Chapter 5 - Enrollment procedures for international students

Chapter 5 - Enrollment procedures for


international students
Students holding a qualification obtained abroad, after passing the admission or evaluation
process (if required), can enroll in any program the Tor Vergata University of Rome offers,
available at: http://web.uniroma2.it/module/name/PdnHome/navpath/OFF.
The first step is to obtain information about procedures and deadlines, which may differ for
every single program, reported in the respective calls published on the website:
http://web.uniroma2.it/module/name/Content/newlang/italiano/navpath/OFF/section_parent
/5365.
Enrollment in Italian universities is regulated by ministerial procedures, which establish
different access procedures for EU and non-EU students resident in Italy holding a
foreign qualification, non-EU students resident abroad (student visa
applicants),“Marco Polo” Programme Chinese students holding a foreign
qualification, and non-EU students holding an Italian qualification.
Detailed information is published on the ministerial website at:
http://www.studiare-in-italia.it/studentistranieri.

IMPORTANT

In order to enroll in a course at the Tor Vergata University of Rome, foreign students holding
a qualification achieved abroad shall have to submit a statement of comparability issued
by CIMEA (Centro di Informazione sulla Mobilità e le Equivalenze accademiche) or a
Declaration of value issued by the Italian competent authority.

Comparability refers to identifying the level of the foreign qualification based on the
framework established by the Bologna Process and on the EQF (European Qualifications
Framework). The mentioned comparison does not ratify the formal recognition of the foreign
qualification within the Italian system or by the Tor Vergata University of Rome. However, it
is a useful indicator for the evaluation of the qualification for the purpose of gaining access to
higher education.

The Tor Vergata University of Rome and CIMEA have made an agreement for the issuing of
a statement of comparability for final school and university qualifications obtained abroad.
Students can access the service by visiting the CIMEA website through the following link:
https://cimea.diplo-me.eu/torvergata/#/auth/login.

equivalent if the attendance was compulsory and part of the curriculum, and also in cases
where the pre-school program was provided with the teaching of reading and writing in the
language of the given Country together with some basic mathematics.

5.2.8 - Tuition fees


Information concerning the payment of the tuition fees for the 2020/2021 academic year are
available in this guide (see Chapter 7 “Taxes and contributions”).

5.3 - MARCO POLO Program for Chinese students


The “Marco Polo”Program consists in a governmental agreement, between Italy and China,
with the purpose of supporting the presence of Chinese students in Italian universities.
The students who participate in this project will have the chance to arrive in Italy in advance
compared to the other international students in order to learn Italian for 10 or 11 months.
According to the project, passing the Italian language test exempts them from the Italian
language exam provided for non-EU students residing abroad who enroll in an Italian
university. After passing this test, they will have to take any admission tests for individual
study courses (where applicable) and enroll according to the procedures indicated for each
three-year or master's degree course.

5.3.1 - Before you leave


a. Check the availability of places on the on-line database of the MIUR website. Every
year, for each degree course, the number of places is established by the competent
academic bodies.
b. Submit your pre-enrollment application to the Italian competent authorities in
your Country, in order to know the documents required to obtain the visa allowing you
to enroll in the Italian universities. More info available in the website of the Ministry for
Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
ATTENTION: pre-enrollment does not in itself allow admission to study courses. To enroll
you must also take and pass the entry requirements checks and the admission tests required
for the course of study of your interest.

5.3.2 - Once in Italy

Residence permit request


Within eight days of your arrival in Italy, you will have to submit a residence permit request
to the competent “Questura” (specific police office) of the city where you intend to establish
your residence. The ministry rules concerning the request are available at
http://www.studiare-in-italia.it/studentistranieri/. You can also request a residence permit
before your arrival in Italy by filling in the appropriate form with the assistance of Uni-Italia.
The application on site is forwarded to the competent institutions only if you already have a
study visa. Uni-Italia will provide the information necessary for the completion of the
procedure in Italy.

Fiscal Code request

31
Chapter 5 - Enrollment procedures for international students

The fiscal code is a 16-digit alphanumeric code, issued by the income revenue authority
(“Agenzia delle Entrate”) for free, which uniquely identifies Italian and foreign citizens.
With the fiscal code, you may:
• Enroll in an Italian university
• Open a bank account
• Sign a contract (rent, telephone contract, etc.)
• Register with the National Health System (SSN)
Citizens who are resident abroad may apply for one at the Italian Diplomatic Representation
in the country of residence. In Italy, however, it has to be requested at the nearest "Agenzia
delle Entrate" (income revenue authority) of the city where the student lives. The following
Agenzia delle Entrate Office is the closest to the university:
Roma 5 Tuscolano – 110, Via di Torre Spaccata - Phone: + 39 06526061 - Fax: + 39
0650763658 - email address: dp.iiroma.utroma5@agenziaentrate.it – Opening times:
Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 7:50 am to 1:30 pm; Tuesday and Thursday from 7:50 am
to 3:30 pm.
You can visit the Agenzia delle Entrate website at:
http://www1.agenziaentrate.gov.it/english/

Health Insurance
A health insurance valid in Italy is extremely important in order to apply for your residence
permit within 8 days of your arrival in Italy. In cases where you have not obtained health
insurance in your country of origin and have not had it validated by an Italian Diplomatic
Representation, you can choose between two options: either a private health insurance, or a
voluntary registration with the SSN (National Health System).
Your registration with the National Health System (SSN), which lasts a year, gives you the
opportunity to choose a doctor, who will take care of your health problems for free and will
be able to prescribe drugs, examinations, and any specialist visits in exactly the same way as
an Italian citizen.
For all information regarding this matter, please check the following website:

32
Chapter 5 - Enrollment procedures for international students

/5365. Once passed the test, if you satisfy the admission requirements listed in 5.3.5, you
can enroll in accordance with the instructions contained in 5.3.6.

5.3.4 - Reassignment for non-EU students


If you have not ranked among the admitted applicants, within the terms established by the
MIUR (The Ministry of Education, Universities and Research) after publication on the website
(www.studiare-in-italia.it), you can apply for:
a. admission to another program at the same university;
b. reassignment for the same program or a different one, in a different university.
Application for point b) must be submitted to the dean of the university where you are
going to transfer and also to the dean of the university where you sit the test (link:
Modulistica per la carriera dello studente)
ATTENTION: students who have not passed the admission test or who do not obtain a place
in another university or program, despite having achieved a qualifying score, must leave
Italy no later than the expiry date of their visa or of their residence permit for study
purposes, except for those holding other residence permits which entitle them to stay legally
after that date.

5.3.5 - Admission requirements


In order to be admitted into bachelor’s degree programs and one-cycle degree
programs, it is compulsory to hold a diploma obtained abroad after a minimum of 12 years
of education and which allows you to enroll in a university in your Country. In cases where
the local educational system provides shorter education programs, you must prove you have
attended university, and passed the exams required so as to meet the 12-year-education
requirement, or you must hold a qualification of post-secondary studies obtained in non-
university higher education Institutes. It is additionally required that you pass an academic
qualifying examination, when required in your Country (i.e. GAO KAO in China). A pre-school
year can also be considered a 12-year equivalent if the attendance was compulsory and part
of the curriculum, and also in cases where the pre-school program was provided with the
teaching of reading and writing in the language of the given Country together with some
basic mathematics.
For further information on valid qualifications obtained abroad, please check the ministerial
procedures published at the following link: http://www.studiare-in-italia.it/studentistranieri/
In particular, we invite you to consult Attachment no. 1 which refers to the US qualification
(American High Schools Diploma), the UK qualification, Greek qualification or those issued by
university institutes of ecclesiastical studies based in Italy approved by the Holy See, and
Attachment no. 2 which refers to Italian qualifications obtained in “scuole di frontiera” or in
Italian sections of foreign schools, in international Baccalaureate, in schools of the Republic
of San Marino, or obtained in foreign schools based in Italy or other European schools.

To be admitted into master’s degree programs (two-year programs), you need a


qualification obtained in a foreign university or a post-secondary qualification achieved in a
non-university higher education Institute, which allows you to continue your studies in the
academic institutes in your Country.

through their reserved area of the Delphi portal, authorize the university to consult the INPS
40
Chapter 6– Registration in academic years following year one

database in order to obtain their ISEE-UNIVERSITY certificate. The deadline for this
procedure is 16th December 2020.
In cases where students have enrolled for the 2020/2021 academic year without a
precautionary application, it will, however, still be possible to submit a late request by
formally submitting the request to the Student Secretarial Office in question which will verify
the validity of the application. If the late request is made by 31st January 2021 and is
accepted, students will be refunded.

CANCELLATION OF PRECAUTIONARY APPLICATION

If students fail to graduate in the final session of the 2019/2020 academic year, they must
connect again to their Delphi (https://delphi.uniroma2.it/totem/jsp/index.jsp?language=EN)
personal page and select “Cancelling a Precautionary Application”.
The system will cancel the "Precautionary Application", and will proceed with the enrollment
of the student in the 2020/2021 academic year issuing a pay slip regarding the first
installment of university fees to be paid and validated, so that the system can print out the
pay slip for next installment.
The first and second installments must be paid, in any case, no later than 7th June
2021.
You must pay a €100.00 penalty every time a payment is made after a deadline. The penalty
will automatically be added to the following installment.

6.4 - Enrollment as a part-time student

Should students for work, family, medical, personal and other similar reasons consider it
difficult to study the standard number of hours required in an academic year, they can
choose to attend a university course part time. Students choosing this option will increase
the number of academic years but can benefit from a 30% fee reduction. For more details,
see Chapter 7–“Taxes and Contributions”.
The choice of a part time course is irrevocable, while students that have enrolled in a full-
time course can change and opt for a part-time one.
The 30% reduction for part-time students cannot be added to the exemptions listed
in chapter7.6.2: “Partial Exemptions”.

When you can choose the part-time option


It is possible to request the part-time option at the beginning of each academic year after
having enrolled or registered in the academic years that follow. Students selecting this option
in cases where they are enrolling or when registering in subsequent years must apply by
31st December 2020.
It is important to check, before proceeding with the application, whether the
course of study provides for the possibility of part-time.

41
Chapter 6– Registration in academic years following year one

For part-time enrollment in healthcare area degree courses, part-time registration is only
possible from the second academic year onwards and can only be requested for one year.

Natural duration of degrees and the arrangement of different course length


It is possible to apply for part-time conditions after initial enrollment and arrange a course
length that is twice as long as the standard degree course, unless there are other time limits
imposed directly in the didactic regulations of your course.
At the end of this period, students will be considered part-time students who are “fuori
corso”. You can still benefit from a 30% reduction but the payment will be calculated
according to the "maximum tax" for your course. For more details, see Chapter 7–“Taxes and
Contributions”.
In cases where students:
• obtain over 36 ECTS credits (CFU) they will not be considered eligible for a
discount in that year;
• obtain the number of ECTS credits (CFU) needed to qualify for the final exam in order
to complete their degree before the time limit for a part-time course, they will, in
any case, have to pay their fees for the entire period established.
The part-time option cannot be considered in any way differently from the normal
duration of a university course regarding, for example, how many academic years
should be taken into consideration when calculating retirement pensions and social
security contributions. Certification, therefore, will indicate "normal" concerning
the duration of the course from a juridical point of view together with the actual
“agreed” duration for the part-time course.

INSTRUCTIONS ON YOUR PART-TIME REGISTRATION PROCEDURE

a. Connect to the Delphi Online Services


website:https://delphi.uniroma2.it/totem/jsp/index.jsp?language=EN
b. Select Student Section, Key 3 “Enrolling part-time”.
c. Fill in the online application regarding the part-time option.

This application will be received by the Student Secretarial Office, which will check the
validity of the information contained before sending it to the Committee of the Didactic
Structure (Consiglio di Corso di Studio) in question. In fact, the Committee of the Degree
course will have to decide whether or not to accept the part-time option request, and can
also provide students with a didactic proposal in order to help them better organize their
studies.
Once the Student Secretarial Office in question has received the decision of the Committee of
the Degree Course, students will be summoned in order to sign the contract at the Student
Secretarial Office. They will also have to submit their self-certification concerning the work,
family, medical or personal reasons which motivated their decision to opt for a part-time
solution.

will be proportional to the value and will vary according to the contribution class
and the type of taxation of the course;
- for ISEE-UNIVERSITY of more than 90,000 Euros or for students that have
no ISEE-UNIVERSITY: the contribution will be the maximum foreseen for the

foreign/international students to Italy, as per the MIUR communication dated 22nd May 2020,
must be replaced, at least for the whole of 2020, by e-learning, and therefore this category
of students will be able to follow the lessons remotely for this period.

must be obtained within the 12 months before August 10th, preceding registration. Only the
registered exams within the above-mentioned date will be considered, except for credits
obtained after an internship attended by students of health care degree courses. In this case,
credits will be considered even if registered later than August 10th and before September30th.
ECTS credits (CFU) of eventual “integrated” exams need to be registered by August10th.
Credits obtained abroad at partner Universities during a student mobility program will be
evaluated only if registered in the twelve months before August10th, preceding registration.

7.2 – Payment and deadlines of tuition fees

students.uniroma2.it/pagamento/.
49
Chapter 7 – Taxes and contributions

ATTENTION

Use only the payment slip issued by the system at the moment of
enrollment/registration. Any other payment made and in any other way (i.e.
through a direct credit transfer) will not be considered valid in the enrollment
procedure and will not be refunded.

7.4 - ISEE–University

Students who wish to apply for university tax reductions must, through their reserved
area of the Delphi portal, authorize the university to consult the INPS database in order to
obtain their ISEE-University certificate. The deadline for this procedure is 16th December
2020.
Students who decide not to apply for a reduction in tuition fees, who do not have a valid
ISEE-University, who have an ISEE-University of more than 90,000 Euros or who do not
authorize the consultation of the INPS database will automatically have to pay the
maximum fee for their contribution class.
The university will not accept ISEE certifications that:
• have expired and which are therefore invalid
• are incomplete or compiled in the wrong way
• are deemed to be ineligible to obtain tax benefits for university studies.
After the acquisition of the ISEE-University certification, taxes and contributions
will be recalculated. Following this, no new forms of certification will be
permitted for the remaining part of the academic year.

7.4.1– What is an ISEE certification and what is it for?


The ISEE certificate (Indicatore Situazione Economica Equivalente - Equivalent Economic
Situation Indicator) is the instrument for assessing the economic situation of individuals who
request subsidised social benefits. It is reserved for students from EU and non-EU countries
who belong to a family unit with declared incomes in Italy. This can be obtained by
combining and considering three elements: income, assets, and family. For the purpose of
tuition fees, if parents are not members of the family unit, students can be considered to be
a single member of the family only in the following cases:
• students have not been living in the original family home (or in a house owned by a
family member) for at least two years since the date of their original enrollment
application for each time they apply for a course;
• the student has an adequate income.
If both conditions are not satisfied, students will be considered as a member of their parents’
family.
In accordance with current legislation, the only ISEE considered valid for the calculation of
tax brackets and other benefits provided by the university is the ISEE-University.

50
Chapter 7 – Taxes and contributions

7.4.2 – How to apply for an ISEE-University


In order to obtain the ISEE for services regarding the right to study (ISEE-University),
students must fill in the form entitled “Dichiarazione sostitutiva unica(DSU) integrale” .
The DSU contains information about the family and its members and about the assets and
incomes of each member of the family. It must be filled out and handed in at the following
offices:
• Centri di Assistenza Fiscale (CAF);
• INPS, also online using the INPS portal.
Once compiled and submitted their DSU, students must wait for an average of ten working
days to obtain their ISEE-University.
Given that in order to compile the DSU a lot of information concerning property, assets, and
income must be collected, the procedure may be time-consuming. Students should submit
their DSU as soon as possible to the CAF office which will provide the ISEE-University.
The university cannot offer a direct DSU service.
As soon as INPS or CAF provides the ISEE-University certification, the student must check
on the Delphi platform that the uploaded document is correct and control the amount to
be paid in the second installment.
Should any errors come to light, the student must report them through the following
email address: caf@supporto.uniroma2.it.

7.4.3 – Foreign Students


In order to access the benefits provided for the reduction of university contributions, EU
students belonging to a family unit whose income was earned abroad and who register or
enroll in years following the first one have to obtain the ISEE-University certificate (data
collection form for university indicator) at any CAF at national level by 16 DECEMBER 2020
and deliver it to the Student Secretarial Office.
To obtain an ISEE-University certificate, students must provide details regarding their
incomes and assets in Italy and their incomes and assets abroad of each member of their
family.
These documents need to be issued by the competent authorities in the country where the
incomes are produced. They must also be officially translated by the Italian Diplomatic
Authorities of that country together with the income expressed in Euros.
In those countries where obtaining such documents is difficult, the documentation may be
requested at the foreign diplomatic Authorities in Italy and certified by the Prefecture in
th
accordance with art. 33 DPR no. 445 dated 28 December 2000.
For foreign students from particularly poor countries indicated in the Ministerial Decree no.
1455 dated 9th June 2017, their income will be evaluated according to the documentation
issued by the Italian Embassy in the student’s country of origin in order to certify that the
student does not belong to an upper-class family with a high income(DPCM dated 9th April
2001).
Once obtained their certificates, students must submit to the Foreign Student Secretarial
Office a copy of their final ISEE-University certificate issued by a CAF office together with all
the documentation related to the certification. Following this, students will be able to check
the amount they will have to pay in their second installment.
51
Chapter 7 – Taxes and contributions

Should any errors come to light, students must report them to the following email address:
caf@supporto.uniroma2.it

or visit: http://studenti.uniroma2.it/.

7.4.4 – Deadline for the ISEE-University submission


The ISEE-University certification regarding the right to participate in a university course must
be applied for by 16th December 2020. On receiving the ISEE certification, students, through

INPS portal within the validity period of the certificate.
Through the Delphi portal, student must authorize the university to acquire the ISEE-U from
the INPS portal within the validity period of the certificate.
Students who already have a valid ISEE-University do not need to apply for a new ISEE-
University certificate for enrolment in the 2020/2021 academic year but must authorize the
university to acquire the ISEE-University certificate from the INPS database through its
reserved area of the Delphi portal by 16th December 2020. Therefore, students must not
consign any document to the university, nor should they send their ISEE-University by e-
mail.
th
Should the DSU not be presented by the deadline of 16 December 2020, students will be
placed in the highest income bracket and therefore will not be entitled to any reduction
in their tuition fees.
th
If the DSU is presented after 16 December 2020, a penalty will be applied as follows:

Application dates Penalty


th th
From 17 December 2020 to 16 March 2021 150.00 Euros
th
From 17 March 2021 to 29th May 2021 200.00 Euros

The penalty for the late submission of ISEE-University may be combined with other
penalties such as a late payment of tuition fees.
The penalty for the late transmission of your ISEE-University will not be applied in the
following cases:
• enrollment in a degree (bachelor, master and one-cycle master’s degree) if the
deadline for the enrollment is later than 1st December 2020;
• enrollment in courses with an admission test after 1st December 2020;

8.12 - Examinations, verifications and issue of certification

8.12.1 -Exams
An exam is a verification that you have to do and pass for each course foreseen in the
official and/or individual study plan of your degree course. The minimum grade is
18/30, while the maximum is 30/30 to which can be added a special distinction (cum
laude). The final evaluation also takes into account the results of any periodic tests
foreseen in some degree programs.
On passing the exam, students receive the number of credits foreseen for each course.
At the end of each course, students must take an exam at various time intervals, which
are publicized. The type of exam varies according to the study course following the
regulations of each didactic structure, which, depending on the specific characteristics of
their courses, can establish a limited number of exam dates linked to the running of the
course and an obligation to repeat the course if the exams have not been passed.
Written exams can consist of quizzes, multiple-choice tests, etc., while oral tests are
public.
To be admitted to Exams / Evaluation tests, you must:
• have included the relevant lessons in the approved study plan;
• have obtained their declaration of attendance where foreseen in the course
regulations;
• have satisfied the compulsory exam order;
• be in line with the payment of taxes and contributions.
Exams that have been taken without having satisfied all the above-mentioned
requirements will be declared null and void. Students will receive written notice regarding
the annulment of their exams. Once an exam has been passed, it cannot be repeated. If
you have failed an exam, you will not receive a vote, but only a result that will be
registered in the exam report (withdrawn or rejected) which will not be included in your
curriculum and therefore will not affect the average of your final vote. In order to take an
exam, students must have their university transcript of records (Libretto universitario)
with them, and, where foreseen, an approved study plan.

8.12.2 - Study plan and exam booking


A study plan is the path that encompasses all your training activities (lessons,
laboratories, etc.) that must be carried out to obtain your degree.
Each degree course involves a number of examinations, some of which are compulsory
and are foreseen in the didactic program established by institutional bodies. There are
others, however, which may be chosen by students. The sum of compulsory examinations
and exams chosen by the student constitutes a student's study plan to be followed in
order to reach the number of ECTS required to obtain a degree. During the compilation of
your study plan, you can choose a part of your examinations from a pre-set list (optional),
while others, you have total freedom of choice (free choice).
You can book many macro-area graduation exams online. It is possible to do so from 30
working days before the date of the exam to 4 working days before. The data is always
visible. The electronic exam result registration service is directly linked to the above-
75
Chapter 8 - During your career

mentioned booking of exams. This electronic system, through a sequence of automatic


procedures, considerably reduces the student exam result registration times and
consequently certification.

8.12.3 - Graduation exam


To be entitled to take your degree and master graduation exam, you must first pass all
the exams related to didactic lessons and other forms of test and have completed all the
credits foreseen in your study plan.
You must also be up to date with your administrative obligations. In particular, you must
be in line with the payment of all your fees and university contributions foreseen in your
academic year, including the second installment even if it has yet to expire.
It is, however, possible not to pay your university fees for the 2020/2021 academic year if
you intend to graduate during the final session of the 2019/2020 academic year (for
which you are already registered) by compiling a special PRECAUTIONARY APPLICATION
with which you apply for a deferral of your enrollment for the 2020/2021 academic year.
For more information, see Chapter 6.3 "Deadline extension for the enrollment of
graduates (precautionary application)".
This university has joined the Alma Laurea Interuniversity Consortium, a service
which was set up in order to create a link between companies and graduates and to act as
a point of reference within the university environment for all those (students, operators,
etc.) who are involved, at various levels, in themes relating to university studies, such as
employment, the condition of the young etc. The Alma Laurea Consortium, in particular,
aims to:
• facilitate entry into labour market and improve the placement of young people on
the workplace, help companies search for staff, improve the matching of labour
supply and demand;
• guarantee the valorization of human resources through the continuous professional
updating of graduate careers;
• monitor the study plans of students and analyze the characteristics and
performance of graduates facilitating comparisons between different courses, study
centres and macro-areas;
• analyze the internal efficacy of the training offer of universities;
• assess the needs and professional profiles required by public and private Italian and
foreign companies;
• analyze the external efficacy of study course proposals through the monitoring of
job opportunities;
• develop a synergic link with high schools in order to better guide high school
students in their choice of university course and their work entry the labour
market;
• promote every initiative which aims to facilitate the above-mentioned objectives
both at national and European level.

“Comitati per le Pari Opportunità” and “Comitati Paritetici per il contrasto al fenomeno del
mobbing”.
Aimed at ensuring formal and substantial equality, in accordance with art. 3 of the Italian
Constitution, the purpose of the CUG is to oppose any sort of direct/indirect discrimination,
including gender discrimination.
Therefore, the CUG is committed to removing all those factors which may negatively impact
on equality, well-being, and security in work environments, which may determine inequalities
in pay and career advancement.
As a body which supervises, guarantees, and promotes equality, non-discrimination, well-
being, health, and security, CUG represents a fundamental reference point for all the bodies,
committees, and commissions of the university and for its whole community.
