Welcome desk

International students who decide to study in Italy often find themselves thrown into a very different system and culture. They have to deal with unfamiliar and sometimes complex bureaucratic procedures.

That is why we have created the Welcome Desk, a service for international students who come to Milan for the first time, as well as those who already live in the city and need to verify the validity of academic qualifications obtained abroad in order to enrol in one of our courses.

The Welcome Desk will help your get started in your journey. 

How to access the service

The Welcome Desk is located on Via S. Sofia, near the main campus on Via Festa del Perdono.
You will have to make an appointment, following these instructions:

  1. Register on the portal
  2. Access Informastudenti

A report on student complaints is regularly sent to the study programme boards, the Quality Assurance Board and the General Director.

Complaints must be submitted through an online procedure with separate forms for 4 macro areas of study.
