Foundation Course Annual Pathway Program EBAU/UNED 1

Academia GUIU

Academia GUIU

The academy was founded in 1892 by Manuel Guiu Casanova (1869-1950), a graduate in Science (at that time, that included Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology) and the author of numerous Mathematics books that we exhibit in our library.. In 1939 he transferred all his functions to his son, Francisco Guiu Pérez (1910-1985), graduated as a Mechanical and Electrical Engineer. When he died, his son, Manuel Guiu Hidalgo (born in 1944) who was graduated as an Industrial Engineer, continued the management of the academy and took it to its maximum expansion and magnitude. Currently, the great-grandson of Manuel Guiu Casanova, Jordi Guiu (1976), a graduate in International Trade from UPF, is carrying out the next generational change.. In 1983 we started the exclusive Pathway preparation Courses for the University Entry Exam (EBAU) to gain access to university, which led us to become the pioneers in this field at a national level. In 1991, along with a wide experience at a national level, we started to offer courses for international High School students with equivalent studies.


Foundation Course Annual Pathway Program EBAU/UNED 1


The objective of EBAU (University entry exams), for students who have studied outside Spain is to assess their maturity, knowkedge, and skills acquired in High School.
The contents of these tests are determined by the curriculum of the Spanish second High School year.
In our classes, these contents will be worked on thoroughly, orienting the learning to a perfect performance during the exams.
Our teachers, university graduates, are specialists in each of the subjects and have the experience and empathy necessary to provide a high-quality training.
That is why we guarantee the passing of these tests to all students who prepare with us.

The entry exam to the university (EBAU) is structured in two phases:
1. The General Phase, mandatory for all High School students.
Specific phase, of a voluntary nature, for students who need to improve their scores.
General Phase
It has five subjects:

Our specialists will inform you and guide you on the subjects that suit you best. Taking into account the subsequent studies you want to carry out. For this, we use the weighting grid.
