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.
![](https://ele.academia-granada.es/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/PHOTO-2024-02-01-12-40-44-2.jpg)
- 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).
The modality of bachelor’s degree is a requirement that can be asked to us in some universities in Spain (not all), these are: the Universities of the Community of Madrid and those of Castile and León.
In these universities, you can get the maximum score by only performing 4 subjects. There are 4 types of Bachelor:
- Modality of Science
- Modality of Social Sciences
- Modes of Humanities
- Modality of Art
To be able to apply for this access criterion we should choose a subject of the general block, the subject of modality according to the branch of studies (sciences, art, social, humanities) and up to two optative subjects.
In order to be successful with this criterion, we can have two situations:
- Passing the general, the modality and one of the specific subjects, if you fail an optative, nothing happens, your mark will be positive.
- Have an average score of 5 points among the four subjects of the study branch. You can approve two assignments and fail two as long as the average mark of the four assignments is approved. (more than 5).

Study Plan and Methodology
Methodology of Spanish classes
![](https://ele.academia-granada.es/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/espanol-para-extranjeros-academia-puerta-real22.jpg)
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.
