Sapienza University of Rome Scholarships

All pre-selection candidates are required to pay an application fee per submitted application, and the page indicates that scholarships can be applied for by students who meet the academic requirements for their chosen programme. The page also links full tuition information for Sapienza’s Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes and indicates public funding by the Italian Ministry of Higher Education supports “convenient rates.”

The page explains that pre-selection is mandatory for programmes taught in English and for a limited set of Italian-taught programmes listed in the Admission requirements document. It also states that pre-selection is one step within the full admissions procedure, which is completed following instructions on the International Student Office page and the programme’s “Call for applications” in the Course catalogue.

Support related to scholarships is described only at a general level: scholarships are “awarded on the basis of academic merit and/or family income.” The page also explains that final admissions depend on the successful outcome of the full set of steps, including steps not managed by Sapienza University of Rome (such as visa-related steps).
