Highlights

• Qualifications and certificates written in a foreign language need to be submitted along with an officially-legalised translation into Italian (candidates may get their own documents translated by official translators at the Italian Diplomatic Missions in the country of origin in order to obtain the declaration of “certified translation”).

On their arrival in Italy, non-EU candidates who are resident abroad need to sit an Italian language test in order to be admitted to the University they have chosen. Such test is mandatory to enrol in any degree programme – apart from those candidates already holding a certificate of Italian language proficiency with a level not lower than B2, in accordance with the Council of Europe guidelines and in the framework of the CLIQ system (“Certificazione Lingua Italiana di Qualità”) shared by the current certification authorities (i.e. the University for Foreigners in Perugia and Siena, the University of Roma Tre and the “Dante Alighieri” Society), also in agreement with the Italian Institutes of Culture abroad and other institutions. Such certificates of proficiency in Italian language may be achieved in the authorised examination centres in one’s own country of origin.
