hello , i'm currently studying at the campus in murcia . the curriculum for both campuses are pretty much the same but here's information which might be useful

for first year the subjects have midterm and final exam . so i strongly advise to be on track from day 1 such as note taking , understanding the content and so on as the exams approach pretty quickly and things get more difficult as the year goes on

if you happen to fail a subject you can retake it in the july retake period . but if you have to retake the whole subject again for next year then the cost would be around 220 euros per credit . so retaking 6 credit subject would cost around 1320 or 1400 euros total

don't hesitate asking older students for note or anything that might seem useful

every professor is different with how they explain , their slides and the way they run their exams . which would help so much if you are aware of that from the start so again don't hesitate to ask older students

its better to study smart and not hard . so understand what each subject requires for its method of study

the exams have a negative marking system , for example an answer wrong would cost you 0.33 of a right answer so choose your answers carefully on the exam

Hi, I have one question, for the campus in Murcia, the lessons are in English or in Spanish? I thought lessons are in Spanish only. Is that correct? Thanks!
