GUIDES TO THE UNIVERSITY

Students enrolled in the first year of a Bachelor of Science program are admitted to the second year only if they have earned at least 24 credit points by the exam period of:

• July 2019 for students enrolled in the 2018-2019 academic year;
• July 2020 for students enrolled in the 2019-2020 academic year.

Please note that such credit points refer to the courses included in the first year study plan only and they also include the credit points earned when passing each single module if applicable to the course. Credits relating to the second year language exam, if students have obtained the recognition of an international certification (See: "Foreign languages and computer skills") are not included. At the end of the July exam period, credit points needed to move on to the second year are verified.

Students who have not fulfilled this requirement are unable to take part in the September exam period and must continue their studies by enrolling as repeating students ("ripetente") in the first year of studies.

Enrolling as "ripetente" gives students the right to attend lectures and does not give them access to exams before the end of the lectures for the semester in which the course is held.

Students regularly enrolled in the academic year as regular ("in corso") or repeating students “ripetente”:

• are allocated a class group for the lectures;
• are allowed to sit partial and general exams;
• are granted access to the various services offered by the University (Library, IT rooms, etc.);
• can obtain enrollment certifications for the academic year in which they are enrolled.

There are no restrictions for enrollment after the second year of studies.

After the third year, students who have not yet completed the study plan usually enroll as repeating students "fuori corso". However students can also enroll as repeating students "ripetente".

Enrollment must be carried out during:
 

• 23 July- 29 August 2019 for enrollment in the third year of studies and as repeating students ‘fuori corso';
• 29 July - 29 August 2019 for enrollment in the first year repeating student “ripetente” and in the second year of studies.

by accessing Punto Blu 'Administrative Area' menu, via yoU@B student Diary.

The enrollment procedures are as follows:

• select the "Enrollment in Academic Year" option;
• enter the enrollment data requested.

After selecting "Enrollment in the academic year", the system automatically allows

• first year students to enroll in the "regular" second year of studies if they have earned 24 credit points by the July exam period and the choice of the second foreign language;
• first year students to enroll as first year repeating students ("ripetente") if they HAVE NOT earned 24 credit points by the July exam period;
• students already enrolled in the second year of studies, enrollment in the third year, the choice of electives (when taught in both Italian and English, specify the language chosen) and, if requested, the teaching method (traditional or e-learning).

Enrollment in the academic year via Punto Blu is completed once the advance payment of the first instalment of tuition and fees has been paid and recorded in the student's academic career. If the first advance payment is not paid by 3 September 2019 students will not be able to carry out any administrative or learning activities or make use of any other services.

Students who do not enroll by 29 August 2019, for whatever reason, can enroll during the 30 August - 31 December 2019(*) period, upon payment of a late-enrollment fee (for detailed information check the website at www.unibocconi.eu/payments).

After 31 December 2019 enrollment is only possible as students enrolled beyond the standard duration of the program, ("fuori corso" or "fuori corso intermedio") and with the payment of the penalty fees duly made (for detailed information, please see www.unibocconi.eu/payments).

(*) Since 31 December 2019 is a holiday, the deadline is extended to the next working day (3 January 2020).

From 8 to 21 January 2020, by using the Punto Blu, that can be accessed via yoU@B, BIEF students enrolled in the second year of studies must choose from among the following majors:

• Economics
• Finance

When enrolling in the second year of studies (29 July- 29 August 2019) students must carry out the choice of two modules, one for the first semester and one for the second semester, relating to the course Metodo, critica e ricerca nelle discipline artistiche [Method, critique and research in artistic disciplines] (see chapter 2 Program structures of the BSc programs).

From 8 to 21 January 2020, via yoU@B Student Diary>Punto Blu>Study Plan, the module previously chosen in the second semester can be changed with another module held in the second semester of the current academic year. Such changes must be made in compliance with numerical limits described in Elective course allocation.
