What is UNED ASISS?

It is a service of the National University of Distance Education (UNED) created for the management of access and admission of students to Spanish universities, this service is especially aimed at international students to facilitate access through accreditations and the performance of specific tests.

This service is aimed at students from the European Union and countries of international educational systems who can homologate their studies to the Spanish bachelor’s (Bachillerato in Spain) degree.

  • 2 subjects: European, Chinese or with International Bachelor. The universities of Galicia.
  • 4 subjects: Madrid, Valencia, Murcia, Extremadura, León, Salamanca, Valladolid and Burgos. In these cases, you can apply for the Bachelor’s Degree, an extra requirement.
  • 6 subjects: the rest of the universities. They are asking to make an EBAU structure, which is the same as for Spanish undergraduates (having EBAU structure does not mean having to do the same exams as the Spanish. It refers only to your choice of subjects to be submitted).

About Spanish universities

ELE (Spanish Courses)

Study Plan and Methodology

Methodology of Spanish classes

During the classes, all linguistic skills are worked on (oral and reading comprehension and oral and written expression). In addition to grammatical content, cultural and historical aspects of Spanish culture are also taught to achieve better linguistic immersion in our country. Apart from the classes, activities are carried out outside the classroom so that students can test their knowledge in real situations.

The evaluation of the students is carried out continuously through the performance of different activities and tests. In addition, the teacher performs a personal and private track through our platform.

Programme

Our academy is not only a learning centre, but also a meeting point with Spanish culture in a city famous for its historical heritage and its beauty.

The programme is structured to guarantee a total immersion in the Spanish language, with 20 lesson hours weekly which will allow you to reach fluency at a fast pace. Moreover, you will have the opportunity to sit the DELE exams, getting certificates with international recognition by the Instituto Cervantes.

Trips and extracurricular activities

Since we believe that to learn a language it is not only important to study grammar, at Academia Puerta Real we promote language learning and cultural immersion through extraordinary activities that are normally carried out outside of the classroom.

– Free activities:

  • Competitive tests to discover the city and put Spanish into practice.
  • Typical breakfast with “churros”. In this case, the student must pay only for the consumption.
  • Tapas day to get to know our gastronomy. This activity is free, in this case the student must pay only for consumption.
  • Movie day (usually once a week). Students will be able to watch films and documentaries in Spanish on the interactive screens of our center in order to learn about Spanish and Latin American culture.
  • World literature day celebration, language exchanges.

– Activities that are not free, although they may be included in some courses:

  • Guided tours of the two most important neighborhoods in Granada: the Albaicín and the Sacromonte. Both were declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1984.
  • Visit to the Alhambra and Generalife with a Spanish guide.
  • Visit to the museum of the Inquisition.
  • Visit to the Science Park, museum, BioDome and planetarium.
