In 2022, how do you apply to an international university in Italy?

 Italy is a wonderful country to visit or study in, and international students have the opportunity to do both.

You can't go wrong by studying in Italy, which is home to one of the world's oldest universities, the University of Bologna, which also helped to establish the modern university system.

Check out some important information regarding the admission process before you start applying to top Italian universities.

1. Italian universities to consider for your studies


2. Make all of the necessary arrangements.


You must first determine whether your qualifications are regarded suitable for higher education studies before applying to an Italian university:

Examine the costs of tuition and living. Cities in Italy are gorgeous, but depending on your budget, they can be quite pricey.

Inquire about a pre-assessment at the university of your choice.

If you meet the admission standards, you must submit a pre-application request to the Italian embassy or consulate in your area.

Your application and documents will be submitted to the Italian higher education institution to which you have applied through the Italian embassy or consulate.

A list of Italian embassies and consulates around the world is published by the Italian embassy or consulate.

3. Advice on applying to universities

In most cases, admitted students are ranked based on their previous grade point average (GPA). Check with your top school to learn what the minimum GPA is for the degree you want to pursue.

For some specialized disciplines of study, you may be required to take admission exams, such as:

  • Engineering
  •  Medicine 
  • Architecture

Students from countries where university entrance is possible after 10 or 11 years of study must show that they have completed all required examinations for two years or one year in order to complete the twelve-year program.

4. Requirements for applying to a university in Italy in terms of language

University programs in both Italian and English are available in Italian universities. Most English study programs (Master's degrees and PhD programs) are only offered at the postgraduate level.
You may be able to apply for degrees taught in Italian at some Italian universities, but you will be required to complete assignments and tests in English. Universities in Italy accept the following language tests:

Language exams in Italian:

  • The CILS - exam is available in Italy and in Italian Institutes of Culture around the world.
  • CELI - take the exam at one of the University of Perugia's certified centers.

Language exams in English

  • TOEFL iBT is a computerized version of the TOEFL exam.
  • PTE Academic 
  •  IELTS Academic I
  • Students who can demonstrate that English was the medium of instruction for at least three years throughout their Bachelor's degree are free from providing any English language certification.

5. Documents required for university applications

  • Document of identity
  • Photograph for passports
  • transcripts of grades
  • Application to a university
  • Detailed descriptions of study programs and courses (must contain the number of hours of the courses or training activities that you have completed according to your academic curriculum)
  • recommendation letter for CV
  • motivational letter
  • competence in a language (English or Italian)
  • Resume (only for applicants to architecture, urban planning, or any design programme)
  • Result: SAT or AC are the two options.

6. Deadlines for university applications in Italy

Contact the Italian embassy/consulate between mid-April and mid-May to obtain a Letter of Academic Eligibility and Suitability (Dichiarazione di Valoro in Loco).

Application deadlines differ by institution, so always check with the one you're interested in and submit your application as soon as possible.


7. Steps to take when you've received your acceptance letter

After the application procedure, there are a few further steps to take in order to study in Italy:

  • If you need a student visa (mostly students from non-EU/EEA countries), apply for one.
  • Apply For Scholarship
  • Within eight working days of your arrival in Italy, register with the local police (Questura) to apply for a residency permit.
  • Prepare a health-care plan with a minimum coverage of 30,000 EUR. EU citizens who have obtained a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) have the same access to medical services as Italian citizens. EU nationals (without an EHIC) and non-EU citizens can either pay for a health insurance policy before leaving their home country or obtain one as soon as possible after arriving in Italy.

You can always consult the official website of the Italian Ministry of Education, Universities and Research for further information on applying to an Italian institution.

Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge (China)

  The Danyang–Kunshan Grand Bridge is the world's longest bridge. It is a 102.Four mile (164.Eight km) long viaduct on the Beijing–Shanghai High-Speed Railway. The bridge is located at the rail line among Shanghai and Nanjing in East China’s Jiangsu province. It is within the Yangtze River Delta in which the geography is characterized with the aid of lowland rice paddies, canals, rivers, and lakes. The bridge runs kind of parallel to the Yangtze River, about 8 to 80 km (five to 50 mi) south of the river. It passes via the northern edges of populace centers (from west to east) beginning in Danyang, Changzhou, Wuxi, Suzhou, and ending in Kunshan. There is a 9-kilometre lengthy (5.6 mi) section over open water throughout Yangcheng Lake in Suzhou. It was completed in 2010 and opened in 2011. Employing 10,000 humans, construction took 4 years and value about $8.Five billion. The Danyang–Kunshan Grand Bridge currently holds the Guinness World Record for the longest bridge within the worl...

The Gardens by the Bay

Since officially opening its doors in 2012, we look back at the engineering, architectural and horticultural feat that is Singapore’s Gardens by the Bay. There is a reason why olive trees are not found in the tropics. The native Mediterranean species thrives in bright sunshine, but requires chillier temperatures to bear flowers and fruit. Hence, when an olive tree in equatorial Singapore, estimated to be over 1000 years old, successfully blossomed and subsequently fruited in 2015, it was a testament to the engineering and horticultural achievement that is Gardens by the Bay, the 101-hectare park located in the urban downtown of the city-state. First conceived by Dr Kiat W. Tan, botanist and former chief executive of Gardens by the Bay, the idea of constructing a world-class garden in the tropics, on reclaimed land, south of Singapore’s financial centre, seemed completely outrageous at the time. It is hard to imagine that this horticultural destination was once sea, then sand and soggy ...

CREATING AN ARCHITECTURAL RENDERING: TIPS TO CREATE REALISTIC IMAGES

  The best architectural renderings are planned out well in advance and encompass many little details that all combine to create one amazing image. It takes time to put in those small details; in the end, though, they truly make the rendering what it is. They have a huge impact on how real the image looks. This article will focus on what to do with the area around the building. Incorporating nature is one of the best ways to make the rendering more realistic. Grass To start, put grass in around the building. It should not all be the same height. In addition, the ground should have some variation; if you make it completely flat, it will not look realistic. Nature has a lot of small imperfections. If your image looks too perfect, it will immediately be pegged as a computer generated picture. When a lawn mower moves over grass, the blades are pushed at different angles. When working on your rendering, put in some streaks to represent this phenomenon. This is an added touch that makes ...
