To study in Italy, minimum academic requirements vary by education level. For undergraduate programs, applicants need a high school diploma equivalent to the Italian Diploma di Esame di Stato, typically requiring 12 years of schooling. Proof of language proficiency (Italian or English) is often mandatory, depending on the course.
For master’s programs, a relevant bachelor’s degree or equivalent is required. Some universities may impose GPA thresholds or entrance exams. Doctoral candidates must hold a master’s degree. Non-EU students may need to verify qualifications through the Italian embassy. Always check specific university guidelines, as requirements can differ.
