9.1.1.
Rules

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 2017 for students enrolled in the 2016-2017 academic year;
  • July 2018 for students enrolled in the 2017-2018 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 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".

9.1.2.
Administrative procedures and deadlines for enrolment as repeating students ('ripetente') in the first, second and following years

Enrollment must be carried out during the:
 
  • 24 July- 31 August 2017 for enrollment in the third year of studies and as repeating students ‘fuori corso’
  • 27 July - 31 August 2017 for enrollment in the first year repeating student “ripetente” and in the second year of studies.

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

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 first installment of the University fees and tuition has been paid and recorded in the student's academic career. If the first advance paymentis not paid by 15 September 2017 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 31 August 2017, for whatever reason, can enroll during the 1 September - 31 December 2017(*) period, upon payment of a late-enrollment fee (for detailed information check the website at www.unibocconi.eu/fees.

After 31 December 2017 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 check www.unibocconi.eu/fees).

9.3.1.
Elective courses choice rules

When students enroll in the third year of their programs (24 July - 31 August 2017) they must choose their elective courses for both the first and second semesters, for inclusion in their study plan. The positioning of elective courses in the I or in the II semesters is merely a suggestion. Students can choose how to allocate these activities along the two semesters.
During this period students can also change the electives they chose when enrolling in the current academic year. In addition BIEF students can also change the major chosen in the second year of studies.

Electives may be freely chosen from the courses available, from the general list following the instructions below for each Bachelor of Science Program.

CLEAM-CLEF-CLES

3 elective courses

Electives must be chosen according to the following criteria:
  • at least 1 elective must be chosen from those taught in English, for students involved in semesters abroad, e.g. Exchange program or Free-Mover semester and who validate at least one course this requirement is not applied;
  • a maximum of 2 of the 3 electives can be chosen from compulsory courses characteristic of the other BSc programs;
  • a curricular internship may replace 1 elective taught in Italian

BIEM
  • 4 major compulsory courses chosen from among the 5 proposed;

in addition
  • 2 electives;
Electives must be chosen following the criteria below:
  • they may be chosen from the remaining courses of the Major;

  • they can be selected from the compulsory courses characterizing other BSc programs
  • a curricular internship may replace 1 elective.

CLEACC

All students must choose 1 course from among:
  • the workshops offered in the group of 10 workshops exclusively addressed to CLEACC students
  • an Internship or
  • an elective course exclusively if it has been passed abroad as part of the Exchange and Free mover semester programs.

  • a maximum of 2 elective courses can be chosen as part of a list of elective courses on offer or the compulsory courses characterizing other BSc programs;
  • 1 elective can be replaced by a curricular internship.

Before choosing elective courses students are advised to check the list of courses available, programs, lessons schedule, and the "incompatible" and "banned" courses (Italian version).

Students participating in international programs will be given the possibility of changing their study plan once they come back from the exchange (see 9.3.4 Change of study plan for students participating in international programs). However, upon enrolling in the academic year, students are advised to choose elective courses coherent with their interests, in case they have to sit for some exams at Bocconi.
Last change 24/08/2017 10:39

9.3.2.
Electives allocation snd numerical limit

After enrolling in the academic year students are allocated the elective courses chosen for both the first and the second semester. The courses chosen are therefore immediately viewable in the students’ study plan.

The allocation of elective courses is made on the basis of the sign-up positions when students made the course choice/change.

As a general rule, each course class group must not have more than 110 students.

Except for:
  • third year CLEACC workshops whose maximum limit of 35 enrolled students is set;
  • the modules relating to the course Method and research in arts of the CLEACC second year program structure. The limit of 70 participating students is set;
  • very rare cases of elective courses for which a different limit is set.

In the limit of 110 students, the following categories of students are not included:
  • students participating in international programs who come from foreign universities;
  • student who opt to change from a four degree system to the three-year one;
  • students who have already graduated from Bocconi and have been admitted to the third year of studies.

Bocconi students participating in international programs may include courses that at Bocconi have reached the maximum number of students enrolled in their academic career only with the purpose of recording exams passed abroad in their academic career.

Students who enroll in the academic year after 31 August, and especially during the period from 1 September 2017 to 31 December 2017(*), can choose their first- and second-semester electives from the list of electives still available at the time of enrolment in the academic year.

(*) Since 31 December 2017 is a holiday, the deadline is extended to the next working day (3 January 2018).

9.3.4.
Change of study plan for students participating in international programs

Bocconi students participating in International programs can modify their study plan when they come back (and in the periods scheduled for all students: 24 July to 31 August 2017 and from 8 to 19 January 2018) one extra time (see Electives allocation paragraph 9.3.2) through the Punto Blu, via the yoU@B Diary.

Once the recognition procedure has been completed and the exams taken abroad have been recorded in the student’s academic career, the student receives a message on his/her yoU@B Diary stating that it is possible to modify the study plan via the yoU@B Diary>Punto Blu tab. In addition to the study plan change for entering the courses taken abroad, the students can include courses to be taken at Bocconi as long as there are still places available.

9.4.
Additional courses

Additional courses are those whose credit points provide more than the 180 credit points needed to fulfil the degree requirements. They can be chosen from among the range of elective courses and can only be included in the study plan, for a maximum number of three, after students have passed all course exams of the first 3 semesters of their Bachelor of Science program. Such activities can be selected from among the elective courses and the language courses.
To calculate the average, only two additional exams may be considered (those for which students received the highest marks, if grades achieved are the same the ones with an highest number of credit points are considered).

Students can choose additional courses from the third year of studies by collecting and handing in the completed form to the Academic Affairs Division Desk, between 24 July 2017 - 19 January 2018.

Please notice that
  • allocation of elective courses entered as additional exams is subject to the limit of places available;
  • allocation of elective courses entered as additional exams, if available, is made after the allocation of the elective courses included in the student’s academic career as choice/change of study plan, i.e. 1 September 2017 for electives of the first semester, 20 January 2018 for second semester ones and it is depending on the places’ availability.

Additional courses may be eliminated by submitting a request to the Academic Affairs Division Desk.

It is not possible to eliminate an activity from the study plan which has been passed and registered.

9.5.1.2.
Limits

In order to regulate the changes from one degree program to another, for the 2017-2018 academic year,applications will be accepted as long as the balance between entering and exiting students, added to those students who make up the class groups, is at most equal to 135 students for each class group for programs taught in Italian and 115 students for programs in English for each class group.

If the number of applications is greater than the number of places available, students will be selected according to a ranking list for each new Bachelor of Science program based on merit, which is determined by the weighted average of exam marks and credit points received compared with those to be received in the origin BSc program.

The ranking is carried out by considering the first year study plan and exam passed by the month of November 2017.

Please note that in case students opt for the BIEM or BIEF program:
  • students must have one of the language prerequisites which are recognized as valid to be enrolled in 2016-2017 academic year in a Bachelor of Science program taught in English (Guide to the University 2016-2017 a.y., chapter 2.1.8.3 for the BIEM Program or 2.1.9.3 for the BIEF Program).
  • some of the English certifications already recognized with B2 exit level could be validated in the higher level C1 with a grade adaptation out of thirty. Students interested in such validation must contact the Language Center.
  • Students who have a foreign language certification useful to enter the BIEM or BIEF program and who have submitted the application for the Exchange programs, must request the recognition of the certification to the Language Center by 3 February 2018.

Changing Bachelor of Science Programs - rules valid up to the 2017-2018 academic year

          
Last change 01/06/2017 08:00

9.6.1.
Rules

Students cannot change their Bachelor of Science program in the first year of the program.
Changes of program:

  • are allowed only for Bachelor of Science programs which have not a common foundation at the end of the first, second and third year of studies;
  • between courses that have a common foundation, at the end of the second and third year of studies.

For the BSc programs taught in Italian and in English (CLEACC), changing class group is of an exceptional nature and its reasons should be explained in written by the student via a letter to be attached to the application. The Direction will evaluate each single letter of reasons identifying, in this way, the students who can be admitted. It is possible to submit request to change BSc program at the end of the first of studies or at the end of subsequent years, on condition that the student has not yet earned more than 60 credit points.

For the BSc program changes, the year of admission to the new program is determined by the Program Director, who will take the student's academic curriculum into account. It is specified that, for the change for the Bachelor of Science in International Politics and Government, the admission will be possible at maximum in the first or second year of studies.
Bachelor of Science program changes towards the World Bachelor in Business program are not possible (in no way).

To request a change of program, students must have previously enrolled in the original program for the upcoming academic year (in the first year of the program as a repeating student ("ripetente") or in years following the first).

When changing from one Bachelor of Science program to another, the following applies:
  • exams taken for courses in the original degree program that have the same title, code and credit point values as those in the new degree program are considered to be equal (same exams in common);
  • exams are to be integrated if they are exams for courses belonging to the same subject group in both the original and new degree program. Courses may have significantly different course profiles but are worth the same credit point value, or the original program's courses may be worth less credit points than those of the new program. In this case the exam mark is based on a weighted average of the marks obtained in both degree programs;
  • any exams included in the original degree program that are not included in the program structure of the new degree program are considered to be in excess. In this case, compulsory courses passed as part of the original degree program, not included in the study plan of the new degree program may be recognized as additional courses and also as elective courses upon approval from the Program Director of the new degree program.

In addition, students are considered to have attended the lessons for courses taken in the years before the change included in the program structure of the new degree program. Therefore students can register for the exams for the courses included in the program structure of the new degree program in the years before the change, starting from the first available exam session.


Please note that, if students opt to pass to programs taught in English:

  • students must have one of the language prerequisites which are recognized as valid to be enrolled in a Bachelor of Science program taught in English for 2017-2018 academic year (see chapter 2 Program structures).
  • some certifications of level B2 may be recognized at a C1 higher level with a grade adaptation out of thirty as a consequence of that. Students who are interested in such validation must contact the Language Center to check the procedures.

  • 90 students for BIG and BEMACS with admission in the second year.

If the number of applications is greater than the number of places available, students will be selected according to a ranking list for each new Bachelor of Science program based on merit, which is determined by the weighted average of exam marks and credit points received compared with those to be received in the BSc program of origin. The ranking is carried out considering the exams passed by July 2017.

Program changes - valid from the 2018/19 academic year

Starting from the 2018/2019 academic year, for changing programs new rules will be applied; these do not include the distinction betwing BSc program change and Review of the BSc program choice.

The rules will consider the following elements:
  • Language of instruction of the program
  • Common foundation of the two programs or not


The BSc programs are therefore possible:


  • In case the language of instruction is the same: at the end of the first, 2nd or 3rd year. If the change is made within the common foundation, it is possible to request it also at the end of the third semester.
  • in case of different language of instruction: at the end of the first year, no matter that the change is within program commun foundation or not.


As for exceptional cases, it is possible to allow the change of BSc programs taught in a different language also at the end of years following the first one, on condition that the student has not yet earned more than 60 credit points (relating to compulsory and elective educational activities) of the program structure of the new BSc program.

For the Courses taught in Italian and in English (CLEACC) changing class group is of an exceptional nature and its reasons should be explained in written by the student via a letter to be attached to the application. The Direction will evaluate each single letter of reasons identifying, in this way, the students who can be admitted.
Students can submit application at the end of the 1st year of studies or at the end of subsequent years, on condition that they have not yet earned more than 60 credit points.


In case of change towards programs taught in English it is specified that the admission is depending on having acquired the English language knowledge prerequisite or one of the language prerequisites valid for enrollment in a program taught in English (see chapter 2 Program Structures) or the internal English Bocconi exam at level B2 (minimum grade: 26/30) or level C1, if only passed by 23 June 2018.


It is specified that it is possible to request, during the same academic year, only one BSc program change, therefore students who have obtained the BSc program change at the end of the first year CANNOT request again the BSc program change at the and of the third semester.

The year of admission is decided by the BSc Program Director, considering the student’s academic career. It is specified that for the BSc program changes towards the Bachelor of International Politics and Government (BIG), the admission will be possible only in the first or second year of studies.
BSc Program changes towards the World Bachelor in Business will not be possible in no way.

Numerical limits

In order to regulate the changes from one degree program to another, for the 2018-2019 academic year applications will be accepted as follows:

  • First year: a maximum of 5 students per class group will be admitted;
  • Second and third year: applications will be accepted as long as the balance between entering and exiting students, added to those students who make up the class groups, is at most equal to:
    • 135 students for each class group for the BSc programs taught in Italian;
    • 115 students for each class group for the BSc programs taught in English.


If the number of applications is greater than the number of places, students will be selected according to a ranking list for each new Bachelor of Science program based on merit, which is determined by the weighted average of exam marks and credit points received compared with those to be received.

For the BSc program changes made in summer (August-September 2018) the ranking will be made upon considering the exams passed by the June exam period (23 June 2018).

For the BSc program change of programs taught in the same language and sharing the commun foundation made at the end of the third semester (December 2018) the ranking is made, as already applied, upon considering the exams passed by November 2018.

Temporary interruption of studies means that students will not be able to complete any administrative operations, participate in educational activities or make use of any university services. The years for which the student did not enrol do not count towards disqualification. For each year of temporary interruption students are required to pay a fixed sum set by the TCA (University Fees Office).

Disqualification

After eight academic years after the end of the standard duration of the program, starting from the first initial enrolment in the university system, the student academic career is subject to a specific evaluation.

If positive it will be defined the new maximum deadline, usually corresponding to the standard duration of the program, for completing all the educational activities.

When calculating the maximum number of years the period in which there was a temporary interruption of studies in accordance with DPCM 09/04/2001 (military service, civil service, year of childbirth, serious illness and certified prolonged medical conditions) is not included.

Students who have been disqualified from their Bachelor of Science programs can obtain certifications attesting to their university career and the number of credit points earned. If students should eventually resume their studies, the credit points previously earned will be evaluated to determine if they are still valid.

Disqualification does not apply to students who have passed all exams and are only missing the final degree exam.
