Recruitment agencies

The University of Bologna independently manages student admissions to degree programmes and the awarding of Unibo Action 2 study grants and Unibo Action 1 tuition fee waivers. Further benefits are granted by Er.Go. In doing so, the University does not make use of agencies or recruiters based abroad.

If you receive a message from @studio.unibo.it email addresses, please promptly forward it to internationaldesk@unibo.it for verification. 

The University of Bologna and Er.Go do not require advanced payments in order to award grants or other benefits.
