Admission Tests

For the purposes of pre-admission and admission, the evaluation of the candidate will be made using 0 to 10 points, taking into account the following criteria and percentages:

Academic record of the student's route of origin: 60%

Multiple-choice psychotechnical test: 10%

This test consists of an assessment of competences/skills related to: abilities in intellectual work, attitudes towards cooperation and teamwork, time and resource management. We will try to determine if the candidate has sufficient motivation, training and knowledge, skills, aptitudes, communication skills, extracurricular activities and future interests necessary to be admitted as a student of the Bachelor's Degree in Digital and Multimedia Design at the Antonio de Nebrija University.

English level test: 10%

In addition to the competences established in the Bachelor's Degree in Digital and Multimedia Design, we have included another related to the adequate knowledge of the English language, both oral and written. To this end, the Vice Rector's Office for Academic Planning has established a series of strategies of a diverse nature to facilitate the acquisition of said competence by students, among which are the use of materials in English and the programming of subjects in English.

In order to know the students' real level of knowledge of the English language, the Institute of Modern Languages will design a language placement test. Based on the results of this test, students will simultaneously take the chosen Bachelor's Degree, and depending on each student's level, the “Diploma in English Professional Skills”.

The English level tests consist of a written exam with multiple choice questions, oral and written comprehension and use of the language, with a duration of 60 minutes. They are taken in person or online, and are held in computer rooms on each campus, with professors from the Institute of Modern Languages. Depending on the results of this test, the student will be placed at the corresponding level. The minimum level one can access at the beginning is B1.

The student who decides to take the subjects in English must reach a B2 level in the test in order to guarantee that this language can be the vehicular language of his/her academic program and, therefore, that he/she can achieve the skills connected to each subject. If the student does not pass this placement test, they must take the subjects in Spanish.

It will not be necessary for the candidate to take the language placement test if they provide a document proving their English level. The level accreditation will be validated through the official degrees established by the table of certificates accepted by ACLES, and they will also be reviewed by the Institute of Modern Languages.

Specific test of knowledge about the Bachelor's Degree in Digital and Multimedia Design. It contains multiple-choice questions and consists mainly of specific contents of some of the main areas of general knowledge (basic principles of design, knowledge about content creation, basic principles of the multimedia and digital field) that will be studied in the degree chosen by the candidate, in addition to other elements common to all degrees. This test will weigh 20% of the total.

In the event that an applicant presents any clinical indicator, an in-depth interview will be carried out with the psychologists of the Department of Psychopedagogical Guidance, and if necessary, they will be sent for clinical evaluation by the specialized teachers in Psychiatry or/and Clinical Psychology.
