As established in Article 16 of RD 1393/2007, modified by RD 861/2010, students who meet any of the following conditions may access these studies:

• Have an official Spanish university degree or other degree issued by an institution of higher education of the European Higher Education Area that grants access to Master's studies in the country issuing said degree.
• Graduates of educational systems outside the European Higher Education Area may access without the need for validation of their degrees, after verification by the University that they can accredit a level of studies equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish university degrees and that these grant access to postgraduate education in the country issuing said degree. Access through this route will not imply, in any case, the homologation of the previous degree of the interested party, nor its recognition for other purposes than that of taking the Master's degree. In the cases in which the homologation of any degree, diploma or study obtained abroad is necessary to access the University, the Antonio de Nebrija University may conditionally admit students who accredit having submitted the corresponding application for homologation while the approval procedure is resolved.
• In the case of students with special educational needs derived from disability, the need for possible curricular adaptations, itineraries or alternative studies will be assessed.

In general, the admission documentation must be submitted to the Admissions Department.

The student must provide the originals or certified copies of the submitted documentation, within the period established by the University, in order to formalize his/her enrollment. Any inaccuracy, falsity or omission of information, statement or document provided by the student in the admission period will entail the impossibility of continuing to exercise their rights from the moment the University has proof of these events, and proceed to cancel the application for admission submitted and the place awarded, notwithstanding any criminal, civil or administrative responsibilities that may arise.

In order to access the official master's degrees, it is necessary to submit the following documentation:

• Completed Admission Application.
  - Download the Application in PDF
• Identification document (D.N.I) or valid passport.
• 1 passport-size photograph.

• Certified photocopy of official diploma issued by a foreign higher education institution belonging to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) that grants access, in the issuing country, to official master's degree studies.
• Certified photocopy of official diploma issued in a foreign educational system not belonging to the EHEA. In this case, access will be conditioned by the verification that the studies completed correspond to a level of studies equivalent to that of the official Spanish university degrees and that they grant access to the official master's degrees in the country in which the diploma was issued. This procedure does not imply, in any case, the homologation of the previous degree, nor its recognition for any purpose other than to access the master's studies.
• If necessary, a letter issued by the University in which the student has completed the degree that grants access to Master's studies in the country issuing the diploma.

In the event that the studies with which the pre-registration for the Master's degree is accessed are completed in a Foreign Higher Education institution, both the diploma and the academic record (grades) must be official and issued by the competent authorities, in accordance with the legal system of the country of origin.

If the number of applicants exceeds the number of places offered, the student's academic record will be taken as an admission criterion (grade average).

Therefore, anyone interested in accessing the studies of Master's Degree in Internationalization of Companies must submit, without exception, their academic record, as it will be the grade average therein that will decide their admission to the Master's degree if the number of applications exceeds the number of places offered.

In addition to the evaluation of the academic merits provided by the candidate, students must take the following tests that are included in the admission process.

1. Foreign language or Spanish language level test (for degrees in which it is necessary and specifically indicated in the degree's report): 10%

In order to know the students' real level of knowledge of the foreign language, the Institute of Modern Languages carries out a language placement test. The tests consist of a written exam with multiple-choice questions, oral and written comprehension, and use of the language. They are taken face-to-face or online.

It will not be necessary for the candidate to take the language placement test if they submit certification that proves knowledge of the Spanish or foreign language at B2 level of the CEFR. The accreditation of this level will be validated through the official diplomas admitted by the table of certificates admitted by ACLES and/or Instituto Cervantes. Valid for one year.

2. Personal Interview: 90%

This interview is carried out by the Program Director or university advisors, and is aimed at verifying the suitability of the candidate and his/her profile regarding the degree.
