I'm interested in studying at UCLM until the completion of my studies. Which is the procedure?

If you have not started yet university studies, this is the registration procedure:

  1. You must apply for the Credit Transfer Certificate (Homologación or Convalidación) of your Secondary studies to the Spanish Ministry of Education and Science.
  2. You have to pass the Entry Test (Selectividad).
  3. Now you can make the pre-registration in the dates fixed by the UCLM.

If you have already started university studies and you would like to continue your studies at University of Castilla-La Mancha, you have to follow these steps:

First of all, you must make the partial credits transfer application at the faculty/school you are planning to study. This application must contain the official transcript of records with the courses you have done, specifying that you have not completed your degree. You also have to include your study program published by your faculty, the courses' contents and your passport or official document where your place and date of birth are shown. To qualify, students must transfer 60 credits at least from the courses' program that is stipulated at UCLM or 15 credits, when you are applying for a degree which has not limited admission.

Once the applicants have received the credits transfer official document, they can pre-register at University of Castilla La Mancha , having into account procedures and deadlines.
