Admission Tests

In Italy there are two types of courses – open ones with no admission test (it means that the students’ acceptance to the universities is based only on the results of their previous studies, CV, motivation and recommendation letters) and closed ones with a programmed number of students.

In the second case it is necessary to pass the exam to be accepted to the universities.

.

The types of exams are:

  • Internal entrance test of the specific university and/or faculty
  • IMAT (International Medical Admissions Test) for undergraduates applying to Medicine and Surgery
  • TOLC (Test OnLine CISIA) for courses in Pharmacy (TOLC-F); Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics and Informatics (TOLC-S); Economics (TOLC-E), Biology (TOLC-B); Medicine and Surgery or Dentistry and Dental Prosthodontics (TOLC-MED) and others
  • ARCHED TEST for the Architecture and Building Engineering degree courses both for the First and Second cycle programs.
  • Language Proficiency Tests. Many programs, especially those taught in Italian, may require language proficiency tests such as the Italian language test (CILS or CELI) for non-native speakers. Some programs taught in English may require English language proficiency tests like IELTS or TOEFL.
  • Law School Admission Test (LSAT). Some law schools may require the LSAT for admission to their programs, particularly if they offer international or English-taught law degrees.
  • Art and Design Portfolio Submission. For programs in arts and design, universities may require the submission of a portfolio showcasing the applicant’s artistic or design work.
  • Engineering Admission Tests. Certain engineering programs may have subject-specific admission tests to assess the applicant’s proficiency in mathematics and physics.
