General requirements

Bachelor's degree

Applicants to bachelor’s degree programmes must have obtained a secondary school leaving qualification after having completed at least 12 years of schooling. Generally, this qualification must be eligible to access further academic studies in the country where it has been obtained. 

In addition, if an applicant’s chosen programme requires sitting an entry test, applicants must take the exam in order to be admitted. More information about specific admission tests can be found on the programme’s web page and will be given during the application procedure.

In compliance with the directives of the Italian Ministry of University and Research, applicants who completed 10-11 years of schooling should provide the university also with the relevant qualifications filling the 1-2 schooling years gap. See the section “Additional requirements for qualifications awarded after a period of schooling of less than 12 years” for more information.

Additional requirements for qualifications awarded after a period of schooling of less than 12 years

Applicants who wish to apply to a bachelor’s degree program and hold a qualification awarded after less than 12 years of schooling must fill the gap by providing us with one of the following documents:

  • Academic transcripts of records certifying that all the exams foreseen for the first/second year of university studies have been passed.
  • Final leaving qualification from an Italian university attesting the completion of a foundation course, which compensates for the missing years of schooling. Check the webpage of Ca’ Foscari Foundation Year for more information.
  • A 1/2-years official post-secondary study qualification obtained in a non-university higher education institution in a subject related to the chosen course.

The number of additional school years applicants may need to undertake depends on how many years the applicants studied in order to obtain their secondary education leaving qualification.

Master's degree

Applicants to master’s degree programmes must have obtained a bachelor’s degree that is equivalent to an Italian bachelor's degree (at least 3 years, 180 ECTS or equivalent). Generally, this diploma must be eligible to access further academic studies in the country where it has been obtained and it must be issued by an accredited institution.

Depending on the programme of interest, applicants will need to demonstrate the possession of a specific CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) and academic prerequisites in order to guarantee that they are adequately prepared to undertake their studies at master’s level.

The CIMEA Statement of Comparability can be requested online for some countries. Check the information of the webpage linked above.

The ARDI Statement of Correspondance is automatically generated by the system for each qualification, thanks to the so-called ARDI - Automatic Recognition Database - Italy. It is available for the majority of qualifications from the 55 countries that are signatories to the Lisbon Recognition Convention and are related to the academic sector or final school qualifications. We invite our applicants to check the countries of the ENIC-NARIC networks to see if this Statement is available for their qualification.
Important: applicants who download their Statement of Correspondance will be requested to provide Ca’ Foscari University also with the CIMEA Statement of Verification in order to be eligible for enrolment.

The Declaration of Value can be requested from the Italian representatives in the country where the studies have been conducted. Please contact directly the Embassy/Consulate for more information.

Diploma Supplements are accepted only if they are based on the international model developed by the European Commission, the Council of Europe and UNESCO and this should be stated inside the Diploma Supplement, usually in the preamble at the beginning. The awarding institution must be located in a country adhering to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).

Please note: if more than one qualification has been evaluated for accessing the degree programme candidates applied to, they should provide one of the documents mentioned above relating to each evaluated qualification.
Examples:

  • Secondary school leaving qualification (obtained after less than 12 years of schooling) + Foundation year diploma for access to Bachelor’s degree programmes;
  • (Short) Bachelor’s degree diploma + Master’s degree diploma for access to Master’s degree programmes.
