About the course

Four-year, 240-ECTS business administration degree taught in English at the Madrid-Vicálvaro campus. It covers the core areas of business, such as accounting, finance, marketing, management and economics.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • Under Spanish law (Royal Decree 534/2024), Irish Leaving Cert students do not sit the Spanish entrance exam (PAU). You must meet the rules for getting into university in Ireland (as a guide, UCD asks for six subjects with at least H5 in two and O6/H7 in the other four, including English and Irish). UNEDasiss converts your Leaving Cert to a Spanish score out of 10. URJC publishes nothing specific on the Leaving Cert, so confirm with admissions.
  • Places are ranked by admission score. You can raise your score towards 14 by taking UNED PCE subject tests. UNEDasiss recommends at least two subjects that the university gives weight to for this degree.
  • The programme page does not state an English certificate requirement. Native speakers are usually exempt, but confirm with URJC that Leaving Cert English is accepted.

How to apply

  1. Check Irish matriculationMake sure your Leaving Cert meets the minimum entry rules for Irish universities (for example, UCD asks for six subjects including English and Irish, with at least two H5s).
  2. Apply to UNEDasissApply for UNEDasiss accreditation once applications open in February 2027 (about €36). If you want PCE subject tests to raise your score, register for them early.
  3. Pre-enrol with URJCComplete URJC pre-enrolment (expected early summer 2027), choosing Business Administration and Management (English) at Madrid-Vicálvaro. Confirm the exact dates on URJC’s admission page.
  4. Accept and enrolWatch for URJC’s admission lists, then complete enrolment (matrícula) and pay fees by the stated deadline.
Deadline for Irish/EU applicants: URJC’s 2027 pre-enrolment dates could not be checked. Spanish public universities usually run pre-enrolment in early summer. Before that you need your UNEDasiss accreditation (applications open February to November, so apply early to have your score in time). Check URJC’s admission page for the exact 2027 dates..

Costs

  • URJC is a public university, so EU students pay the same as Spanish students. URJC’s own price table could not be checked for this page. As a rough guide, another Madrid public university (UC3M) charged about €1,015–€1,241 for 60 credits in 2026/27. URJC’s figure may differ. Budget about €36 for the UNEDasiss accreditation. Confirm the exact price on URJC’s public prices (precios públicos) page.
This is a low-fee public university degree taught in English, but it has only 65 places, ranked on your converted score. Start your UNEDasiss application early.
