If we have already communicated your admission to UC3M, it is important that you read the following information to confirm your place and start with us in the next course:
Reserve admission place
If you have completed the process and have received a notification that you have been admitted, you will be able to reserve your place:
You must pay 300 € as a reservation fee, which will be deducted from the registration fee. The deadline for payment of the reservation is 15 days from the notification of admission. This reservation will not be returned, or transferred to later years, if you do not finally register. In particular, the refusal to grant visas or the approval of the baccalaureate will not entitle the holder to return the reservation. Payment can be made by credit card. Upon booking you will receive the letter of admission.

- I don’t have a password or I misplaced it: If you made your request through the Common App or lost your password Click here, and enter your ID, Passport or your identity card, (the one you registered in your application ) and your date of birth. You will get your password.
Apply for recognition of studies
- What is the recognition of studies? How do I apply for the recognition of studies?
The recognition of studies is the procedure by which the Ministry of Education declares that studies in a foreign country are equivalent to the level of the baccalaureate in Spain.
All relevant information can be found on this website of the Ministry of Education.
This is a procedure completely outside of the University.
- Can I apply for admission if I have not started the process of recognition of studies?
If you are now studying your final year of high school or have finished and have not started the process, you can apply for admission without presenting the provisional registration form. If you are admitted, we will ask you to send us the recognition document as soon as possible.
At the time of submission of the application for recognition of studies to the Ministry of Education, you must request that you be given the "provisional registration document". This document must be sent to the Admission Service at prospectivestudents@uc3m.es in pdf format.
- Can I start studying before I get the recognition of my studies from the Ministry of Education?
Yes, if you’ve been admitted, you can enroll and start your studies.
In this case, your admission and enrolment will be conditional on the final recognition being resolved positively. The deadline set for submitting the recognition is the first academic year, if you do not submit it within that period, the enrolment and admission to the university will be cancelled, without the right to refund the amounts paid.
Make your enrollment
