In any case, an email address must be provided. The results of the admission process will be sent this email address, along with information about the registration process, how the waiting lists work, etc.

Full up-to-date information about when and how to submit the admissions application for each academic year, in addition to the documents that must be provided, etc., can be found in:

Further information


Adjudicación de plazas

A place is offered based on the number of places made available for each course and the marks achieved by the students. It must also be noted that the total number of places on offer for each course is distributed through a general quota [pupils from 'Bachillerato', Vocational Training or those with pre-university studies from international education systems] and reserved quotas [disabled students, high level/performance sportsmen/women, the over 25/45s or 40s, university graduates].

The admission lists are published on the official University of Zaragoza bulletin board [sede.unizar.es]. This publication is considered to be the official notification for the interested parties, but has no definitive effect for the same should the University detect any errors therein, in which case modifications will be made to it.

The following will be published for each undergraduate degree course:

  • An alphabetical list of the admitted students, including names and surnames, admission mark and quota
  • A waiting list in ranking order, including names and surnames, admission mark and quota

The admissions results will also be communicated via a personalised letter (in PDF) which will be sent to the email address provided in the admissions application. This letter will include information related to the registration process and its deadlines, personal passwords, how the waiting lists work, etc.

Further information


Matrícula

The students on the admitted list must register on the dates established for each period in the official academic calendar.

Further information


Calls for those on the waiting lists

Should a student be admitted to a degree course that is not their first choice, they shall stay on the waiting list for all the courses chosen as priorities.

Once the first registration period is over, those centres with places still vacant because not all the initially admitted students have registered will make a series of public calls to people on the waiting lists. Each call will cover those students on the waiting list who are entitled to register. At this point, they will no longer be called for those other studies that they applied for admission with a lower order of preference. 

It is important to note that if registration is not completed within the dates given, then all rights to hold the place offered will be lost. Thus, it is very important to pay attention to the calls, as the interested parties will not be informed by telephone.
