Spanish Grading System

The students' performance is assessed using a 0 to 10-point grading scale, where “0” corresponds to the lowest possible grade and “10” corresponds to an achievement of 100% of the learning objectives. The grades are registered as listed below, from lowest to highest score:

  • "Suspenso" (FAIL) from 0 to 4.9
  • "Aprobado" (PASS) from 5 to 6.9
  • "Notable" (GOOD) from 7 to 8.9
  • "Sobresaliente" (EXCELLENT) from 9 to 10
  • Matrícula de Honor – MH (DISTINCTION)”: special distinction for students with a grade equal or higher than 9.

The grade point average (GPA) is calculated according to the following principle: sum of the credits earned by the student multiplied by the corresponding grade of each course, divided by the number of total credits obtained by the student.

Some credits obtained through credit recognition or corresponding to extracurricular activities (student clubs, sports, student representatives, cooperation and volunteering) will have no numerical score but only a “PASS” score and will not compute for calculating the academic average.
