The Global College is a co-educational day and boarding school for 15 to 18-year-olds, offering an innovative IB Diploma Programme, anchored in the history and values of IE University. We prepare students from all over the world for access to leading universities. We do this through our highly personalised curriculum, superb mentoring and career guidance, and focus on the skills needed in a world of rapid technological change.

The Global College offers the IB Diploma Programme (IBDP) fully taught in English and is an International Baccalaureate World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high quality, challenging, international education that The Global College believes is important for our students.

The IBDP is the gold standard of pre-university education; an academically challenging and balanced program that prepares students aged 15 to 18 for success at university and their life beyond. Students acquire broad and in-depth knowledge and understanding, studying six courses from six subject groups.

The Global College has established a partnership with IE University, a top university in Spain recognized worldwide for its excellence in innovation. We offer a uniquely entrepreneurship-focused education through our strategic alliance. Students develop an Entrepreneurship Project in teams, which instils essential skills like complex problem-solving, creativity and communication.

We strive to inspire our students to love physical activity. We offer a broad range of sports for all, including basketball, soccer, swimming, tennis, paddle tennis, running, volleyball, spinning, and fitness using a series of modern facilities near our campus, including those of IE University. Also, thanks to our partnership with IE University, highly competitive and elite sports students will be able to join the university teams and clubs.

Weekends are always an exciting time and many varied trips and activities are offered for a program for both day students and boarders. Hiking, plays and concerts, cultural outings, skiing… There is never a dull moment at The Global College.
