University of Bologna
Plan the course, campus and scholarship deadlines together.
The University of Bologna is spread across five campuses, rather than a single city. Each programme advertises its own admission method, teaching language and places. Choose the course first, then check its campus and your living budget.

What should I consider specifically about the University of Bologna?
Bologna does not use one admissions requirement for every course. Some courses use exams or rankings; others assess documents. The admissions notice sets the required test and deadline. Your campus also affects housing and everyday costs.
Compare the course content, entry requirements, teaching language and campus before looking at the university's overall ranking.
Undergraduate applications to the University of Bologna
For undergraduate and single-cycle programmes, the university checks your school qualification, years of schooling and the course's selection process. Non-EU applicants who need a visa must complete Universitaly pre-enrolment as well as the university application. Start early to allow time for document checks and translation.
Postgraduate applications to the University of Bologna
Master's programmes may require a relevant bachelor's degree, specific previous modules and language qualifications. Teaching in English does not mean that every academic background is accepted. Match your module descriptions and credits against the admissions requirements.
How should I assess tuition and scholarship options?
For 2026/27, fees include a fixed component and a variable component based on household finances. Students with income or assets abroad must submit the university's required overseas financial documents by the deadline. Missing documents may prevent a fee reduction.
ER.GO scholarships, accommodation and other student support use separate application calls. University admission, ER.GO support and a fee reduction are separate decisions. As deadlines may overlap, prepare scholarship documents before waiting for the admission result.
Do not count a scholarship as confirmed income before the decision arrives. Budget separately for tuition, accommodation, insurance, visas and initial settling-in costs.
