Guide to regulated validation and equivalence procedures regulated by the RD 967/2014 (MECD)

 

How to request validation

Through the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports web page (MECD).

A favourable validation resolution by the MECD, conditioned by the previous overcoming of the educative complementary requirements, enables to formalise the enrolment in the University of Vigo as long as the educative offer includes that degree or an equivalent in the new degrees structure.

The educative complementary requirements can include passing an aptitude tests, performing an internship period, developing a project or assessment or passing tutored courses. When the MECD gives more than one option, the requester can freely choose by filling in the corresponding request model.

Educative complementary requirement request

Those who are interested must formalise the enrolment at least 15 days before performing the tests, the beginning of the internship period or the project or assessment presentation. The enrolment will enable to perform the tests according to the corresponding calls.

The requests must be addressed to the centre management body with the requested documentation and directly submitted to the administrative unit in the study centre.

The validation implies the recognition of the academic degree and means the validation of the professional effects intrinsic to the reference Spanish degree.
