Degree admission, application and withdrawal

Before compiling your request

• agree upon the subject of your final thesis/paper with your supervisor;
• check that you have settled all outstanding university tuition fees (including any late payment penalties); the Student Administration Unit (Bachelor's and Master's degrees) will carry out an additional check to ensure that tuition fees have been paid.

During compilation

• compile the online request to graduate, listing any outstanding exams or exams taken awaiting registration. Any problems you might have encountered can be described in a text file, which you can then attach to the upload form in the request to graduate area;
• if you are a Master's degree student who is about to graduate you will have to insert the name of your co-supervisor only if she/he helps you in preparing your thesis. Please note that your supervisor will find your co-supervisor. If you have worked on your thesis under the guidance of your supervisor only, you have to insert any co-supervisor. In that case you will insert only the name of the supervisor;
• you will also be asked to enter the title of your thesis along with an abstract: The abstract is a brief summary of the contents of your thesis and should not exceed 1500 characters in length. Both the title and abstract can be changed after compiling your request – within the established deadlines – by clicking on the change thesis title button;
• after completing the online procedure, check the summary to ensure data entered is correct and make sure that your request displays a "submitted" status (in your Personal Area under the Graduation heading). We recommend printing the summary page as proof of correct compilation.

• we remind you that if you apply for graduation from  January 10th to January 15th you will have to pay a 100 Euros surcharge; you will find it in your personal area from January 21st ;
• you can check whether your request to graduate has been approved by  your supervisor within the deadlines by going to your Personal Area and the heading "Upload thesis and check supervisor approval";
• by the deadline to upload your thesis/final paper go to the “Upload thesis and check supervisor approval" heading in your Personal Area.

N.B.

Should you withdraw your request to graduate, remember that you will need to submit a new request to graduate for every session.

If you have paid your tuition fees for the new academic year and you graduate in the autumn (October-December) or extraordinary session (February), your fees will automatically be reimbursed (following deduction of bank fees, revenue stamp and regional tax for financial aid) in the summer session.

Procedure

In order to give notice of withdrawal from the degree examination, you must fill in the appropriate form and attach a valid identity document.

Withdrawal during the extraordinary session (February/March session)

If you submit your withdrawal from the request to graduate in the extraordinary session, you must enrol in the academic year 2023/2024 by paying the first instalment  and second instalment of your tuition fees. In this case you will be required to pay a penalty of Euro 100,00.

If you are enrolled in the 2023/2024 academic year (the first and second instalments must have been paid), fall within the first year beyond the allotted time to attain a degree, and are only due the final examination by 31st March 2024, you will be automatically exempted from paying the third instalment and the arrears on the first and second instalments, for one academic year only.

If you qualify to benefit from the reduction in fees due to income, you will be required to take the following steps by March 31st 2024:

• enrol for the 2023/2024 academic year by paying the first and second instalments using only the payment methods found on the "How to pay" page;
• obtain the ISEE certificate for subsidised benefits for the right to university study in your favour devoid of omissions/ discrepancies;
• fill in and send the online request for subsidised benefits in all its parts in your personal account. Please note: to send the request, press the "submit request" button, otherwise it will not be accepted. If you have successfully submitted the request, you will receive a receipt of submission that you are required to save.
