When you come to Alicante and start your courses with us, in order to begin all required paperwork to register for PCE exams and apply for University entry, you should bring with you original documents of:
High School transcripts (last three years at least).
High school report card with final/average marks.
Official High School degree diploma.
Passport or ID for EU citizens or TIE
Once in Spain, you will need to ask for a legal translation of these documents in order for us to be able to apply to the Spanish Ministry of Education for the HS equivalence on your behalf. We inform you that we have a sworn translation service. If you should need this service, please write to
Preparation classes for PCE exams for University entry will be taught in Spanish and start in January. Therefore, it is essential to have an excellent knowledge of the Spanish Language. The preparation classes for the PCE exam will be held in the afternoons in Alicante city centre, not on campus, and the official exams will take place in May at the UNED in Elche.
Essential for NON-EU citizens:
Remember that official documents must be legalized and require a sworn translation into Spanish.
Legalization done with "Apostilla de la Haya" is the easiest way, but not all countries offer this (Rusia, EEUU for example have "Apostilla de la Haya"). But in other countries, such as Argelia you have to apply for a consular legalization.
Please take a look at our Ministry of Foreign Affair's website for further information about Legalizations

To sum up the steps are:
1.- Legalize your documents (Apostilla de la Haya o Consular legalization)
2.- Get a sworn translation of your documents by a sworn translator in Spain
