How Purple Friday Works

Go to the apply page to get started! Once you're there, it's an easy process: 

1. Register 

Fill out your information to receive a confirmation email. This email will be the means you need to confirm your account to continue with your official application. 

2. Upload Your Cv

Now, you have access to start your official application. All we ask at this step is to upload your CV. Your admissions officer will let you know when to submit the rest of the documents.  

3. Pay the Application Fee

After you successfully submit your CV, you need to pay the application fee. With our Purple Friday special price, instead of paying €125 for the application fee, the price reduces to the non-refundable €85 for all our programs and degrees. The fee guarantees we can process every single application fairly and maintain the highest possible standard of assessment. 

Remember, the Purple Friday special price will only be offered to those who pay the application fee from November 27 to November 30, 2020.  

4. Get Ready for Your Interview 

Following the payment, you receive an email from our admissions office for the upcoming process - your interview! Expect to get this email in the beginning weeks of December 2020. 

For creative programs:

You receive an invitation to schedule an online interview with us.  

For technical programs:

You receive an invitation with instructions for our entrance test. 

After we receive a confirmation for the test completion, we send you an invitation to schedule an online interview with us, where we discuss your results. 

5. Await the Decision 

This is the hardest part - you have to wait until we get back to you with your application and feedback results.

6. Ready, Set, Go!

Once you receive the final word from us that you have been officially accepted, you automatically are granted the benefit from Purple Friday - €3,000 off the tuition fee. Additionally, you are considered for one of our prestigious scholarships.

Now, you can pack your bags for the adventure of a lifetime!

Common Faqs

We know it’s a crazy time in the world to make a big decision and move to a different country, but we make it easy. Here are the following most common questions from potential students. 

Is the class experience offline or online? 

At this moment, our campus is open and we are continuing classes in an offline/online format. We encourage all our students to come to Barcelona to enjoy offline classes for the best learning experience. We will continue this format unless there are governmental regulations put in place.

When are the starting dates? 

Our programs run for an entire calendar year, from September to September. This means you have the opportunity to move to Barcelona and start your degree at the beginning of each module - that means every three weeks. We advise you to start at the beginning of the year, after our spring break, or the most popular choice, in September.

Are the classes in English? 

Yes! All classes are in English and taught by today’s leading experts in their industry and academia from around the world.

What other documents do I need to submit? 

For now, you only need to submit your CV for your application to be reviewed. Your admissions officer will tell you when to submit all the other documents.
