Admissions
To gain admission into official Master’s degree program, applicants must hold an official degree from a Spanish university or another degree issued by a higher education institution within the European Higher Education Area which in the issuing country authorizes the holder of this degree to pursue a Master’s degree.
Likewise, holders of Bachelor’s degrees from outside the European Higher Education Area may gain admission to Master’s degree programmes without the need to have their degrees officially approved as long as the university can beforehand accredit a level of training equivalent to the corresponding Spanish official university degrees which in the issuing country authorize the holder of this degree to pursue a postgraduate degree. Admission by this means in no way entails approval of the previous degree or its recognition for purposes other than pursuing a Master’s degree.
In some individual cases, it is possible that access will be given to non-graduate students who, thanks to their professional or personal career, we consider to be in a position to follow the courses. In this case, the title that these students will receive will be a university extension diploma.
Selection process
In the selection process of students the following will be taken into account:
- School record
- Personal Interview
- Work experience
Individuals interested in taking a Master's Degree will be interviewed by the Academic Director or Coordinator of the Master’s program.
Application Process
The process has two phases:
- Application: You can complete the application online. Once registered, you will receive a corresponding receipt with the information and an application code (CIB).
- Enrollment: this implies the acceptance of an assigned place.
Application
You must fill in the form that you will find when clicking on the option ‘application’ for each qualification and follow the instructions that are indicated. During the process you will have to upload any requested papers and you will be assigned a day and time for interview with the coordinator of the selected course. This process is free of charge.
As soon as the application is completed, you will receive a corresponding receipt with the information and an application code (CIB).
After analyzing and assessing the candidates’ dossiers, each candidate will receive the final result of the admission process and if accepted the information necessary to enroll the program.
Reserve a place
Once the admission is communicated, the candidate must pay €100 fee in order to reserve a place on the course through the same application in which the application was made. The payment of this amount will be considered as a reservation of place and will be deducted from the total price of the registration fee, when the course is formalized. Payment is made by credit or debit card through a secure and confidential process. The amount paid will not be refunded in any case, except if the course is canceled.
Enrollment
Enrollment is the definitive step to gain access to the master's degree. The date of registration will be communicated individually to each student. The formalization of the registration, together with the payment of the corresponding amount, indicates the definitive securing of your place. If the student leaves the course, return of fees will not be given under any circumstance
The School does not guarantee that classes will be held if the minimum enrollment number is not met.

- Certified photocopy of the degree certificate that provides access to the course or of the receipt of a request for such.
- Official academic certificate (related to the subjects taken on the course).
