What do I have to do to get into the university of Barcelona?

<p>I really want to attend this university. What kind of grades do i need? I am about to be a senior in high school. I know how to speak Spanish and I know that the university is in Catalan. Catalan and Spanish are very similar. Are there exams that I need to take to get in? </p>

<p>Do you need instructions on how to do a Google search? Here’s what I found in less than 60 seconds…</p>

<p>Students who are not EU students or who do not hold either the European Baccalaureate (EB) or the International Baccalaureate’ (IB) must sit the official Spanish university entrance examination (‘Prueba de Acceso a la Universidad’ or PAU) and must enrol for this exam at the Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED), the official body that verifies applicants’ eligibility to Spanish university studies.</p>

<p>(Generally speaking, the deadline for applications is the first week of July in the year in which the applicant wishes to begin
studies).</p>

<p>Not having fluency in Catalan and Spanish is going to be a real hindrance to your success because courses are taught in whichever language the instructor chooses. It was enough to put us off despite my D’s fluency in speaking Spanish.</p>
