Enrolment

What does this procedure consist of?

• If you want to enrol in second-year subjects but you still have Initial Stage (FI) subjects pending:

Enrolment for students who have not yet passed the Initial Stage (FI)

Students who still need to pass up to a maximum of 18 ECTS credits or 3 subjects of the total number of credits in the initial stage for the purposes of academic progress and have not exhausted the maximum period for passing it, must enrol in all failed and not sat subjects of the initial stage, but they may choose whether or not to enrol in failed subjects with a numerical mark between 4.0 and 4.9, pending the result of the curricular assessment at the appropriate time. They may complete their enrolment with compulsory or optional subjects from the next curricular block up to a total maximum of 30 ECTS credits or 4 subjects, in the case of full-time students, or up to a maximum of 18 ECTS credits per semester in the case of part-time students. Failed subjects with a numerical mark between 4.0 and 4.9, although the student may choose whether to re-enrol in them or not, are taken into account in the calculation of the maximum number of credits or subjects that can be enrolled in.

• If you want to enrol in a subject and you do not meet the established requirement:

Requisites between subjects

Prerequisites, corequisites and pre-corequisites.

• • 'A Prerequisite for B': To enrol in unit B you must have obtained a 4 or higher in unit A.
  • 'A Corequisite for B': To enrol in unit B you must have obtained a 4 or higher in unit A or be enrolled in it.
  • 'A Pre-corequisite for B': To enrol in unit B you must have previously enrolled in unit A. If you have passed unit A, you will be able to enrol in B without problems. If you have failed unit A, it will be controlled as 'A is a corequisite for B'. In other words, the first time you enrol in A, it acts as a Prerequisite for B (you cannot enrol in B) and in subsequent enrolments A acts as a Corequisite for B.

Check the requisites between subjects for your degree in the Academic Regulations ETSETB section:

• Table of subject requisites for the GRETST
• Table of subject requisites for the double degree Bachelor's + Master's in Telecommunications Engineering (PARS)
• Table of subject requisites for the GREELEC
• GEF has no established requisites between subjects

How to carry out the procedure?

You can request the Enrolment exception at your e-Secretaria, Procedures section, TO REQUEST AUTHORISATION TO ENROL IN SUBJECTS.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Check the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar for your degree: "Deadline to request Enrolment exceptions for Bachelor's degrees".

What procedure does this request follow?

The requests received will require the authorisation of the head of studies of the degree.

The acceptance of the enrolment exception does not guarantee that you will be able to enrol in the requested subject(s), because ultimately the availability of places when you carry out the self-enrolment will determine whether it is allowed or not.

Check the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar for your degree: "Resolution of the requests for Enrolment exceptions for Bachelor's degrees".

Important: whether the request is "denied" or "granted", you must read the comment accessed via the "details" icon on the far right of the screen. If you cannot see the comment because it is off the screen, move the scroll bar from left to right.

Remember that if your request for an Enrolment exception is Denied, the same request will not be accepted as a request for an Enrolment modification.

What does this procedure consist of?

Once you have passed the initial stage (FI), you can enrol in a maximum of 36 ECTS credits per semester.

If you want to enrol in more than 36 ECTS credits due to any of the following cases:

• To enrol in curricular external placements (12 ECTS credits) + subjects
• To enrol in the final thesis + subjects
• Subjects (the total number of credits exceeds 36 ECTS credits)

If you have not yet passed the initial stage (FI), the credit limit is determined by the study load you chose in your first enrolment (unless you have requested a change in your study load):

• Full-time study: 30 ECTS credits per semester
• Part-time study: 18 ECTS credits per semester

If you want to enrol in more credits than those determined by your study load for a specific situation, you must explain it in detail in the "I state" section of the application.

How to carry out the procedure?

You can request the enrolment exception at your e-Secretaria, in the procedures section, extension of credits to enrol.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Check the enrolment and academic procedures calendar for your degree: "Deadline to request enrolment exceptions for bachelor's degrees".

What procedure does this request follow?

The requests received will require the authorisation of the head of studies of the degree.

The acceptance of the enrolment exception does not guarantee that you will be able to enrol in all the subjects you have planned, because ultimately the availability of places when you carry out the self-enrolment will determine whether it is allowed or not.

Check the enrolment and academic procedures calendar for your degree: "Resolution of the requests for enrolment exceptions for bachelor's degrees".

Important: whether the request is "denied" or "granted", you must read the comment accessed via the "details" icon on the far right of the screen. If you cannot see the comment because it is off the screen, move the scroll bar from left to right.

Remember that if your request for an enrolment exception is denied, the same request will not be accepted as a request for an enrolment modification.

What does this procedure consist of?

The curricula are designed in a semester-based structure. Enrolment in subjects must always follow the ascending order of the semesters (for GRETST/PARS: 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A...) (for GREELEC and GEF, in Q1: 1A, 2A, 3A,... and in Q2: 1B, 2B, 3B,...) and no subjects from previous semesters can be left unenrolled.

If you want to enrol in a new subject:

Without enrolling in a compulsory subject, they failed with a mark lower than 4.0.

If you enrol in subjects that you have not enrolled in before, you must enrol in the compulsory subjects you have taken and failed with a numerical mark lower than 4.0.

Without enrolling in a compulsory subject from a previous semester.
You are required to enrol in all compulsory subjects not taken from semesters prior to the subjects you are enrolling in.

For bachelor's degrees, to enrol in optional subjects (except seminars), you must have all compulsory subjects enrolled in or graded with a mark of 4.0 or higher.

How to carry out the procedure?

You can request the enrolment exception at your e-Secretaria, in the procedures section, Authorisation not to enrol in a subject.

Choose the subjects you do not want to enrol in in the corresponding field, and indicate in the "I hereby state" section which subsequent subject you want to enrol in.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Check the enrolment and academic procedures calendar for your degree: "Deadline to request enrolment exceptions for bachelor's degrees".

What procedure does this request follow?

The requests received will require the authorisation of the head of studies of the degree.

Check the enrolment and academic procedures calendar for your degree: "Resolution of the requests for enrolment exceptions for bachelor's degrees."

Remember that if your request for an enrolment exception is denied, the same request will not be accepted as a request for an enrolment modification.

What does this procedure involve?

If you chose a group when registering but later consider that another group would suit you better, only if there are places available in the group you wish to switch to will you be able to change the group yourself via your e-Secretaria.

Please remember that you are responsible for ensuring that there are no timetable clashes in your enrolment as a result of registering for subjects in different groups.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Please check the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar of your degree, under "Automatic group change period".

What does this procedure involve?

If you chose a group when enrolling but later consider that another group would suit you better, but there are no places available, or if you find a fellow student who is enrolled in the group you want and vice versa, you can exchange groups via e-Secretaria.

Please remember that you are responsible for ensuring that there are no timetable clashes in your enrolment as a result of registering for subjects in different groups.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Please check the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar of your degree under "Automatic group exchange period".

What does this procedure consist of?

If you chose a group when formalising your enrolment but later need to change groups, but there are no places available in the group you want to enrol in, nor have you managed to find a peer to swap groups with, you can request a group change through your e-Secretaria, Applications section.

If you have documentation proving your need for a group change (for example, an employment contract stating your working hours and weekly dedication), you must attach it in the e-Secretaria, "Document submission" menu, choosing "Documentation justifying an e-Secretaria application" as the document type. In the "Comments" section, you must state the number of the e-Secretaria application to which the attached documentation relates.

Remember that you are responsible for ensuring that there are no timetable clashes in your enrolment as a result of enrolling in subjects in different groups.

You can make two types of group change requests:

* Joint: the group change for more than 1 subject is requested in the same application.

* Individual: The group change for only 1 subject is requested in the application.

In the case of a joint group change request, in the "Statement" section you must indicate what type of group change you are willing to accept (in the event that a group change is only possible for some of the requested subjects):

• TOTAL

You only request the group change if all requested subjects can be changed.

This implies that if there is even 1 subject for which the group cannot be changed, the group of none of the requested subjects will be modified.

If the group cannot be changed for all requested subjects, the resolution of the application will be Denied.

• PARTIAL

You request the group change for the subjects where it is possible to do so.

This implies that the group will be changed for those subjects where it is possible to do so, and the rest, where it is not possible, will remain in the same group in which you enrolled them.

As long as the group of at least 1 subject can be changed, the resolution of the application will be Accepted. You will need to check the details of the resolution to see if the application has been Accepted (all requested subjects) or Partially Accepted (at least 1 of the requested subjects).

In the case of Individual group change requests, even if you submit more than one application, each request will be treated independently.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Consult the Enrolment and academic procedures calendar of your degree for the "Deadline to request a group change (non-automatic)".

What procedure does this application follow?

Priority will be given to those requests that provide supporting documentation within the deadline and demonstrate the impossibility of attending the enrolled group.

The processing of the applications received will take into account the enrolment order (ranking) assigned to each student to formalise their enrolment.

The requests received are addressed by the subject coordinators, provided that there is scope to expand group capacity.

Until the application is approved and the group changes become effective in Prisma, you must attend the enrolled subjects and groups. If you attend classes of a timetable group in which you are not enrolled, in the event of an accident in the classroom, you may have problems with school insurance coverage.

Consult the Enrolment and academic procedures calendar of your degree "Resolution of group change requests (non-automatic)".

What does this procedure consist of?

If once your enrolment is formalised, you detect that you need to request the following:

• Adding a subject (including subject/s in your enrolment)
• Dropping a subject (removing subject/s from your enrolment)

You can request an enrolment modification through your e-Secretaria, Applications section.

If you have documentation proving your need for an enrolment modification (for example, an employment contract stating your working hours and weekly dedication), you must attach it in the e-Secretaria, "Document submission" menu, choosing "Documentation justifying an e-Secretaria application" as the document type. In the "Comments" section, you must state the number of the e-Secretaria application to which the attached documentation relates.

You can make two types of enrolment modification requests:

* Joint: adding and/or dropping more than 1 subject is requested in the same application.

* Individual: Adding and/or dropping only 1 subject is requested in the application.

In the case of a Joint enrolment modification request, in the "Statement" section you must indicate what type of modifications you are willing to accept (in the event that a group change is only possible for some of the requested subjects):

• TOTAL

You only request the enrolment modifications if all requested subjects can be changed.

This implies that if there is even 1 subject for which the enrolment modification cannot be made, none of the requested subjects will be modified.

If all requested enrolment modifications cannot be made, the resolution of the application will be Denied.

• PARTIAL

You request the enrolment modification for the subjects where it is possible to do so.

This implies that the enrolment modification will be made for those subjects where it is possible to do so, and the rest, where it is not possible, will remain the same as when you enrolled them.

As long as the modification of at least 1 subject can be made, the resolution of the application will be Accepted. You will need to check the details of the resolution to see if the application has been Accepted (all requested subjects) or Partially Accepted (at least 1 of the requested subjects).

In the case of individual enrolment modification requests, even if you submit more than one application, each request will be treated independently.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Consult the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar of your degree: "Deadline to request Bachelor's degree enrolment modifications (with right to a refund)".

What procedure does this application follow?

Priority will be given to those requests that provide supporting documentation within the deadline and demonstrate the impossibility of attending the enrolled group.

The processing of the applications received will take into account the enrolment order (ranking) assigned to each student to formalise their enrolment.

The requests received that involve skipping prerequisites between subjects or failing to enrol in unpassed subjects from lower levels will require the authorisation of the head of studies of the degree, and ultimately the availability of places.

Until the application is approved and the enrolment modifications become effective in Prisma, you must attend the enrolled subjects and groups. If you attend classes of a timetable group in which you are not enrolled, in the event of an accident in the classroom, you may have problems with school insurance coverage.

Consult the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar of your degree "Resolution of Bachelor's degree enrolment modifications (with right to a refund)".

What does this procedure consist of?

If once your enrolment is formalised you detect that you need to request to drop a subject (removing subject/s from your enrolment), you can request to "Remove subjects from enrolment" through your e-Secretaria, Applications section.

If you have documentation proving your need to request to drop subjects (for example, an employment contract stating your working hours and weekly dedication), you must attach it in the e-Secretaria, "Document submission" menu, choosing "Documentation justifying an e-Secretaria application" as the document type. In the "Comments" section, you must state the number of the e-Secretaria application to which the attached documentation relates.

If you are applying for a scholarship, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that your enrolment includes the necessary credits according to the type of scholarship you are applying for. You can consult the information about scholarships at the following link.

When can I carry out this procedure?

ATTENTION, there are 2 deadlines to do so:

1. With the right to a refund of the amount for the enrolled credits. Consult the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar of your degree, "Deadline to request Bachelor's degree dropping of subjects (with right to a refund)".
2. Without the right to a refund of the amount for the enrolled credits. Consult the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar of your degree, "Deadline to request Bachelor's degree dropping of subjects (without right to a refund)".

What procedure does this application follow?

The requests received that involve skipping prerequisites between subjects or failing to enrol in unpassed subjects from lower levels will require the authorisation of the head of studies of the degree.

Consult the Enrolment and Academic Procedures Calendar of your degree:

1. "Resolution of Bachelor's degree dropping of subjects (with right to a refund)"
2. "Resolution of Bachelor's degree dropping of subjects (without right to a refund)"

What does this procedure consist of?

If once your enrolment is formalised any impediment arises to pursue the studies you have enrolled in, you can request a resignation from enrolment through the UPC Electronic Headquarters, Sol·licitud de renúncia a la matrícula (Autotranslated). If you have documentation proving your need to request a resignation from enrolment, it must be attached to the application.

You can consult the different reasons for resignation, the appropriate documentation to justify each type of resignation, the implications for the student's academic record and the economic effect in the Procediments administratius i de gestió econòmica vinculats a la NAGRAMA. (In Catalan)

This application implies that you waive your right to receive the requested academic services, even though the University continues to provide them normally. Therefore, you remain obliged to pay the established public fees and face the consequences provided for in the event that you do not make the payment.

The acceptance of your resignation from enrolment request has the following effects:

• Discounts applied relating to study grants are removed, as the student resigns from continuing their studies.
• Bonifications and exemptions justified with documentation are applied.
• A new assessment sheet is issued, which must be paid at one of the collaborating entities within 10 days. If, after 10 days, the payment has not been made effective, the temporary suspension of the student's academic record is applied.
• The payment of mandatory enrolment fees, that is, academic record management, school insurance, learning support and other optional items, is compulsory, even when a resignation with the right to a refund is granted or if the student has not made any payment.

When can I carry out this procedure?

Consult the Enrolment and academic procedures calendar of your degree, "Deadline to request resignation from enrolment".

What procedure does this application follow?

Applications are assessed by the school management.

You will receive a notification avowal of the resolution of the resignation from enrolment request at the email address listed in your e-Secretaria within a maximum period of 15 working days.

If the reason for the resignation entitles you to a refund of public fees, you must attach the resolution of acceptance of the resignation and submit the request to the UPC Academic Management Service through the UPC Electronic Headquarters, Request for refund of public prices (Autotranslated).
