INTERNATIONAL ADMISSION
ADMISSION PROCESS FOR STUDENTS WHO HAVE COMPLETED OR ARE CURRENTLY COMPLETING NON-COMPULSORY PRE-UNIVERSITY SECONDARY EDUCATION
Admission process for students who have completed or are completing their post-compulsory pre-university secondary education outside Spain:
The first step to begin the admission process for a Undergraduate Degree at UFV is to complete the form at the bottom of this page.
Once you have registered, we will contact you to give you access to the Candidate Portal, from which you must submit the required documentation and pay the admission test fee on the same portal.
Once the documentation and payment have been verified, we will give you an appointment for an admission interview online, or in person if you are in Madrid and you prefer.
Documentation that you must upload to the Candidate Portal:
- Completed application form that you will find on the candidate portal.
Important: when you fill out the application form you must choose the degree you are interested in, this degree is a specialization. If you do not select one, we will not be able to process your application. In this box: you can see which degrees have their own associated degree. - Copy of your passport or Spanish DNI (National Identity Document) (each side of the DNI must be scanned seperately).
- Scanned passport photo.
- Academic transcript of the last 2 years of non-compulsory pre-university secondary education.
- Certificate of B2 level of Spanish for students with another first language.*
- Certificate of B2 level of English for students who want to apply for the following degrees: Bilingual ADE, International Relations, Business Analytics (and all the Dual Degree versions of the three mentioned above), Biomedicine and Biotechnology.*
*This requirement is not mandatory for students who have graduated from high school where English and/or Spanish is the language of instruction. - Handwritten letter in Spanish where you explain your interest in your chosen degree, in UFV and tell us a little about yourself.
You can expand as much as you want. It can be written in English for applications for bilingual degrees. - Letter of recommendation in Spanish or English from a professor or employer.
- Proof of payment of the Admission Test Fees amounting to €70*.
*This amount is non-refundable.
Admission:
The UFV Admissions Committee will inform you of the result by email, within approximately one week from the date of the interview.
If you are succesful, you will receive an email with the instructions to follow to reserve your place (quota). You have 15 days to make a decision. Places are filled in strict order of reservation and depending on the time of your admission there may not be many places left.
The place reservation (quota) is independent of the registration fee and is not deducted from any other payment. It is paid only for the first year and is returned only if you can prove that you have failed non-compulsory pre-university secondary education or have been denied a visa. It cannot be used for another academic year (if you decide to postpone your start at the university for the following year, you will have to go through the admission process again and re-reserve your place). This reservation guarantees your place until the end of the enrollment period indicated by your advisor.
Enrollment:
Enrollment is done online through the Candidate Portal, uploading the required documentation, according to your legal access route to the university (homologation, UNED credential, partial validation of credits). The PCE is only required for international students entering Medicine.
In order to complete enrollment you must have a Spanish bank account, from which the direct debit will be deducted.
The registration period opens in June and ends in September.
Important: The regular registration period ends in September with the beginning of the academic year, except for international students, who, if necessary due to bureaucratic reasons beyond their control, have an extraordinary period until October 30.
