COURSES SUGGESTED BY THE UNIVERSITY CATALOGUE ( 2nd year free credits - 3rd year free credits)
Courses
offered by the University
Catalogue, counting towards the number of necessary free credits, will
be assigned to students on the basis of merit, taking into account the order of
preference you indicated when you
defined your Annual Personal Study Plan ( see PROCEDURES FOR THE DEFINITION OF
THE PSP /APSP).
When foreseen, course allocation will take into account the
number of places reserved to students of the following Collegi: Architecture,
Design and Planning and Design.
If
more than one student with the same position in the ranking list choose the
same course and places are not sufficient to satisfy all of them. In this case the course will be offered to those
students who have the highest number of exams passed with honours;
subsequently, remaining places will be randomly allocated by a computerized
draw.
When you define
your APSP, you need to insert the name and generic code illustrated in the
Teaching portale under the section: “Offerta formativa – Piano degli Studi –
Programmi dei corsi” / “Course catalogue – Curriculum – Course syllabi”.

into account the exams taken by the July 2016 examination session.
For the allocation of 2nd semester courses, the merit score takes into
account the exams taken by the September 2016 examination session.
