From upper secondary through to university, AUREA brings knowledge, technology and experience together to prepare students who can change what is around them.
01Entry points by audience
An institution with two levels serves five audiences with very different needs. Pick yours and the portal rearranges itself around what you actually need.
See the programmes, the requirements and the cost before you decide.
Your classes, your grades, your payments and your paperwork.
Attendance, grades, payments and messaging the teachers.
The virtual campus, the calendar and administrative services.
The network, continuing education and job opportunities.
02Programme finder
Nine programmes across upper secondary and higher education. Filter by level, or type what you are after: the search understands “sistemas”, “psicología” and “diseño” without the accents.

03Why AUREA
That education is measured by what the graduate can do. Everything else — the size of the classes, the lab hours, the compulsory placement — follows from that.

Knowledge
The fundamentals that do not change, taught to the depth someone will need if they are going to build on them for forty years.
Placement
You learn by doing, and the doing is assessed. Lab work from year one, a compulsory placement, and projects with a real client.
Technology
Not as a subject of its own but as a tool running through everything: data, digital tools and the virtual campus across all nine programmes.
Purpose
An education aimed at something. Entrepreneurship, volunteering, research and community work are part of the plan, not extracurricular activities.
042027 admissions
Six steps, between September and March. The upper secondary process and the higher education one share a shape and almost nothing else, so they are kept separate.
Six degrees. Each one publishes its study plan, graduate profile, costs and where it leads before you have to ask.
Online. Digital Design also asks for six portfolio pieces; Psychology, a one-page personal statement.
Your certificate or proof of completion, a three-year transcript and ID. The registry validates them within five working days.
Reasoning and reading comprehension, weighted as each degree requires. The interview is with the programme lead.
An offer letter with a suggested first-term timetable, and the scholarship decision if you applied for one.
Choosing modules with your academic adviser, paying the enrolment fee, and activating your institutional email and the virtual campus.
The online application opens for upper secondary and higher education.
Applications received by this date are decided first and compete for the full scholarship fund.
The last day to submit the means-test file and the supporting letters.
A single sitting, on campus, at the Central Campus. A second sitting on 24 February.
