Enrollment

Applications are open year round. Candidates may apply at any time, subject to course availability and enrollment levels. Although nominations remain open, students are encouraged to apply at least 30 days before the start of the desired session.

As program stays are typically shorter than 90 days, international participants may not require a student visa. Eligibility depends on the applicant's nationality and the agreements in place between their country and Italy. Applicants are responsible for verifying their visa requirements with the relevant Italian Embassy or Consulate.

Students apply through their home university, which may conduct an internal selection process based on academic merit. To begin, candidates must request the Application Form through their home institution or via the Unicollege Study Abroad Office.

The Study Abroad Office provides the official Application Form, which includes:

Once completed and approved by the home university (where required), the Application Form is submitted to Unicollege, which reviews nominations, verifies eligibility, and confirms participation.

Applications are typically processed and confirmed within seven working days. Upon confirmation, participants receive an official acceptance letter together with logistical instructions.

After confirmation, participants are required to submit the first non-refundable installment. All details and timing are communicated together with the acceptance letter.

Participants are expected to arrive 3 to 5 days prior to the start of the session. Housing check-in usually takes place on the day of arrival, followed by orientation activities.

Summer Session courses are intensive and typically meet both morning and afternoon until the required contact hours are completed. Due to enrollment levels and academic scheduling requirements, some courses may not be activated if they do not reach the minimum cohort size.
