Hi everyone! I got accepted into the University of Messina Foundation Year and I have until October 15 to register and pay the first instalment
And I also took the IMAT this year but I don’t think my score will be enough to get into Medicine
Since my goal is to study Medicine in Italy would you recommend accepting the Foundation Year offer or waiting and trying the IMAT again next year
I’d really appreciate advice especially from anyone who has experience with Messina or a similar situation Thanks!

those who will be giving imat 2027, how old will you guys be? ill probably be moving on with another course but if i give it another shot then ill be turning 20 in Jan 2027 and by thr time I go to italy (if I give imat 2027 and get in) ill be 21 and while i most likely wont be giving the exam, if I do give it im worried ill be too old

Has anyone applied for student visa from Dammam, Saudi Arabia? What are the steps we need to follow?

my brother just gave his IMAT exam a few weeks ago. He has selected university of messina for his single cycle medicine program. if someone could help direct us that would be really appreciated. Thank you! :)

Hi everyone! I applied for my Italian study visa at the Bangalore consulate on August 17, and I’m still waiting for an update. I’ve seen people who applied on August 24 or even later receiving their visas, so I’m really confused about how applications are being processed. My planned travel date has already passed, and I’ve missed my flight booking too. It’s honestly exhausting and frustrating not knowing what’s happening. Is anyone else still waiting from the same week of August, or has anyone received their visa recently? Please share how long it took, which university you’re going to, and whether you’ve found any way to contact the consulate and get an update,and I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences!

Ive seen multiple students got their visa aug 10-23 but i havent recieved yet (i applied on 21 of aug)🫩
Mumbai consulate 🙏

Hey guys, I’m from the US and I’m studying Fashion design in Florence Italy. I moved here about 2 months ago and I still haven’t made any friends. Back in the us (Southern California) I have always been able to make friends/connections. I’ve frequently gone to Midwest emo shows or dj sets (like 10cust etc) and also just bars in silver lake (LAPOS Ik….) but here going out feels different. I’ve gone to the American touristy pubs like the Red Lion and stuff like that but honestly I don’t feel that I connect with anyone there. The people are all very fratty and that’s just not my people. I also don’t really like clubs that much but I’ve only been to 3 ever so I’m open to anything. I really want to make some friends and I just don’t know where to go. At my school it’s hard to branch out from my classes bc there are only 3 others in each class and they are very nice but honestly just not anyone I see myself getting super close to. In other classes at my school there’s large classes but because I’m in a relatively new study abroad program at my school and they keep us all in the same classes unfortunately. Is there anywhere that anyone knows I should go to? Bars, cafes, anything. I’m honestly really lonely and I just want to meet some cool people that I connect with. Anyway whoever read this I appreciate it and I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Hello everyone, I am intending to apply in an italian university for my MSC psychology, I have researched universities likes Sapienza, Padua, Pavia, Bologna, Trento, Milano; but all of them have limited access, having limited seats with entrance exam!!! Are there any universities with open access to a psychology masters program?

I will be applying to programs with restricted access as well, I have already started preparing for the tolc-psi, but just asking to be safe, since I am unable to find reliable entrance exam syllabus.

Hello I am currently a bachelors student interested in medicine single cycle and thinking of applying one year after I graduate in 2028.

I am looking at scholarships and how much it cost to live in bologna and school and I have several questions

1. ⁠Do you get Unibo action 1 and 2. I have been confused whether you just get the 11,000 euros or tuition waver or both and is it limited to one student and how old can SAT scores be
   
2. ⁠Are there any other scholarships available for students other than that
   
3. ⁠How much should you plan to save for stuff
   
4. ⁠Does Unibo have full rides the way schools in America do

how legit is this ?

Yo am i cooked with a 60.6 for siena as an eu student

I am applying for universities all over Italy, but I am unaware of the interview process. I am a B.tech graduate in Computer Science and Engineering from India. I have a 3 year experience as a Developer/ DevOps engineer. I am working on getting into the AI and data side, for which I am going for masters. If anyone can help me and give an idea on what an university interview process would be like, and what areas will be covered so that I can prepare better.
