Applicants who have been “Accepted” or “Conditionally accepted” can finalize their enrolment as follows.

Steps to enrolment

1. Meet all the requirements by the relevant deadlines
   To complete enrollment, all the necessary documents (see the dedicated section below) must be uploaded in the “Task” section of one’s application on apply.unive.it.
   It is impossible to complete enrolment if one or more of these documents is not uploaded.
2. Obtain a provisional Ca’ Foscari student account
   The personal information of future students who have been accepted or conditionally accepted via apply.unive.it is imported automatically into Ca’ Foscari’s student database, which is different from apply.unive.it portal.
   Instructions on how to obtain and activate a provisional student account are sent to applicants via email.
   The provisional account’s username and password can be used to access Ca’ Foscari’s digital learning tools and to apply for the Veneto Region’s need-based financial aid through the applicant’s Personal Area con www.unive.it.
   (Please note: Applicants who have already had a Ca’ Foscari student profile on www.unive.it in the past will be contacted with instructions about how to access their old account and will skip directly to step 3.)
3. Communicate the programme in which enrolment should take place
   After obtaining a provisional student account, applicants must confirm the degree programme in which they wish to enrol via their application on apply.unive.it using the “Decision” function.
   This action must be completed by all applicants, even those who have included only one programme in their application.
   In order to do so, applicants must:
   • Access their online application on apply.unive.it;
   • Click on “Offers” on the menu on the left side of the landing page: they will be redirected to the section “Review your offers”;
   • Beside the name of the programmes for which they have been Accepted or Conditionally Accepted, they will find a drop-down menu to make the decision;
   • Click on “Make my final decision” to confirm the programme, so the system will automatically decline all other possible offers.

4. Check the enrolment request
   When the programme in which enrolment should take place has been communicated, an enrolment request for the chosen programme is generated automatically in our system.
   Within 2-3 days applicants receive an email confirming that the enrolment request has been successfully generated and providing instructions on how to carry out the payment of the first tuition fee instalment in order to confirm and submit the final enrolment request.
5. Pay the first instalment
   In order to confirm and submit the enrolment request, future students must pay the first instalment of annual fees. Deadlines for payments are mentioned on the section "Deadlines" of this webpage.
   More information on how to pay is available here: How to pay.
   If applicants have already been granted a tuition fee waiver or have been recognized the status of refugees or hold a MAECI or CRUI scholarship, they should contact us at  welcome@unive.it before paying.
6. Wait for your enrolment, or student, number
   The Welcome Unit will verify the enrolment application and will finalize the request as soon as possible, provided that the applicant meets all requirements and holds all mandatory documents.
   Applicants will then receive an email containing their matriculation number and password. These credentials will replace the provisional ones and grant access to the Personal Area and webmail @stud.unive.it.
   Remember that this email address @stud.unive.it will be used for all official communications: it must be checked regularly.
