Timetables and exams
More information
Applicants interested in studying the Bachelor's Degree in Veterinary Medicine of a general nature at UCAM must have completed the Baccalaureate in Health Sciences. Regardless, students are expected to have a knowledge of Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics and Biology.
In addition to meeting the previous requirement, students must provide proof of the minimum level of English and Spanish required (B1 level), according to the European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). However, B2 level is recommended. No level certificate will be required for students who are native speakers of a language, i.e., if a student is a native English speaker, he or she must only provide a B1 level certificate in Spanish.
The final grade obtained in the PAU/EBAU will be taken into account for candidates who have taken this examination. In the event that the number of applications during the temporary allocation phase exceeds the number of places offered, or in the case of candidates with identical qualifications, the date of submission of the application and the average marks obtained in the baccalaureate and/or EBAU will be considered for the allocation of places.
In the case of applicants with an International Baccalaureate, European Baccalaureate, both in the European Union and outside the European Union and/or in possession of a qualification equivalent to a baccalaureate from education systems in European Union countries or countries with which international agreements have been established, the final grade obtained in their credential or equivalent document will be taken into account, in addition to a personal interview to check that their language skills in Spanish and English are equivalent to a B1 level, although we recommend a B2 level.
