Deadlines for <strong>Italian</strong><br />
<strong>Degree</strong> <strong>Students</strong><br />
After enrolment, the student must submit the<br />
Study Plan and insert the optional elements (first<br />
year courses of your choice and / or any courses with<br />
language option).<br />
Enrolment 1st Phase:<br />

2nd Phase (scrolling ranking):<br />
08/09/<strong>2023</strong> - 11/09/<strong>2023</strong><br />
The Study Plan is done only once per<br />
year. Therefore, it must include the courses you wish<br />
to attend both in the 1 st and in the 2 n d semester of each<br />
academic year.<br />
The student can decide how many credits to include<br />
in the Plan from 30 to 80 credits. Depending on the<br />
number of credits included, the amount of the<br />
tuition fees may vary.<br />
Before inserting optional courses in the Study Plan, it<br />
is advisable to check the course details and schedule<br />

ALLOCATIONS<br />
In the <strong>Master</strong> Programs, the section is assigned at the admission. <strong>Students</strong> may<br />
have the possibility of a personalized study programme, given the opportunity to<br />
opt for the Final Design studio in the second year, for the elective courses and<br />
for some curricular classes (where applicable).<br />
The allocation procedure in the optionable courses of the 2nd year is based on<br />
a merit ranking considering the student’s academic average and the<br />
number of CFU earned (weighted average) on July 31 st of each year.<br />
The preferences expressed will be accepted considering the student’s<br />
ranking until the maximum number of places available for each course is<br />
reached, the first options will be evaluated first. <strong>Students</strong> are invited to pay<br />
attention to all the options expressed once registering the study plan, checking<br />
in particular the semester and the timetable of the lessons.<br />
COURSES IN EXCESS<br />
The courses in excess that can be registered are related to the didactic offer of<br />
other programmes, with the exception of the Design studios (laboratorios).<br />
These courses do not enter into the calculation of the credits to achieve the MSc<br />
<strong>Degree</strong> and not contribute to the academic records. However, they are<br />
considered in the calculation of the credits on which the tuition fees are<br />
calculated. Acceptance in the excess courses depends on the availability of<br />
places after the study plan registration.<br />
