Admission requirements
In order to access the Master’s Degree it will be necessary to be in possession of an official Spanish university degree or another degree issued by a higher education institution belonging to another member state of the European Higher Education Area that entitles access to Master’s Degree studies in that country.
Likewise, graduates from educational systems outside the European Higher Education Area may be admitted without the need for the homologation of their degrees, after verification by the University that they accredit a level of education equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish university degrees and that they qualify in the country issuing the degree for access to postgraduate studies.
For university studies carried out in foreign institutions, it will be necessary to fill in and attach the result of the “DECLARATION OF EQUIVALENCE OF THE AVERAGE GRADE OF THE ACADEMIC TRANSCRIPT OF STUDIES ABROAD”..
Foreign students whose native language is not Spanish must provide, as a pre-enrollment requirement, a certificate of Spanish level B2, from the certifying bodies included in the tables of certificates recognized by the following organizations ACLES (Association of Language Centers in Higher Education).
Admission for disabled students
For students with specific educational needs arising from a disability, appropriate support and counseling services will be established to assess the needs of curricular adaptations, itineraries or alternative studies, through the support of the CEDAT Foundation of the UPV.
The CEDAT Foundation of the UPV offers information and advice to members of the university community with disabilities, as well as accompaniment and support in the classroom. In addition, it provides technical aids for study to those members of the student body who, due to their special educational needs, require it. It also promotes and manages training and employment actions for this group, both inside and outside the UPV campuses, and offers different services from its Special Employment Center.
The foundation also carries out projects for the elimination of architectural and urban barriers, comprehensive accessibility plans, accessibility audits, project reviews, advice and design of ideal accessibility models.
General information on access can be found in the Alumni Service – Access
