And prospective students whose work and professional experience is related to the skills inherent in the Bachelor's Degree to be studied.

Documents from foreign universities or institutions will require diplomatic legalisation of the original documents, except in the case of countries that are parties to the Hague Convention, in which case the postcript will suffice.

They must betranslated by the Language Interpretation Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or by official organisations recognised in Spain (UNESCO, Ibero-American Education Office, etc.) or by a duly authorised or registeredsworn translator.

Work and professional experience:

Certification from the General Treasury of the Social Security stating the company, employment category (contribution group) and period of employment.

Work contract or certification from the company where the work experience was acquired, specifically stating the duration of the periods of the contract, the activity carried out and the time interval in which the activity was carried out.

The deadline for applying for the Credit Recognition Study and submitting the academic documentation indicated in the previous section is from the beginning of the admission period for the next academic year until the last working day of September of the current year.

Once the Application for Credit Recognition Study and the academic documentation required to do so have been submitted, the Academic Committeewill prepare a "Preliminary Study" without administrative validity, with information on the credits that could be recognised.

The "Preliminary Study" will be sent to the e-mail address provided in the Application for Credit Recognition Study.

For this "Preliminary Study" to become binding and therefore the transfer and recognition of credits on the student's academic transcript, the student must meet the following requirements:

To have taken and passed the Admission Tests established by UDIT.
To have received the Letter of Admission for the academic year in which he/she is going to enrol.
To have formalised the enrolment at administrative and academic level, enrolling for a minimum of 30 credits, excluding those that can be recognised.
Accept the Preliminary Study formally and in personat the Academic Secretary's Office , by means of the student's signature.

Once these requirements have been met, the Academic Committee will certify that the student meets the established requirements (admission, enrolment, documentation, etc.) and will draw up the Binding Report on Credit Recognition.

The student will be notified by the Academic Committee of the existence of the Binding Report so that it can be accepted by the Academic Secretary's Office and possible modifications can be made to the official enrolment for the current academic year.

When the Binding Credit Recognition Report is accepted by the student and the transfer of credits is made in the official academic transcript, the student is exempt from taking the corresponding subject recognised in the Degree enrolled at UDIT.

The subject recognised in the current Degree will be graded with the numerical grade provided by the subject for which it is recognised in the Official Academic Certification of the centre of origin.

If there is no numerical grade in the Official Academic Certification, in the Official Academic Record of the UDIT Degree, it will appear as recognised but without a numerical grade, which means that it will not be included in the final average grade.

For economic purposes, the student may benefit from a discount of up to seventy-five percent of the value of the recognised credits, having to pay the remaining amount. UDIT reserves the right to exclude this clause in certain programmes. Please consult your advisor.
