Students enrolled in the first year of a Bachelor program are admitted to the second year only if they have earned at least 24 credit points by the exam period of:
- July 2011 for students enrolled in the 2010-2011 academic year;
- July 2012 for students enrolled in the 2011-2012 academic year.
Please note that such credit points refer to the courses included in the first year study plan 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 lessons and does not give them access to exams before the end of the lessons 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 lessons;
- 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 enrolment certifications for the academic year in which they are enrolled.
There are no restrictions for enrolment 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".
