I am not going to get to Granada
in time for the level test - what can I do?
You need to let us know by e-mail (info@clm.ugr.es)
and also say when you will arrive. We will tell you when
you can take the test but bear in mind that you will miss
classes and these hours will not be made up for.
I want to enrol on more than
one course - do I have to make a transfer for each application
fee or can I do it all in the same one?
You just need to make one transfer for the sum of the
application fees - it works out cheaper like this as you
only have to pay bank charges once. Please make sure that
the student´s name is clearly specified on the bank
transfer papers.
I have paid the application
fee but for personal reasons I will not be able to take
the course I have booked for - what can I do?
You need to send us a fax or e-mail explaining why you
won't be able to attend and attach some form of official
justification. You can transfer the amount paid to another
course within the same academic year.
I have paid for a course and
will never be able to go to CLM - will you reimburse my
money?
The application will not be reimbursed for reasons beyond
our control, but can be transferred. The course fee is
only reimbursed for valid reasons and by presenting the
appropriate documentation.
¿Do I need to be a member
of the university community to take a language course at
CLM?
No, anybody can study at CLM but students should be
at least 16 years old and have B.U.P., E.S.O. or equivalent
(General Certificate of Education).
What is the minimum and maximum
age for students registering at CLM?
Students have to be at least 16 years old and there
is no maximum age.
What is the end-of-course certificate
like?
The stamp of the University of Granada and Centro de
Lenguas Modernas appears on the certificate. It also states
the name of the course, duration, dates, level reached
and grade obtained.
Do I have to attend all classes?
Students who have not attended at least 80% of the programmed
classes will not be entitled to take the final exam or
a certificate.
What are your bank details so
I can make the transfer?
Our current account number is IBAN ES32 2031.0000.01.0101875182,
held at Caja Granada. The SWIFT code is CECAES MM031.
The postal address is Plaza Villamena Nº1, C.P.18001-
Granada, Spain.
Please make sure that the student´s name clearly
specified on the bank transfer papers.
The Centro de Lenguas Modernas will only recognise as
payment the amount received. The student must meet any
bank charges incurred.
I can't find / have lost my
certificate - can you send me a duplicate?
The CLM only issues students with one certificate per
course. In order to obtain a copy of the certificate,
students will have to pay the current fees.. You should
send a bank transfer in euros to our current account IBAN
ES32 2031.0000.01.0101875182 SWIFT CODE CECAES MM031 held
at Caja de Granada, and payable to the Centro de Lenguas
Modernas. Any bank charges incurred must be met by you.
You need to send us a copy of the bank transfer by fax
(+34 958 220 844) together with the address where you
want it sent. Certificates normally take two weeks but
if you require it urgently, please let us know.
I need to find accommodation
- can you book a room for me in a flat or with a family?
The first thing you have to do is contact the person
in charge of accommodation by e-mail alojamiento@clm.ugr.es.
We cannot book you a room until you get to Granada when
we will give you information on what is available and
you choose yourself. We suggest you spend the first couple
of nights in a hotel or guesthouse - you will find a list
on our web page (www.clm-granada.com) - until we find
you somewhere to live.
If I pay the application fee
and my visa request is refused, can I get my money back?
The application fee will not be reimbursed if your visa
request has been turned down - the only thing we can do
is transfer this money to a later course in the same academic
year.
Can I take different levels
of the D.E.L.E. exam in the same exam session?
No, this is not possible.
I want to take the D.E.L.E.
exam and don't know which level to register for - how can
I find out?
You can view previous exam papers on the web page of
the Instituto Cervantes: http://diplomas.cervantes.es
Can I register for the D.E.L.E.
exam from my country?
No problem. You can find the registration form on our
web page and all you need to do is fill it in, make a
bank transfer to cover the exam fees and send us two photocopies
of your passport by fax or post within the registration
dates.
When does the next Spanish course
start?
You will find a list of all our courses on our web page
with information on dates and prices.
When I send in the application
fee, how do I know there are still places on the course
I want to take?
We take students up till the day before the level test
for any course. If the course is full up, we will reimburse
the application fee.
Can you help me with my visa
application?
The only thing we can do is issue you with a reservation
certificate (when you pay the application fee) or an enrolment
certificate (if you pay the total fee) for the courses
of your choice. It's really important that you find out
about the visa requirements at the Spanish Embassy or
Consulate in your country before applying to CLM as the
application fee will not be reimbursed if your visa application
is turned down.
How do I obtain the Diploma
in Hispanic Studies?
To obtain this diploma, you must have taken and passed
10 subjects in two consecutive semesters. If you just
take 8 subjects, you will receive a certificate.
What does the level test involve?
The test is made up of three parts:
First: Multiple choice grammar questions
Second: Questions on everyday situations
Third: Oral interview with the examiner
