See conditional admission
In order to get students beginning classes as soon as possible, the law allows them to have a conditional admission. This will mean the student will be able to register at the university without handing in/having all the required documents. This special type of agreement between CEU-UCH and the student is agreed through the following rules and conditions:
- You will only be able to apply for this status under the conditions of the Education Law LOMCE
- The student will take on this status voluntarily and under their own responsibility
- An essential requirement is that the student bring/hands in proof to CEU Cardenal Herrera University that they have requested the credential/validation/official approval of their documents by the Ministry of Education or equivalent
- The student’s enrolment will not be confirmed and will not take full academic effect until the Ministry of Education or equivalent approves their request and the student has provided the Administration Office with proof of this decision
-
During the time that the student has ‘conditional admission’ status, the student will have the same rights and responsibilities as other CEU-UCH students, except the following:
- Until their enrolment has been made official they will not be able to receive any type of Certificate of their results or qualification from CEU-UCH that reflects the studies they are currently doing.
- Until the student is officially enrolled they will not be able to request an academic record transfer to another Spanish university
- In all certificates or documents that may be produced by CEU-UCH for the student they will have to certify that the student is of ‘conditional admission’ status.
- As the student takes on voluntarily the status of ‘conditional admission’ they accept the risk that, ultimately, the Ministry of Education could refuse their request. If this situation occurs, the student will have to leave the university at the end of the semester, without claiming any compensation from CEU-UCH. The university will not be able to produce an academic certificate given that the student did not complete the legal requirements for accessing the university.
- If the Ministry of Education or authorities deny the student’s request, CEU-UCH will not be able to refund any payments made for the enrolment, academic procedures, or any other type of payment, regardless of the time and /or the course the student concerned has taken.

You can apply for the bank account via the Hospitality Application and go directly to the office to sign the contract on the selected date.
- Managing the academic documentation. To be enrolled in a Spanish university, international students must obtain a document that proves they have successfully completed their secondary education. We are aware that administrative procedures in a country other than yours can be complicated, so we will indicate what documentation you need to provide, we will make the request and pay the corresponding fees.
- Managing the residence documents. We will help you to organize the documentation you will need to legalize your stay in Spain. The NIE (also known as 'Número de Identificación de Extranjeros) and TIE, identification documents for foreigners that reside in Spain. Without this documentation, you will not be able to arrange all of your activities during your stay in Spain: it is needed to close a contract for your WIFI, to pay for your water- and electricity bills, and is also often required to make certain purchases. As the procedure can take a lot of time and effort, from the International Student Services we will help you to collect your documents and will make an appointment for you at the police station.

You will be able to select the desired date via the Hospitality Application.
- Language courses. After your admission, you will have access to an online platform where you can improve your Spanish (or other preferred language if Spanish is your first language). You also have the possibility to attend a Spanish course during the summer period, organized at various levels to enable each student to start at their own pace. Additionally, you are able to participate in Spanish courses throughout the year.
- Transportation. We will provide you with a Móbilis card that enables you to use bus, metro and tram during your first days in Valencia.
- Touristic information and culture. When arriving to our University, you will be given various brochures and tourist information that will help you to explore and get to know the city and your new surroundings.
