Digital identity
What does it mean?
Validating your digital identity means associating your name.surname@studio.unibo.it account with the information you provided during the matriculation process.

Your digital identity will be automatically validated, without you having to do anything, if one of the following cases applies:

- you have an electronic identity card and access Studenti Online via the pathway Log in with CIE
- you have already been part of the student community at the University of Bologna from 2004 onwards;
- you took a written or oral exam, also remotely, at the University of Bologna (not including TOLC tests and national competitive exams).
