If you are an international student and wish to register or enrol on any Italian university course, you should first refer to the regulations of the Ministry of Education, University and Research regarding the number of available places for each course.

The Ministry distinguishes between different types of “international student”:

  • non-EU students, resident abroad
  • EU students
  • international students with a residency permit in Italy
  • Italian students with academic certification from abroad.

Rules vary according to the type of course you choose: undergraduate degree, Master’s or single-cycle Master’s, a non-Medicine specialisation program, post-grad diploma; Specialist Master’s (I or II level) or an individual module.

Before visiting the Student Services office (Segreteria Studenti), check that you have all the necessary personal paperwork and read the Ministry regulations

Here below you can view and download a table detailing the quotas reserved for international students and, specifically, Chinese students.

If your academic or professional qualification was issued by an institution abroad, we advise you to consult Qualifyme!, the platform for recognition of qualifications awarded abroad.

Statements of Comparability and Verification - Diplome

As of Monday 3 February 2020, the services included in the Agreement between Università degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale and CIMEA for the issue of Statements of Comparability and/or Verification will be managed on the Diplome platform (entirely in English language).

Through the Diplome platform, CIMEA issues its Statements of Comparability using blockchain technology, allowing users to share details/proof of their qualifications with any institution worldwide in a simple, safe and registered way.

As well as the Statement of Comparability, it is also possible to request a Statement of Verification: CIMEA, thanks to extensive experience in the field, will verify whether an academic qualification (university or secondary school) is genuine and actually issued by the foreign institution in question.

Students interested in enrolling on our courses may create their own account via the relevant page at the following link: https://cimea.diplo-me.eu/piemonteorientale/#/auth/login

Once you have created your MyDiplome account, you can autonomously manage all communication with CIMEA professionals and, specifically:

  • find all the information necessary to request a Statement of Comparability and/or Verification;
  • access the section “Required Documents”, where there is a detailed list of documentation required for Statement certificates for all countries worldwide
  • download the Consent Form to complete and attach to the Statement request;
  • Contact us directly via the “Info Request” service for any further requests or information.

Each user may check the status of their CIMEA request application via the “My Services” section in their personal MyDiplome account.

Statements of Comparability and Verification issued by CIMEA will be sent directly to the applicant in PDF format via the “My Services” section and then added to the digital Wallet (registered and shared directly with the student using blockchain technology).
