The number of places made available for new students to sign on to the degree course is estimated based on the number of students already enrolled, given that article 19 of the UNED Statutes rules out any other criteria for admission than those legally established to enrol on a university course and that the demand is variable. This estimation refers to full-time places, such that the actual number of students admitted can be greater given that most of the students at the UNED enrol part-time. Specifically, in the academic year of 2020-2021, the number of students that enrolled full-time was 6,400.
