Once the official recognition has been requested, the applicants must contact UNEDasiss to ask for a certification of completed pre-university studies in their origin country. It is not necessary to wait for the certification resolution from the Ministry to do this step. It can be requested presenting the certificate application note or the digital voucher which proves that the applicant has presented the documents for recognition. In this certification, there will be a grade in between 5 and 6 points, according to the grades obtained in the official recognition of bachillerato or an equivalent carried out in a foreign country.

- To ask for a question relative to this procedure or any other managed by the UNEDasiss, make a face-to-face appointment or set a video call in Contact UNEDasiss.
3. Raise the university entrance grade
It is important to know that, specially when aiming to access certain highly requested degrees, that the university access is calculated with a base of 14 points. Therefore, the Specific Competence Tests (PCE) must be carried out if the applicants wish to raise their access grade (obtained with the UNEDasiss official recognition).
