For each academic year, it is possible to make only one pre-registration request on the Universitaly portal. Furthermore, it is not possible to make other pre-registration requests in other Italian universities, because the Long-Stay visa application (type D) for Study depends on acceptance in one university.

The Universitaly portal per le pre-iscrizioni is only opened according to the Ministerial Circular  “PROCEDURES FOR ENTRANCE, STAY, AND ENROLMENT OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS, AND RELATED RECOGNITION OF QUALIFICATIONS, FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN ITALY” by MUR. Once the portal is open, it is possible to make the pre-registration application for Università del Piemonte Orientale, at approximately mid-September of the year in question.

All students who are not normally residents of Italy and who have non-European citizenship must register first on Universitaly. Once the pre-evaluation has been made and the VISA issued, it is then possible to register on Esse3.

You must upload the following documents to Universitaly:

• A valid passport
• Recent passport photograph
• Entrance qualification (High School diploma for Bachelor’s degrees, and Bachelor’s Degree certificate for Master’s degrees)
• Translation and legalisation of entrance qualification
• Certification of language skills for the language of delivery of chosen degree programme (at least B2 level)
• Declaration of Value (certifying your student transcript/certification; this can also be presented to Student Secretariat at a later date)
• Letter of acceptance onto course (only for Master’s/second cycle courses).

In addition to these documents, remember that to enroll in a first cycle degree course in Italy it is necessary to have at least 12 years of schooling

For students intending to access a Bachelor’s degree course, the procedure is managed directly by Universitaly, therefore no additional preliminary steps are required.

For Master’s degree courses, it is possible to request a pre-evaluation following the procedures described on the University website.

For example:

• Pre-evaluation for admission to Master’s degree in Food, Health and Environment (ENG curriculum): send the documentation to fhemasterdegree@uniupo.it;
• Pre-evaluation for admission to Master’s degree in Medical Biotechnology (ENG curriculum): director.medicalbiotech@uniupo.it;
• Pre-evaluation for admission to Master’s degree in Management and Finance (ENG curriculum):    https://disei.uniupo.it/it/didattica/corsi-di-laurea/management-finanza-mef-2324/international-students-mef.

There is no single answer, it depends on the number of applications received and the particular circumstances of your situation. We will give priority to students applying for courses with restricted admission numbers.

If you realise that you have made some mistakes when filling out the personal data sheet on Universitaly, you must request any modifications via "Support" on the website, attaching a copy of your passport to your request email.

If you cannot independently acquire a B2 level certificate of knowledge of the language in which the course of study you are interested is taught, you can do the online tests that the University of Eastern Piedmont periodically prepares. For further information, consult the University website.

No. The Università del Piemonte Orientale does not charge additional fees for qualification evaluation.

For any doubts about procedure, you can send an email to international.students@uniupo.it. No answers will be provided to questions already published on this web page.
