Why study in Italy?
2026–2027 study planning · Sources checked 27 October 2026
An Italian university shortlist should start with the actual course, teaching language and entry qualification. A programme called a master can refer to different types of qualification. Check the award, credits, duration and progression route before comparing prices. Public and private institutions can have different fee structures, and an English-taught degree does not make every administrative step available in English.

How to check your application route
For applicants who require a study visa, university admission and pre-enrolment are separate steps. Follow the institution’s instructions and the relevant Universitaly procedure. An admission offer or validated pre-enrolment does not promise a consular decision. Keep the course start date, university deadline and consular appointment process in separate rows of your plan.

COSTS & FUNDING
Plan with confidence
For regional financial aid, read the call issued by the body serving your university. ER.GO describes economic and academic requirements and different awards for resident, commuter and non-resident students. A single scholarship amount does not apply to every student. Prepare the family-income and asset evidence required by that call; do not assume that a pending award can pay an immediate tuition deposit.
Build a decision you can afford
Save the course page, fee notice and refund terms for each option. Record the date checked, the currency and whether each charge is due before arrival. Use a conservative plan that still works if a scholarship is not awarded or a part-time job takes longer to find.
For the next intake, use the official call for that specific programme. A 2026 deadline is not evidence of a 2027 deadline. If the next call is not available, prepare documents and ask the admissions office when it expects to publish its notice.
