Advanced Programmes

Before registering for a course, read the competition announcement carefully, which, in addition to the content, objectives and educational organization of the course of study, establishes:

• enrolment requirements;
• limited enrolment, if any, and selection procedures;
• registration fees; 
• deadlines and methods for submitting applications for registration and enrolment;
• contact information for the organizing administrative office.

1. Have the following at hand:

• a valid identity document
• the name of the university where you completed the degree requested in the call for applications
• the date on which you completed the requested degree

2. Access the admission service by using:

• your credentials @studenti.unimi.it (if you graduated from or are currently enrolled at the University of Milan), or
• your SPID identity, or
• your external user credentials (if you do not have them, please register on the University portal)

3. Complete the admission application online
4. Check and confirm the data in your application: a copy will be sent to your university email address or the email address that you indicated during the registration process
5. Save and store a copy of the admission application

In the following cases, the application must be sent in with additional documents to the Continuing Education and Lifelong Learning Office

• holders of non-university qualifications issued in Italy, which are legally recognized as equivalent to a required degree, must submit a copy of their qualifications and their high school diploma;
• holders of a degree issued abroad must submit, for the assessment of their degree and only for the purpose of course enrolment, the original or a certified copy of the following documents:
  • educational qualifications; official translation of the academic qualification, which has been certified according to the legislation in force in the country where it was obtained;
  • a "Dichiarazione di valore in loco”, which is issued by the Italian representative (embassy or consulate) in the country where the degree was awarded. Those who have obtained the qualification in a European Union country can present the Diploma Supplement, in alternative to the translation and the "Dichiarazione di valore in loco”, which is also accepted according to current legislation.

The selection results are published online.

Periodically check the ranking list: if your name is on the list you must enrol within 5 days from the publication of the results.

Those who are accepted are required to:

1. enrol within 5 working days from the publication of the ranking list, otherwise enrolment will not be not valid;

2. pay the registration fee indicated on the web page for each course, by credit card or by using the MAV form which is generated at the end of the online enrolment procedure.

Time limits and conditions for payment of the enrolment fee also apply when paid by someone other than the interested party, such as institutions, organizations or companies, with the penalty of failed course registration.

The advanced courses are a part of the institutional activity of the university, which means that the enrolment fee is excluded from the application of VAT (ex art. 10, d.p.r. 633/1972). Therefore, it is not possible to issue invoices.

At the time of enrolment, candidates coming from foreign countries are required to submit a copy of their tax code to the Continuing Education and Lifelong Learning Office, and non-UE citizens must also show their original Italian residence permit.
