Marbella meets London, academically speaking
Press play and you’ll see why MIUC partners with the University of West London. Their students rank them the No.1 London university for overall satisfaction in the National Student Survey 2025, they’re placed 41st in the Guardian University Guide 2026, named the best modern university in London by The Times and Sunday Times 2026, and rated 5th in the UK for student experience by the Daily Mail University Guide.

Tuition Fees
The tuition fee for the full academic year is 21,300 €. This fee covers all course registrations, tuition and standard study materials, full access to the Blackboard learning platform, complete use of the library, visa and immigration support, and 24/7 student assistance throughout both the Autumn and Spring semesters.
Students are required to register for their courses during the first week of the semester. Choosing not to attend later in the term does not remove the financial or academic responsibilities for courses in which a student is already enrolled. Any course that a student wishes to drop must be formally de-registered through Student Services.
All students are responsible for familiarising themselves with the University’s published regulations and ensuring full compliance.
Entry Requirements
We operate a Rolling Admission policy, which means applications are reviewed as soon as they are received, without a fixed deadline.
To be considered for a master’s degree, applicants must hold a recognised bachelor’s degree or an equivalent qualification from an accredited national or international institution. A minimum of two years of relevant postgraduate work experience is expected, although every application is assessed individually and prior experience may be recognised through our evaluation procedures.
Applicants who have not previously studied in an English-speaking school or country must provide proof of English proficiency. MIUC accepts IELTS with an overall score of 6.5 and no component below 5.5, TOEFL iBT with a minimum score of 95, the Cambridge C1 Certificate, or a passing result in the MIUC English Test.
The application must include a copy of your passport or national ID, a recent passport-sized digital photograph, evidence of English language proficiency where required, your bachelor’s degree certificate and full academic transcripts officially translated into English or Spanish, and a Statement of Purpose of approximately 500 words outlining why you wish to study at MIUC, your expectations, and your future aspirations.
In accordance with current Spanish immigration regulations, international students are required to apply for a student visa at least two months prior to the start of their course, so early preparation is strongly advised.
