What International Students should know?
Administrative procedures, financial aid opportunities, residence permit
You can be admitted to a second cycle degree programme if you hold a suitable foreign university or post-secondary qualification which allows study continuation in the subsequent cycle at a university in one’s country of reference.
The suitability of the qualification for entry to second cycle degree programmes at the University of Bologna is checked by the competent Degree Programme Boards, which applies the same criteria (curricular requirements and assessment of personal competencies and skills) established for candidates holding Italian academic qualifications, as stated in the call for applications.
Before leaving home country
To enter Italy, non-EU students wishing to enrol in Tourism Economics and Management must first pre-enrol and apply for an entry visa for study purposes.
Pre-enrolment for students with non-EU citizenship
If you are a non EU citizen living outside Italy, in addition to compliance with the rules and deadlines established by the University of Bologna, you must pre-enrol online via the Universitaly portal.
