Before you can be admitted to a course of study at a German institution of higher education you will as be required to take the Assessment Test. This requirement will apply as a rule. Admission to the assessment test is only possible for applicants who can prove that they hold a secondary school leaving certificate awarded for 12 years of schooling.

Why study in Italy?

Italy plays an important part in European higher education, and was influential in starting the higher education reform, known as "Bologna Process" (Bologna Declaration, June 1999) which is now being implemented all over Europe. Its higher education system includes 83 universities (58 of them sponsored by the State), as well as numerous non-university institutions such as academies of art, design and music, and institutes of technical education and specialized training.

Studying in Italy gives students access to some of the most influential art, architecture, and history in the world. The options for study abound. Italy is home to the UniversitĂ  di Bologna, which is said to be the oldest university in the western world. Historians cite the university as having been created in 1088. The university boasts many famous historical figures as alumni, including Dante Alighieri. The Italian cities like Rome, Milan, Naples, Palermo, Turin etc has a great historical value which students can observe during their study period in Italy.

Admissions in Italy

The education system of Italy is divided into three groups according to grade. They are 1st cycle, 2nd cycle, and 3rd cycle degree programmes. 1st cycle is undergraduate level, 2nd cycle is post graduate level and 3rd cycle is doctorate level.

Each and Every foreign citizen wishing to attend Higher Education Programmes in Italy must have to pass an Italian Language exam devised to check their level of competence in the language. The exam is usually organised and administered by individual institutions in the first days of September every year. To study any level students must be competent in Italy.

Financial Aids

Scholarships and Financial aid are available for International Students in Italy. Every international student is entitled to the same student assistance services as Italian students, on basis of the same requisites of financial means and/or merit. This applies to scholarships, student loans, housing assistance, refectory meal tickets and fee waivers.

Student Visa Process

Every Foreign student intending the study in Italy must obtain a Italian student visa before entering into the Italy.

n order to assure a timely processing of visas, the student (or his/her parents on their child’s behalf) should begin the visa application as early as possible but no sooner than three months prior to the program's initiation. We strongly recommend that students mustn't wait until the holiday period to go to the Consulate. Not only can the wait be lengthy, but it also makes the turnaround time for visa issuance longer than usual.

Italian institutions will provide the necessary Letter of Acceptance, Letter of Enrolment, Insurance Letter and Course Schedule to complete your visa application materials. Student visas will be issued only for the length of time you are enrolled in the program.

Only a visa issued for study purposes is valid for your final enrolment at an H.Ed. institution in Italy. No other type of visa will be accepted. Therefore, you have to apply to the competent Italian diplomatic authority and ask for a study visa in your name. The competent Italian Embassy/ Consulate is the authority responsible for accepting your pre-application and checking if you meet the requirements for the visa.

The study visa will be issued only against demonstration that you:

  • Have a suitable accommodation in Italy.
  • May dispose of enough financial means to support yourself. are entitled to medical care in Italy.
  • Possess the amount of money necessary to travel back to your country, or have already purchased a valid return-ticket.
