These rules apply to students without the Italian nationality and without an Italian educational qualification or university diploma. These rules do not apply to foreign students who have obtained an educational qualification (Licenza Media, Diploma di Scuola Media Superiore, Laurea Triennale) in an Italian school or university. 

Therefore students must verify the Italian language teaching present in their study plan. We specify that it is not possible to insert in the study plan more Italian Language courses of different levels; in case a student, who needs to take the first level course, wants to attend a superior level course, can do it asking to substitute it at the Registrar’s Office (Segreteria Didattica) before booking for the exam. 

Students will have to book the exam through their personal page of the teaching portal; the exam will be electronically registered. This exam will not have a mark expressed in a score on thirties but it will be just expressed as PASSED (SUPERATO). 

In the section “Materials” of the student’s personal page the video-recorded lessons of the Italian Language I level are available.

For this reason a certificate of Italian language (B1 level) is compulsory at the moment of the admission request in the on-line form. This certificate will be registered in the student’s personal data and no Italian language course will be inserted in the study plan.

For students already in possess of this certificate, this will be registered in their personal data and no Italian language course will be inserted in the study plan; all the other students will have to pass the Italian language III level exam that will be inserted in the study plan as an extra-credit exam. 

In case the exam is failed by the summer exam session of the enrolment year, the student will have to transfer on a degree course entirely hold in English.

For students already in possess of this certificate, this will be registered in their personal data and no Italian language course will be inserted in the study plan; all the other students will have to pass the Italian language exam that will be inserted in the study plan as an extra-credit exam.

Moreover, certificates issued by Embassies, Italian Institutes of Culture, Universities or authorities at the end of Italian language courses that provide for a final exam (attendance certificates will not be accepted) and that report the requested level of knowledge (A1, A2 or superior set by Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).

Students will present the certificate to the competent Registrar's Office that will register the exam, selecting, depending on the level, the course to be inserted in the study load.

Students already in possess of a certificate not included in the list of certificates accepted can refer to the Registrar’s Office that will have the CLA evaluate them. 

Students obtaining the certificate after the enrolment have to present the original certificate at the competent Registrar’s office to have it registered.
