Access and admission

Access

In this section, we will comply with the provisions of Article 6. Access Requirements, of Agreement 7/CG 27-06-2017, which approves the Regulations for University-Owned Degrees of the University of La Laguna, published in the BOULL Year II No. 12, Thursday, June 29, 2017.

Those who can prove they hold a recognized foreign higher education degree or one equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish undergraduate degree will also have access to studies leading to ULL's own postgraduate degrees. For this purpose, recognition of said degree is not required, but prior verification that it qualifies in the country of issue for access to postgraduate studies.

Those who meet the following requirements will be able to access the studies and obtain the Master's degree:

a) Be in possession of an official university degree, another expressly declared equivalent or an official university degree obtained in accordance with university education systems prior to that established in Royal Decree 1393/2007, of October 29 (BOE No. 260, of October 30).

b) Hold a bachelor's degree from the ULL, or equivalent from another university, with a minimum duration of 120 ECTS credits. In this case, the student may enroll in master's studies but will not receive the degree. If the student passes the assessment for all subjects of the degree, they may apply for a Specific Training Certificate.

c) Proof of having earned at least 180 ECTS credits corresponding to official undergraduate studies. In this case, the student must have completed their undergraduate studies before applying for a master's degree. If the student does not complete their official undergraduate studies and applies for a master's degree, they will obtain a Specific Training Certificate.

d) Those who can demonstrate professional experience in the field of activities related to the degree's own qualification of at least two years. In this case, the student may access the master's degree but will not obtain the qualification. If the student passes the assessment for all the subjects of the degree, they may apply for the Specific Training Certificate. The Vice-Rector's Office responsible for specific qualifications will verify the professional experience of these students and authorize their admission.

Student Admission

Article 7.- Admission. The admission process will be carried out through applications from interested parties, which will be processed by the ULL unit responsible for managing university-specific degrees. This unit will be responsible for verifying that applicants meet the admission requirements. 

They may take certain Modules or Subjects separately provided that they comply with the regulations in this regard set out in Article 8.- Pre-registration and enrolment, of Agreement 7/CG 27-06-2017 approving the Regulations for University of La Laguna's Own Degrees, published in BOULL Year II No. 12 Thursday, 29 June 2017.
