Entrance to the course of study offered in our School can be realized in a number of ways:

1. By taking the entrance examinations established for the two levels of study that are offered at the School: Training Cycles and Upper Levels in Design. These entrance exams cover different levels of previous studies (consult in ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR TRAINING CYCLE or ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR UPPER LEVEL COURSES IN DESIGN ). In order to take these exams, it is necessary to pre-register, and once the exams are passed, the candidate can register on the scheduled dates and times (Consult in ACADEMIC YEAR CALENDAR).

2. Students who are in the process of studying these same courses of study in other Spanish Official Schools of Art can continue them in our centre by requesting in the offices of our Secretary (by letter) to have their records transferred to our School. This will be granted on the basis of the possibilities of space and the interests of the centre.

3. Candidates coming from educational systems different from the Spanish system must enter as stipulated in point 1 above. In order to certify a level of previous studies equivalent to those required within the Spanish educational system, studies must be validated through the Spanish Embassy in the country of origin, or validation requested at the following address :

Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia
Dirección General de Educación, Formación del Profesorado e Innovación Educativa
Subdireción General de Acción Educativa
Servicio de Enseñanza de Ordenación Académica de Enseñanzas Artísticas
C/ Los Madrazo, 15, 17
28014 MADRID

This validation of studies is an indispensable requirement for entry in to our centre. Once this is granted by the Ministry, the candidate can contact us in order to formalize the official registration.

Our school carries out exchange programs for students within the Erasmus Plan of the European Union. These exchanges are carried out only with those centres with which we have established bilateral agreements (consult INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS). Students from these schools who wish to participate in the exchange program must request this in their respective centres, and can study at our School for a period of not more than one academic year, and are exempted from the above mentioned requirements for entry in to the school.
