If you wish to take the Pre-session Intensive Italian language course you must attend the FIRST orientation event
If you are taking classes from the Banking and Finance Faculty, we strongly suggest that you do NOT select the Pre-session Intensive Italian language course, as there may be timetable overlaps and scheduling conflicts.
After registration, all the students must take an online placement and an online oral interview in order to place them in the most suitable course. It is mandatory they take the placement test even if they have never studied Italian.
