Question:

The admissions process for Italian universities?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

I'm thinking about going to university in Italy to study a degree in Economics. My Italian now is beginner/intermediate so I will study Italian to fluency first. After that I need to know what I will have to do.

Could someone tell me about the admissions process? What's involved? How selective are Italian universities? Is it hard to get into the big name universities like Bocconi and Bologna? How respected are Italian university degrees in Europe?

I'm an EU (British) citizen and I'm going to graduate with the International Baccalaureate Diploma.

Thanks!

  1. as with all universities..your Italian must be at least 90% your grade average must be tip top and you will need plenty of money.Dont worry about getting into big name universities..try..you will have to go before a board..and plead your case.A good middle of the road one will do just fine.It depends what you are going to do when you finish..most other countries other than the one you trained in..will require proof of credentials and you may have to take some further relevant training....think wisely before you use up time and money.If you want to work in england and live there..maybe you shold train in england


  2. hey, im doing the same thing, it varies depending on what you are going for, there is "numero chiuso" which is that there are only a certain amount of studdents accepted each year, then "aperto" where anyone can get in (they are usually the shorter programs).

    the number of stiudents accepted by the "numero chiuso" schools also differs, for example the vet program (what i am doing) only accepts 600 people, and the people that they take does not depent on the grades, but on one single exam that everyone takes on one day, the less people take it the better chance you have, (this test is only once a year), and make sure you read the directions because if you get an answer wrong you get -1.5 off.  (you have to sign up for the test ahead of time) go to the schools web site.

    the schools have a rule that so many forners can be accepted, for example at mine there are 10 spots, but you still have to take the test.

    but keep in mind once your in the work is not easy.

    good luck
