Rankings 

The ranking is determined based on the score obtained in the evaluation. In the event of a tie, priority is given to the youngest candidate. The rankings are published at this page and are valid only for the academic year for which they were drawn up.

If you have been admitted to more than one study programme, you can secure your admission for a maximum of 2 programmes by paying the designated rate twice. 

1. Choose the study programme and pay the fees (to secure your admission) in the application portal.

The deadlines are indicated in the “Deadlines” section.

Please note that you do not gain full student status by only paying the tuition fees. This status will only be acquired upon enrolment. If you have secured your admission, there will be no refund of the tuition fees.

The fee will only be refunded if the Masters programme will not be activated due to the insufficient number of enrolled students.

2. Enrol online in the application portal.

The deadlines are indicated in the “Deadlines” section.

Enrolment is recommended as early as possible, so you have the possibility to upload incomplete documents before the deadline.

If you do not meet the enrolment deadline, you will be excluded and the next applicant in the ranking list will be admitted.

Admission with reservation: If you do not have the required academic qualification, you will be given a conditional offer for a study place and you must submit your qualification upon enrolment. If you achieve your qualification after the enrolment deadline, you cannot enrol, and you will lose your place which will be offered to the subsequent applicant in the ranking list.

3. If you have a foreign university degree, during enrolment you must upload:

• the diploma of your qualification
• the official translation of your diploma into Italian (not necessary if the diploma has been issued in German or English)
• the Diploma supplement, where it must be indicated: that you have achieved at least 120 credit points (ECTS) and that the qualification gives access to a 2nd level master programme

Depending on the foreign education system your degree belongs to, you must also upload:

a) EU countries, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein:

• Statement of Correspondence of your Master degree, to be downloaded from the ARDI - Automatic Recognition Database – Italy

b) Non-EU countries that are signatories to the Lisbon Convention:

unibz performs the necessary checks on your foreign qualification and in case of doubt reserves the right to request additional documents.

Please note that if you do not possess a valid admission qualification, you can be excluded with Rector’s decree even after enrolment.

Tuition fees amount to € 4,500. The amount is to be paid in a single instalment upon enrolment. 

Payment of fees is a prerequisite for enrolment. 

If you abandon your studies, renounce them, or are excluded from them, you are not entitled to a refund of the amount paid.
