Study with us
Accessing university is a key step in your academic and professional development. At UTAMED, we want to make sure you know about all the access requirements necessary to start your training with us. Below, we explain the access criteria for both our undergraduate degrees and our master's degrees, adapted to the different entry routes available.
Admission requirements for Undergraduate Degrees
To access our undergraduate degrees, it is necessary to comply with any requirements established by current legislation. The main access routes include:
Access from Baccalaureate/COU, HE or Entrance Exam
- Students with a Bachelor's degree or equivalent, who have passed the university entrance exam according to current regulations.
- Students with Higher Education qualifications in Vocational Training, Plastic Arts and Design, or Higher Sports Technician, or equivalent qualifications, who do not need to take an entrance exam.
- Students from foreign educational systems who do not need to take an entrance exam:
- Students from the European Union or countries with reciprocity agreements, meeting the requirements of their educational systems.
- Holders of the European Baccalaureate (European Schools).
- Graduates holding the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
University-educated students
- Those with an official undergraduate, Master's or equivalent university degree.
- Graduates with an official degree prior to the current university regulations (Diploma, Technical Architect, Technical Engineer, Bachelor's, Architect or Engineer), or equivalent degree.
- Students with partial university studies in Spain, if the university recognises at least 30 ECTS credits.
- Students with partial foreign university studies or a foreign university degree without homologation in Spain, provided that the Spanish university recognises at least 30 ECTS credits. If they do not obtain recognition, they will be able to access under the same conditions as students from their home educational system without university studies. In certain cases, they must comply with the homologation requirements for the degree or non-university studies according to Spanish regulations.
Other access routes
- Have passed the University Entrance Exam for students over 25 years of age.
- Have passed the University Entrance Exam for students over 40 years of age.
- Have passed the University Entrance Exam for students over 45 years of age.
Access from Latin America: to access a degree at UTAMED from Latin America, it is necessary to homologate your baccalaureate degree with the Spanish baccalaureate degree. Once approved, you will have direct access to our official undergraduate qualifications without the need for additional entrance exams.
Admission requirements for Master's Degrees
To study a master's degree at UTAMED, it is essential to have a previous university degree. General requirements include:
University-educated students
- Have an official Bachelor's Degree granted by a Spanish university, or an equivalent qualification.
- Have a Bachelor's or Master's Degree issued by an institution of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), which allows access to master's studies in the country of origin.
- Possess a university degree obtained outside the EHEA, equivalent to a Bachelor's Degree, without the need for homologation, provided that said qualification allows access to postgraduate studies in their country of origin. This type of access does not imply official approval or its validity for other purposes in the Spanish educational system.
If you have a foreign degree not homologated in Spain, the University will verify that you meet the requirements to access the master's degree. You must demonstrate that your degree allows you to study for a master's degree in your country of origin.
You can enroll in a master's degree if you only need the Final Degree Project and up to 9 ECTS to finish the degree, although you will not be able to obtain the master's degree until you complete the degree. Priority will be given to those who already have the official university degree.
Enrolment process for our qualifications
Once the admission process has been completed, admitted candidates must formalise their enrolment within the deadlines established by the University.
In the event that any of the admitted persons does not complete their registration within the indicated period, the available places will be assigned to the candidates on the waiting list.
To formalise the registration, it is essential to present original documentation or certified copies that prove compliance with the requirements required by current regulations.
If the academic documentation comes from educational systems of countries without international agreements, it must be apostilled or legalised through diplomatic channels. If the documents are not in Spanish, it will be mandatory to submit a sworn translation.
