What are you looking for?
Both the admission process and the tuition fee are the same for European students and for students from non-European countries. However, it is necessary to take into account some aspects related to academic documentation, visas, etc. which we mention below:
visa
If you have the nationality of a country in the European Union (EU), the EEA (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) or Switzerland: you can work and live in Spain with a valid identity document; but if the stay is longer than 90 days, once in Spain you must apply for registration in the Central Register of Foreigners. This registration leads to a certificate of registration being issued and includes a NIE number.
More informationLegalize documentation
If your degree and your academic certificate are not issued by a member state of the European Union (or Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Switzerland), you will need to complete all legalization procedures for both documents. You must do this process in the country where the title was issued and before you leave the country, as it is not possible to do this procedure in Barcelona.

How to apply for your visa?
You must request this document directly from the police station:
If you do not find yourself in any of these categories, you only have to go to the Spanish consular representation in your country to be informed about the legal requirements for entry and permission to study in Barcelona.
The website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will help you find the nearest Spanish embassy or consulate.
To apply for a visa you need a letter of acceptance from TecnoCampus, which can be obtained from the International Office (rrii@tecnocampus.cat). In order to send you the acceptance letter, it is essential that you are correctly registered with our University (see section a).
The process of obtaining a visa can be quite lengthy, so it is recommended to do so in advance.
The visa must be a study visaant (type D). Any other type of visa does not entitle you to the subsequent use of your Alien Identity Card (TIE).
