Automatic summary, not yet reviewed

  1. The law recognizes the Universidad «San Pablo-CEU», de Madrid, as a private university. It will be established in the Community of Madrid and governed by the University Reform Law, by this law, and by its own rules, based on academic freedom.
  2. The University will initially consist of the schools and degree programs listed in the annex, which lead to official degrees valid throughout Spain. Creating new schools or programs requires meeting the requirements of the University Reform Law.
  3. The Government will authorize the University to start operating by Royal Decree, within a maximum of six months, after verifying the commitments of the founding entity and obtaining the report of the Council of Universities. The recognition expires if authorization is not requested within four years, or if it is finally denied.
  4. To study at the University, students must first pass the aptitude tests at a public university. The University freely regulates admission and continued enrollment, giving preference to academic results and allowing no discrimination. It must also stay open long enough for students to finish their studies, is subject to inspection by the Ministry of Education and Science, and must prepare an annual report of its activities for the Cortes Generales.
