Degree Offerings

ULPGC provides around 5,000 new‑access places across 52 degree programmes (38 single degrees and six double‑degree programmes offered on‑site in Gran Canaria, two in Lanzarote and one in Fuerteventura; five degrees are offered remotely).

New degrees for the upcoming academic year: Psychology (remote) and Geography, Territorial Planning and Environment.

Pre‑registration Period

Ordinary pre‑registration opens June 12 and closes July 2.
Applicants may select up to six degree programmes in order of preference.

The allocation system assigns each student the highest‑ranked programme for which a place is available; any lower‑ranked choices are automatically removed once a slot is secured.

Students must keep track of the pre‑registration calendar and enrollment deadlines, as failure to enrol within the stipulated period will result in the loss of the right to register for the chosen programme.

Specific Access Tests for Physical Activity and Sport

Candidates wishing to enroll in the Degree in Physical Activity and Sport Sciences must pass specific entrance exams administered exclusively by the Faculty of Physical Activity and Sport Sciences.

The first call took place in April; the second call is scheduled for June 10.
