* | The date presented here is the scheduled date to publish the results. However, this date may be changed. Applicants with a validated application receive an automatic notification of the results on the day the provisional sorted list of applicants is published. |
** | The publication of the final sorted list of applicants depends on the publication of the provisional list, since the former can only be published 10 working days after the latter. |
*** | If the final sorted list of applicants is published beyond the date established for the enrolment and registration, the admitted applicants will receive a notification of the new deadline to enrol and register for the course. |
