Access to the degree does not require special personal or academic characteristics, except for those relating to the language skills required for students who wish to take subjects in English. In particular, as there are no specific subjects of legal training in secondary education and high school, it is not possible to recommend a specific academic profile to students.

In particular, as there are no specific subjects of legal training in secondary education and high school, it is not possible to recommend a specific academic profile to students.
Tutorial action and reception
The USC has a programme of student tutors for undergraduate degrees, so that final year students, after training provided by the University, carry out guidance tasks for students who are starting their studies.
When a degree suspension occurs, the USC guarantees the adequate development of teachings that were initiated by their students until its suspension. For that, the Government Council approves the criteria related with the admission of new degree entry registration and the gradual suspension of teaching impartation, among others.
If the suspended degree is substituted for a similar one —modifying the nature of the degree—, the new degree regulations will set the conditions to facilitate students the continuity of the new degree’s studies. These regulations will also set subject equivalences in both programmes.
Access and admission rules
Access to Bachelor’s Degree programmes is granted to students with the following degrees/ diplomas or studies, or any other recognized as equivalent to these:
A.1. Spanish Bachiller, European Baccalaureate or International Baccalaureate.
A.2. Baccalaureate from European Union Member States’ education systems or other countries withinternational agreements.
A.3. Advanced Technician in Vocational Training, Advanced Technician in Plastic Arts and Design orAdvanced Technician in Sports Education, from the Spanish Education System.

Material resources
The Faculty of Law has 11 general purpose classrooms, 9 rooms for work in small groups, 4 computer rooms and two language rooms.
There are also areas designated for students, like a reading rooms with more than 200 seats.
We can also highlight that wireless Internet connection is available everywhere in the Faculty.
The Library “Concepción Arenal”, which serves the Faculties of Polítical and Social Sciences, Law and Labour Relations, is placed next to the Faculty, and has over 900 reading stations.
Objectives
The general objective of the proposed Degree in Law is to provide a basic general training in Law, which will provide graduates with the skills required to work in the legal and paralegal professions.
Specific objectives are:
a) The formation of a lawyer, which involves both the acquisition of knowledge of substantive law as well as the capacity to interpret, integrate and apply legal rules.
b) The capacity for critical analysis of the Law and policy- making.
c) The acquisition of additional skills, necessary for the understanding of the legal system and the performance of legal and paralegal professions.
