Application

How to apply to study in Spain

Move from search to a traceable application without losing your selected programme or source.

1. Understand the Spain route

Students apply to the institution. Public-university bachelor's places are allocated through regional pre-registration (preinscripción) calls with fixed windows, while private universities and business schools usually run their own admission rounds. Keep document legalisation and translation requirements in view, because the visa process depends on the admission letter.

2. Prepare and confirm

Check the institution's current deadline and document requirements. Programme rules take precedence over general guidance.

3. Continue to the portal

The Apply button opens the central SIT Connect student portal with studyatspain, studyatspain.com and the selected programme attached. SIT Connect then confirms the correct official submission route.
