The Campus & Infrastructure

The faculty resides in the historic Medicine and Science buildings on the San Francisco Campus, combining traditional architecture with 21st-century technology.

• Specialized Facilities:

• Anatomical Dissection Rooms: Renowned for their high quality and role in foundational medical training.

• Clinical Simulation Units: Advanced labs where students practice diagnostic and emergency procedures using high-fidelity simulators.

• Biomedical Research Center (CIBA): A collaborative hub where students can participate in cutting-edge research in oncology, neurosciences, and metabolic diseases.

• Medical Library: A comprehensive resource center specifically tailored to the health sciences.

Healthcare Pillar: Teaching Hospitals

Zaragoza offers a robust public health network. Clinical training begins early, giving students exposure to diverse medical scenarios in the Aragon Health Service (SALUD).

• Primary Teaching Hospitals:

• Hospital Universitario Miguel Servet: One of the largest and most specialized hospitals in Spain, known for its high-complexity care units.

• Hospital Clínico Universitario Lozano Blesa: Located directly adjacent to the university campus, making it the primary practical training base.

• Specialized Rotations: Students also rotate through primary care centers and specialized regional clinics to gain a balanced view of the Spanish public health system.

Fee Structure and Costs (Estimated 2025)

As a public university, fees are regulated by the government of Aragon and are among the most affordable for residents and EU citizens.

Note: Zaragoza is highly appealing due to its balanced cost of living—it is significantly more affordable than Madrid or Barcelona while offering a high-tier metropolitan lifestyle.

Student Life: Accommodation & Dining

• University Residences (Hostels):

• Pedro Cerbuna & Santa Isabel Residences: Official university halls located right on the San Francisco campus.

• Private Residences: Modern options like Odalys Campus or Nodis Zaragoza are located within walking distance, offering full-board plans and gym access.

• Shared Flats: Most students rent in the Universidad or Delicias neighborhoods, with private rooms typically costing between €350 and €450 per month.

• Dining (Mess):

• The faculty features a university canteen offering a full three-course "Menú del Día" for approximately €5.00 – €7.50.

Admissions & International Entry

1. Cut-off Score: Entrance is strictly merit-based. For 2025, the entry grade for Medicine is expected to be above 13.0 out of 14.0.

2. UNEDasiss: International students must validate their high school transcripts through the UNEDasiss portal.

3. PCE Exams: To be competitive, it is almost mandatory for foreign students to take Specific Competency Tests (PCE) in Biology and Chemistry to boost their scores.

4. Language Proficiency: A minimum of B2/C1 Spanish (DELE or SIELE) is essential, as patient interaction and all theoretical exams are conducted in Spanish.
