Università degli Studi di Verona

Bachelor's degrees and single-cycle (combined bachelor's and master's) degrees in eight areas: Economics; Education, Philosophy and Social Work; Law; Literature, Arts and Communication Studies; Foreign Languages and Literatures; Medicine and Surgery; Sport Sciences; Sciences and Engineering.

• International programmes taught entirely in English
• Double degrees leading to an Italian and a foreign qualification
• Part-time study options
• Teacher training courses (30, 36 and 60 CFU) and courses for special educational needs teachers

The University of Verona offers master's degrees in the same eight areas as its bachelor's programmes, including International Master's degrees taught in English for students with a foreign degree (for example Biology for Translational Research and Precision Medicine, with limited places). It also runs doctoral programmes through its PhD School and postgraduate professional master's programmes.

• At least 12 years of schooling are required to apply to an Italian university
• EU citizens and non-EU citizens living in the EU apply through the university's standard enrolment procedure
• Non-EU citizens living outside the EU complete pre-enrolment on the Universitaly portal before leaving for Italy; this also starts the study visa application, and only one programme at one university can be chosen
• 2026-27 academic year: pre-enrolment for programmes without an entry test had to be submitted on Universitaly by 30 June 2026; the call for International Master's degrees (pre-admission, scholarships and reduced fees) closed on 31 March 2026

Foreign qualifications are not recognised automatically. Questions go to the Admissions Office ([email protected]).

Non-EU applicants living abroad must pass an Italian language test; at the University of Verona this is the CISIA ITA-L2 test. Exempt are applicants with a B2 (CEFR) Italian qualification from recognised institutions such as the Università per Stranieri di Perugia or di Siena, Università Roma Tre or the Società Dante Alighieri, and applicants to English-taught master's degrees.

The University of Verona awards scholarships based on merit and/or low family income, intended to cover part of students' living expenses each year. International students can also apply for scholarships funded by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and for the Invest your Talent in Italy programme; for the 2026-27 academic year the university funds support and benefits for non-EU students with a foreign degree applying to International Master's degrees. Students with a study visa or residence permit may qualify for a reduced flat-rate tuition fee depending on their country's income group, and part-time student jobs are available. The regional agency ESU Verona also provides scholarships.

Italian universities generally have no campus system. International students in Verona live in student residences, run by the regional agency ESU Verona or by RUI, or share a private flat with other students; the university's international pages list residences and private flats for international students.
