Continuity

Continuity

According to these regulations, when a student cannot continue with their undergraduate degree, they can only repeat their studies if they are admitted as a graduate from another degree (via pre-enrolment) or if they apply for a change in studies (you have to apply for this at the university).

Students who are admitted to the UAB from other universities will adhere to the UAB regime of continuity upon admission. Their previous trajectory will not be taken into account.

Students with disabilities or exceptional situations

The UAB must ensure that this regulation is applied adequately to students with special needs, through the assessment of each individual case and the adoption of specific measures.

Appeals based on the application of this regulation

Appeals related to the application of this regulation will first be resolved by the dean or director of the centre.

An appeal can be filed against the decision of the dean or director with the rector of the UAB, who makes the final decision after being informed by the Board of Trustees and having evaluated the circumstances and the teaching centre's report.

The rector's decision is final. Therefore, any student wishing to file an appeal against the rector's decisions must file it under contentious-administrative proceedings.

  • Provisions related to the maximum period of study and maximum number of enrolments are applied starting in the 2015/16 academic year.
