• The equivalent to an Honours Bachelor's degree from a Spanish higher-education institution.
• The equivalent to an Honours Bachelor's degree from a higher-education institution within the European Higher Education Area, valid for admission at the master's level in the country issuing the degree.
• The equivalent to an Honours Bachelor's degree from a higher-education institution outside the European Higher Education Area. In this case, degree homologation will not be required, but the university will check that the background education of the student is equivalent to the required technical background knowledge of the official university degrees of the Spanish system. In addition, the degree has to be valid for admission at the master's level in the country issuing the degree.

Since English is the official language of the program, a high level of knowledge of written and spoken English is required. This knowledge can be credited with the results of an official B2 English diploma including evaluation of the 4 areas: listening, reading, speaking and writing as, for example, the TOEFL or IELTS, the Certificate of English at the University of the Balearic Islands or Cambridge ESOL. As a general rule, the following minimum scores are required:

• TOEFL (iBT): 72 - 94
• IELTS: 5.5 - 6.5
• Cambridge ESOL: Certificate of English (FCE)
• Common European Framework (Languages): Level B2
