Participation in the Summer language stay in Valencia is limited to three individuals from any given university and a maximum of six people from the same country, chosen based firstly on their achievement in the course or courses the applicants are attending or have attended. In the event of receiving many applications from the same country, a limitation on the number of participants may be established based on the total number of applications received.
In case of a tie, the applicants who have never participated in language stays organised or jointly organised by the IRL shall be given priority. If the situation cannot be resolved based on any other criteria, priority shall be given in the order the student’s applications were received.
If the number of applicants selected based on the assessment criteria does not reach 30, more than three applicants may be chosen from the same university. There may under no circumstances be more than 30 participants in the Summer language stay in Valencia.
From 15 May, applicants may see whether they have been selected on the Institut Ramon Llull online noticeboard.
Applicants who meet the admissions requirements but were not selected initially will be put on the wait list.
