Enrolment process

In accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), the minimum level required to access the courses offered by the Faculty of Economics and Business, is B2 in the language of instruction of the courses to be enrolled: English, Spanish or Catalan.

No certificate is required for the language in which no courses have been selected. For courses taught in Catalan, a Spanish certificate will also be accepted due to the similarity between both languages.

The level required can be accredited in three different ways; however, depending on your native language and home country, you may be exempt, the system will indicate this in due course:

1. Official Certificate (see table below)
2. Certificate issued by the home university, stating that the student has a minimum level of B2 or equivalent.
3. Certificate issued by the home university stating that the student is studying entirely in the relevant language or has completed at least 90 credits in that language.
