What is the Pathway?

Two phases, one destination: your Spanish degree.

Most degrees in Spain are taught in Spanish, so before anything academic can happen, you need the language. The Pathway Programme is built around that reality — it takes you from your current level of Spanish, however low, to sitting the PCE exams that get you into university.

You don't need to speak Spanish to start

The Pathway starts with a 12-week intensive Spanish course, and continues from there into Phase 2. You can join with no prior Spanish at all — or, just as well, if you already know some Spanish.

One weekly timetable, one fixed academic path

During Phase 1, your class schedule is assigned week by week — you'll receive next week's timetable in advance. Once Phase 2 begins, the academic timetable is fixed by the school for the full preparation period.

Official exam prep, built in

If you'd like certified proof of your level, we can also prepare you for official Spanish exams — SIELE or DELE. This is optional and not included in the programme price.

Before we plan your route

What we need to build your personalised study plan

To give you a personalised quote, and then to prepare your admission plan and recommend which subjects to take, we start by asking for six things.

  • The national system your diploma belongs to (Moroccan bac, French Lycée, or another curriculum)
  • Your final average grade
  • The name of your high school diploma
  • Whether your diploma is already homologated
  • The university, or city, where you'd like to study in Spain
  • The degree you want to study

FAQ

FAQ

Do you help with my student visa?

We prepare the Letter of Acceptance you need for your visa application once we've received your enrolment and payment. The legal visa process itself is handled directly with your embassy — we're not part of that process, but the document we issue is what you'll submit there.

What happens if my visa is refused?

We refund what you paid, minus a €200 administrative fee. Any bank charges are the student's responsibility.

Do I need to already speak Spanish to join?

No. Students join Phase 1 with no prior Spanish at all — the intensive course is designed to take you from zero up to B1 level.

What if I need more time before starting Phase 2?

You can add extra weeks of Spanish before Phase 2 begins, at an extra cost, if you need more time to reach the required level.

How many subjects will I prepare for the PCE?

Usually between 1 and 6, depending on your diploma and the degree you want to study. We confirm the right number once we've reviewed your academic background.

What's not included in the programme price?

Official PCE examination fees (€150–€305), optional SIELE/DELE exam fees, additional textbooks during the Spanish course, and accommodation.

Does the programme include the UNEDasiss process?

Yes — we support you through the whole process, including registration for the exams. What's not included are the official examination fees themselves, usually €150–€305 depending on the number of subjects you're examined in.

Do you help with university admission once the programme is finished?

Yes, we help with that process. The student is the one who has to complete the enrolment, since it's usually done with a digital certificate and the exact steps depend on the destination university — but we do help you through it.
