Entry requirements

Access begins with an online preinscription form. Applicants must submit academic transcripts for studies completed to date, a national ID or passport, and pay a non‑refundable reservation fee of €75. When a place is provisionally allocated it must be confirmed with a €550 payment (this amount is deducted from tuition and is refundable if the candidate ultimately cannot prove university access). Failure to pay within the stated deadline results in loss of the place. Final enrolment (matrícula) is completed once university access is formally accredited.

Career prospects

Graduates are qualified for the regulated professions of Primary School Teacher and Early Childhood Education Teacher (per the cited ministerial orders). Typical professional destinations listed by the university include:

• Teaching in schools
• Educational work within institutions
• Educational and play‑based advisory roles
• Development of educational or cultural activities

Scholarships & funding angle

The institution highlights several financial support options: social aid, the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport (MECD) scholarships, regional scholarships from the Junta de Castilla y León and scholarships linked to ecclesial cooperation. The university provides guidance on available aids and on recognition of credits.
