Affordability
We offer affordable fees.
UC3M is a public university, and we believe that highly qualified professionals can be found in different income brackets.
The MBA has a global reach, and differences in purchasing power between countries can be very significant, so we also offer affordable fees.
Our fees are transparent: the general tuition fee is €19,500, and we offer a reduced fee of €13,900 for citizens of the European Union.
Affordability does not imply any compromise in the quality of the program, as demonstrated by our double international accreditation (AMBA and AACSB).
A meritocratic university
UC3M is a public university and, as such, is committed to offering the highest educational standards and selecting students based solely on their merits, regardless of their economic level or income. To ensure access based on merit, we offer lower fees than equivalent private institutions. Affordability is compatible with the highest quality standards, as demonstrated by our two international accreditations, AMBA and AACSB.
Within the Spanish university system, UC3M is widely regarded as the best school in the field of business administration. It attracts the best students from all over the country and is considered by employers to be the most demanding and selective institution in the business field. Its international reputation is also solid, as demonstrated by the large number of international students and its recognition in international rankings.
