Admission and pre-enrolment

Generally speaking, only university degree holders can be admitted to UB-specific master’s degree courses, postgraduate diplomas and certificates of attainment, although the following cases may also apply:

  • an applicant who does not have a university degree qualification may be admitted on the basis of a particularly strong curriculum and, upon successful completion of the course, such students are awarded a university extension qualification;
  • in the case of certain courses, an applicant may be conditionally admitted if he or she is studying a higher education course within the Spanish education system and has already gained more than 90% of the credits required for a university degree qualification. 

Students should consult the "Objectives and admission" section at UB-specific master’s degree courses and postgraduate diplomas to determine the specific admission requirements for the course. If necessary, they should contact the course director to find out about specific requirements.

Holders of degrees from universities outside Spain should consult the page Admission with foreign qualifications to learn more about specific admission requirements.
