9.2.4. Allocation of electives

By 9 September:

  • allocation of I and II semester electives and majors will take place for all students except those who have chosen the "free track" major;
  • students will receive a message relative to the allocation of their electives in their yoU@B student diary.

Students who choose the "free track" major will not be able to see their chosen elective courses. The elective courses allocation is made upon approval of the MSc Program Director to the Student Administration Centre.
Allocation is based on a scale that takes into account the alternatives expressed by students and the sign-up/change position. Students who change only one elective course lose the priority position they held for their initial choice, even for elective courses which have not been changed.
Courses will not be run if the minimum number of students is not reached. For courses taught in Italian the minimum number is 18. For courses taught in English the minimum number is 12.
Class groups must not have more than 120 students.
Students coming from foreign universities participating in international programs are not included in the above-mentioned limits.

Bocconi students participating in international programs may have recorded in their academic career exams taken at universities abroad that correspond to Bocconi courses that have either not attracted the minimum number of students, and therefore are not run, or have already attracted the maximum number of students.
During the 9-30 September 2008 period:

  • students who were not allocated either their preferred elective course or courses chosen as alternatives, and
  • students who obtained permission to change their MSc Program;

must choose, at Punto Blu or Virtual Punto Blu, from among the I and II semester electives that are still available. During this period, once electives have reached the maximum number of 120 students they will no longer be available for other students to choose from.
Students who enrol in the academic year after 2 September and especially during the 9 September 2008 - 31 December 2008 period (*) , can choose their I and II semester electives from the list of electives that are still available at the time of enrolment in the academic year.

(*) Since 31 December 2008 is a bank holiday, the deadline is extended to the next working day (7 January 2009).
