Please do not make a mistake…
Please do not make a mistake by studying at this so-called university. I have applied with a non-university degree + CV with a promise that there would be no issues and that I would be able to receive a double "official" degree. To my surprise, after completing the course, I was refused to issue a double degree. It took me several months/years and stress to negotiate a return of half of the money.
Secondly, on the phone, before the start of the course, the person promised me that this degree is an official Spanish degree (double degree). Later, three years after graduation, when we had plenty of email communications, I discovered this was not an official degree but an unofficial one.
To give a little context, I graduated in 2019 and was waiting to receive a diploma/degree two years after graduation, if not three. The worst part was when the University sent me one part of degree (OBS only) it came with a whole inside. I presume it might be a wrong carrying of the document; however, when I asked them to please re-issue it. They requested a payment of 218.15 euros.
If you ever encounter them, save your money, as you won't receive an official Spanish degree, and you will probably face multiple issues in one way or another.
One more thing: they never check plagiarism, as multiple people did not even bother writing something independently. And guess what? They all passed.
It is an absolute disgrace to a country's education. This type of company should be banned.
To the reply I received from the OBS:
- You keep lying even now. We have communication from 2019. Only in 2022 have you somehow satisfied the request because of legal actions I was already about to start. And I regret not continuing with them. If I had known that the degree was not official at that time, I would never have accepted anything less than a full refund.
The diploma you have sent me with a hole in the middle is nothing but a piece of paper that cannot be used in any other country, not even in Spain.
You have successfully wasted hours of my life and many other students who are unaware that the degree is unofficial.
For all those thinking of studying at OBS because of their double degree, which are both unofficial Spanish degrees that are not registered in the Spanish Ministry of Education. Save your money and find a proper school....
