Students must obtain the corresponding accreditation at the UNED, which may require the prior approval of their degrees of access


At UPV, all degrees have admission caps indicating the maximum number of new students who can enrol in certain classes. Students who pre-enrol are arranged based on their admission mark and this determines who is offered a place.

For tuition, students can either make payment in one instalment, two instalments, or in eight instalments.

International students on undergraduate programs must undergo the university’s pre-registration process, and different dates are assigned to each Autonomous Community. Before carrying out the pre-registration students must obtain the necessary documentation at the UNED .


To earn a place at postgraduate level on a master’s degree program at UPV, students must:

• Hold an official university degree in Spain or a degree issued by a higher education institution belonging to another member state of the EHEA that authorizes access to master’s degrees

Graduates may also access a master's degree according to educational systems outside the EHEA without validating their degree if the university is equivalent to a Spanish university degree.

After the corresponding pre-registration process, students will be admitted if they hit the academic criteria. In some cases, a student may be required to complete complementary training based on the previous accredited training.

Students can pay their tuition in one instalment, two instalments, or in eight instalments.
