Admission and enrollment
Admission:
The requirements for access to the proposed title are according to article 18, of Royal Decree 822/2021, of September 28:
- Possession of an official Spanish Graduate or Graduate university degree or equivalent is a condition for accessing a Master's Degree, or, where appropriate, having another University Master's degree, or titles of the same level as the Spanish Bachelor's or Master's degree issued by universities and higher education institutions in an EHEA country that in that country allow access to Master's degrees.
- In the same way, people in possession of titles from educational systems that are not part of the EHEA, which are equivalent to a Bachelor's degree, will be able to access a Master's Degree in the Spanish university system, without the need for homologation of the title, but verification by of the university of the level of training that they imply, as long as in the country where said title was issued it allows access to university postgraduate level studies. In no case will access through this route imply the homologation of the previous degree held by the person concerned or its recognition for other purposes than that of carrying out the Master's degree.
Each Master may have its specific access requirements, collected in the information that appears on the Master's website (Access and Enrollment).
The Rey Juan Carlos University does not have specific admission regulations, but is governed by article 16 of Royal Decree 1393/2007, modified by Royal Decree 861/2010, of July 2. Each title has its own general access criteria and special access tests.
Admission to the Master's Degrees will be carried out through a selection process; in some cases, that process may involve a selection test. The Direction of the Master will communicate to the interested parties what the selection test will consist of, as well as the exact date and place of its realization through this application and by means of an e-mail notice.
Enrollment of new students in the Master's Degrees of the Rey Juan Carlos University is done, through the Internet, in a single enrollment period during the month of July, on the dates established and published in the University website.
In the case of vacant places in the University Master's degrees offered in the pre-registration of the ordinary term of July, a second extraordinary registration period is opened, after the corresponding pre-registration period, on the dates established in the month of September.

Mobility programs
University Master's degrees, due to their duration and characteristics, in general do not specifically contemplate the mobility of their students. However, the Rey Juan Carlos University has different mobility programs for both students and University workers (PDI and PAS) and has procedures for collecting and analyzing information on these mobility programs. The management of all the mobility programs of the University is centralized in the Office of the Vice President for International Relations and any student of the University can participate in them.

Renewal of accreditation
The renewal of the accreditation represents the culmination of the implementation process of the official Bachelor's and Master's degrees registered in the Register of Universities, Centers and Degrees (RUCT). The renewal of the accreditation of official bachelor's and master's degrees is organized in three phases: self-assessment report, external visit and final assessment.
In the first phase, the university describes and assesses the status of the degree with respect to the established criteria and guidelines. The result is the Self-Assessment Report (IA) that is presented. The second and third phases are carried out by a group of evaluators external to the evaluated title.”
