Several degree programmes offered by member universities of the Compostela Group of Universities are among the most demanding in terms of admission scores in Spain for the 2026–2027 academic year, reflecting the appeal of academic programmes linked to science, technology and health.

University admission data following the 2026 Spanish University Entrance Examination (Prueba de Acceso a la Universidad, PAU) place degree programmes from three member universities of the Compostela Group of Universities among those requiring the highest entry grades in the Spanish higher education system.

The University of Seville, the University of Málaga and the University of Salamanca offer academic programmes that rank among the most sought-after by students, particularly in fields related to science, engineering and health disciplines. These degrees reflect the growing interest of new generations of students in strategic areas for scientific and technological development.

High admission scores are also an indicator of the academic reputation and attractiveness of certain fields of knowledge. The strong demand for these programmes is linked both to the quality of the education provided and to the professional and research opportunities associated with these areas.

The presence of CGU member universities among the institutions offering the most competitive degree programmes highlights the diversity and excellence of the network, made up of universities committed to high-quality higher education, academic innovation and preparing students to meet the challenges of a global society.
