To enrol in a Master Universitario di I livello you must satisfy the requirements are based on the latest  guidelines for admission published by the Italian Ministry for Education which apply to all students with foreign qualifications, regardless of nationality. This applies to qualifications awarded both in European Union (EU) countries and non-EU countries.

Our university will determine the suitability of your academic degree for admission to a "Master universitario di I livello". Each university sets its own criteria and regulations (including the required documentation) for admission and enrolment in a study programme.

Admission is based on the evaluation of the academic documents submitted with the application, while enrolment is subject to verification of the validity of the qualification obtained.

For a preliminary self-assessment of your qualification, we recommend referring to the ARDI database, which contains information on the requirements for admission to Italian universities. ARDI includes information on most national qualifications, but if your qualification is not listed in the database, we encourage you to contact us if you have any doubts about its validity. 

Read our recognized language certificates and exemption policy. 

Ideal candidates will have a Bachelor Degree or Specialist/Master's Degree preferably in social and human sciences, design, engineering, architecture or economics.

Students from other academic backgrounds are also welcome to apply.

Work experience is considered a plus, but not essential.
