the practice of the medical profession.
Major areas for professional development
- Access to specialized medical training (MIR), which qualifies professionals to practice medicine in various areas of the public or publicly funded healthcare sector (primary care, hospital care, long-term and social care, mental health), in hospitals, primary care teams, long-term care centers, mental health facilities, emergency medical transport services, and other healthcare services.
- Self-employed medical practice, either in a private medical office or as part of the medical staff in privately owned hospitals, mutual insurance organizations, or private insurance companies. Private practice is a career option for physicians who wish to work in this field, either as their main professional activity or as a complement to practicing in the public healthcare system.
- International organizations such as the WHO or Doctors Without Borders.
- University teaching and/or teaching at various academic levels and settings related to health sciences education.
- Research in universities and/or within public administrations, as well as in public health centers and institutions.
If you choose the future Bachelor's Degree in Medicine at Universitat Ramon Llull, you choose…
- A strong and strategic commitment by URL, led by the Blanquerna-URL Faculty of Health Sciences with the close, committed, and integrated collaboration of other Ramon Llull University centers such as IQS, La Salle, Esade, the Borja Institute of Bioethics, and the Vidal i Barraquer University Institute of Mental Health.
- A prominent leading hospital network in our country, including the Quirónsalud group (Hospital Quirónsalud Barcelona, Hospital El Pilar, and Hospital Quirónsalud Badalona); Fundación Hospitalarias (Barcelona, Barcelona Nord, Martorell, and Sant Boi); Germanes Hospitalàries Research Foundation (FIDMAG); and the health centers CAP Vallcarca, CAP Sant Gervasi, and EAP Dreta de l’Eixample - CAP Roger de Flor.
- A comprehensive education based on values, knowledge, and skills, combining the latest technological and scientific advances with a humanistic approach.

Application for admission
The application process for a place in the 2026-2027 academic year begins on October 31, 2025, and consists of three phases:
- Application for admission
- Admission
- Enrollment
1. Application for admission
The application for a place can be made online or in person and entitles the applicant to participate in the admission process.
It can be done via the Application for admission button on the page for each degree, or directly from here, and requires:
- Registering in the single registration system and creating a user account (if not done previously).
- Making a payment of €50 (non-refundable) for admission rights and procedures. This can be done with a credit or debit card through a secure and confidential process with BBVA bank.
- Uploading the documentation to the document repository before the deadline for the place application process.
- Identification document (DNI, NIE, Passport)
- Certification of university entrance qualifications (PAU (University Entrance Exams), CFGS (Higher-Level Vocational Training), International Baccalaureate Diploma, etc.) if available at the time of applying for a place.
In order to calculate the admission grade, applicants to the Medicine degree must upload to the document repository an official certificate with their Baccalaureate grade (first year or complete) / PAU / CFGS / CAO*.
*CAO: Official Academic Certificate. To be submitted by those entering the degree with a completed university qualification.
It can be done at the School itself, by going to the Student Information and Guidance Service (SIOE), and the following must be submitted:
- Photocopy of the identification document (DNI, NIE, Passport)
- Photocopy of the certification of university entrance qualifications (PAU (University Entrance Exams), CFGS, International Baccalaureate Diploma, etc.) if available at the time of applying for a place.
- Payment of €50 (non-refundable) for admission rights and procedures. This can be made in cash or with a credit or debit card.
- In order to calculate the admission grade, applicants to the Medicine degree must upload to the document repository an official certificate with their Baccalaureate grade (first year or complete) / PAU / CFGS / CAO*.
*CAO: Official Academic Certificate. To be submitted by those entering the degree with a completed university qualification.
2. Admission
30% based on the Academic record provided by the student: Baccalaureate grade (first year or complete) / PAU / CFGS / CAO
70% based on the Admission Tests
The admission tests for Medicine consist of the following:
Objective test (multiple choice) to assess scientific knowledge and logical reasoning. The evaluated knowledge corresponds to the curricular content up to the first year of Baccalaureate in the areas of Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Contemporary World Sciences/general culture, and English. (50% of the admission test)
Tests aimed at assessing personal, ethical, and vocational suitability for the degree profile. Test to evaluate reading comprehension. (50% of the admission test)
*The estimated maximum duration is 2 hours and 30 minutes.
The first admission test will take place in person on December 13, 2025.
Admission to the Medicine degree will be based on the admission grade.
After each test, admitted students will be called to complete enrollment.
To be admitted:
You must have an admission grade of 8 out of 10 or higher (subject to availability of places).
If this criterion does not fill 40% of the offered places, the minimum entry grade (cut-off grade) will be lowered to reach this percentage.
Students who are not admitted in each allocation can apply again in subsequent allocations, keeping their obtained grade.
It is the student's responsibility to have a B2-level proficiency in the language of instruction of the degree in order to follow the classes properly.
3. Enrollment
The student called for enrollment can choose between two options, depending on whether they already have the definitive access route or not.
- Conditional Enrollment
Enrollment in the degree can be completed before passing the PAU or CFGS or before having the access route. The enrollment will be conditional upon submitting the corresponding access route. This option secures the place and allows selecting the class schedule, in degrees with more than one schedule, as long as places are available.
Once enrolled, if the student does not obtain the access route by June, they will have two options:
- The enrollment fee will be refunded, but the student will lose the place and the amount paid for the application (€50).
- If there are available places in July, the student can choose to remain on the waiting list until September and keep the place, but will no longer have priority in selecting the class schedule. If the access route is still not obtained by September, the enrollment fee will be refunded.
- Final enrollment
It will be formalized if, at the time of processing the enrollment, the student already has the university entrance pathway. They may opt for the available places and shifts.
IMPORTANT: Degrees with more than one shift may exhaust places in a specific schedule with conditional enrollment. The required documentation must be uploaded via the Document Repository.
The place will be definitive once the student has submitted the documentation with the final university entrance information and the first enrollment payment has been made.
Studies can be paid upfront and/or in interest-free installments. If payment by installment is selected, upon enrollment the student will have two business days to pay 50% of the total cost of the enrolled credits, using their chosen form of payment; this payment will not be taken by direct debit. The remaining 50% will be divided into nine monthly payments from October to June via bank direct debit from the account provided at the time of enrollment. Prices for each academic year are updated annually.
Once payment is made, the corresponding receipt of enrollment can be viewed in the student's Document Repository and via the student's portal.
International or foreign students
For the foreign student admission process, the following considerations and requirements must be taken into account in accordance with the prevailing regulations.
Students must apply to the Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED) to obtain the credential certifying that they meet the requirements to access university studies within the state education system (UNED Credential). Therefore, they do not need to take the PAU (University Entrance Exams), but without the mentioned credential, they cannot enroll in our degrees.
The education systems that can be accessed through this pathway are: Germany, Andorra, Austria, European Schools (European baccalaureate), International Baccalaureate, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Denmark, Slovakia, Slovenia, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, China and Cyprus.
These students may access our degrees by submitting the homologation of the High School diploma from the Spanish Ministry of Education or from the autonomous communities with transferred competence, such as the Generalitat de Catalunya. Proof of application for convalidation will be sufficient for students to enroll and begin taking a bachelor's degree course, however full enrollment is conditional on convalidation being confirmed. Bear in mind that convalidating studies can take more than three months to complete, so this process should be done in parallel with the admissions process to our bachelor's degrees. If the convalidation resolution is not obtained in the terms requested by the interested party, the results of any exams taken, or the enrollment made as a result thereof, are rendered null and void.

Gender perspective
As the European Union points out, gender equality is not only a matter of social justice but also affects the results of teaching and research. Promoting gender equality in research and innovation is one of the European Commission's commitments, and it supports the explicit integration of a gender perspective in Horizon 2020 projects. However, this recommendation is often poorly understood and misapplied. Various documents are presented here with a view to contributing to a better understanding and application of the gender perspective in teaching and research.
