Equivalencies

To pursue certain studies in Spain at the different education levels it is mandatory to apply for validation of courses or recognition of diplomas/degrees, depending on the education grade or course in which one wishes to enroll.

The validation of foreign studies or courses at pre-university level means the declaration of their equivalence in the Spanish education system, with the purpose of continuing studies in a Spanish school.
