Requirements:A minimum of 30 passed credits (ECTS) must be required to start the enrollment.
Only in case there are any vacancies for the degree you have applied for, you may be admitted if the UCM validates at least 30 credits (ECTS) of your previous studies.
Remarks:
  • The official enrollment will depend on a favourable resolution and will be valid for the present academic year and the following one, not later.
  • In case there will be more applications than available placements, the assessment of student’s academic records will be the prevailing criteria.
  • If for any reason you cannot carry out the partial validation (because you do not fulfill the requirements, or the Faculty responsible for the studies you are interested in does not offer places to access through this way), you can always finish your university studies at your university of origin and, once you have finished, take an Official Master's Degree with us. 
  • If you do not fullfill the official requirements, you may apply for general admission for international students.
