Bachelor’s Degree in Global Communication

About the course

A four-year (240 ECTS) degree in communication with an international and intercultural focus, taught entirely in English on the Cantoblanco campus in Madrid.

Entry requirements for Irish students

• Under Spanish law (Royal Decree 534/2024) Leaving Cert holders do not sit the Spanish PAU, but must meet the rules for university entry 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). Comillas does not publish Irish-specific rules; it asks for school records equivalent to the years before the final year, so confirm with admissions which Irish documents to send and whether a UNEDasiss accreditation is needed for enrolment.
• Admission is by Comillas’s own tests in English: a multiple-choice general knowledge and current affairs test, a written motivation essay and a personal interview. Students studying outside Spain can instead apply using SAT scores.
• The programme page asks for a good command of English, and all candidates sit Comillas’s written English test even if they hold a certificate. Leaving Cert English is not listed as an exemption.
