On March 14, 2022, the Italian Ministry of University and Research has pubblished the so-called “Procedures for entry, residency, enrollment of international students and the respective recognition of qualifications, for Higher Education courses, in Italy” valid for the academic year 2022/2023.

The full version of the document (Italian and English) can be consulted on the dedicated website of the Italian Ministry of the University and Research: Studiare in Italia – Studenti Stranieri: www.studiare-in-italia.it/studentistranieri/

The document establishes the conditions, for international students, to apply for the admission, pre-enrollment and enrollment at Italian Universities in the specific academic year and sets the start of the so-called pre-enrollment at the relevant Italian Diplomatic Mission abroad in order to apply for the visa for study reasons in Italy.

The pre-enrolment procedure is entirely online and available on the ministerial portal UNIVERSITALY: www.universitaly.it/

Candidates who have been successfully evaluated for the pre-admission to a study programme offered by the University of Macerata in the academic year 2022/2023 (those who have received the so-called “pre-admission letter”) can start applying for the pre-enrolment through Universitaly::
1. register on Universitaly;
2. fill in the application form for the academic year 2022/202:
- select the University of Macerataand the study programme you have been pre-admitted to;
- upload the same documentation provided for the pre-admission application (excluding pre-admission letter, cv, references or recommendation letters);
- specify the local Italian diplomatic authority where to apply for the visa.
3. the University of Macerata verifies the completeness and the pertinence of the submitted pre-enrolment applications: in case of validation, the pre-enrollment application is sent automatically to the relevant Italian diplomatic authority, where the candidate must refer for the subsequent application for the visa for study reasons in Italy.
Those who have not submitted the final diploma during the pre-admission step must integrate the own pre-enrollment application as soon as possible and no later than the established deadlines to conclude the procedures to obtain the visa.

PLEASE MIND: the pre-enrollment application is aimed at the subsequent request for a visa for study reasons at the Italian Universities: this procedure is exclusively in the competence of the local Italian diplomatic authorities, which establish the related modalities and terms.
