Exchange (Erasmus+ & Overseas)

When submitting your application, you may list up to 10 destinations in order of preference, including both European Erasmus+ destinations and non-European Overseas destinations selected from the list of available destinations for your Faculty.

For interfaculty degree programmes, unless otherwise indicated in the list below, please refer to the destinations available for the coordinating/lead Faculty (Facoltà madre) of your degree programme.

Please pay particular attention to:

• The specific notes provided for each destination
• The official websites of the host universities to verify course offerings and curriculum details
• The available factsheets, which reflect the previous academic year but provide essential logistical and academic information to help you finalize your choices
• The Erasmus subject area specified for each European destination, which defines the exact academic scope of the bilateral exchange agreement between the two partner institutions

Minimum GPA Requirement for Non-EU Destinations

For non-European destinations, a minimum weighted grade point average (GPA) of at least 24/30 is required, calculated as of the call's application deadline.

If a weighted GPA is not yet available:

• First-year undergraduate (Laurea Triennale) students: A minimum high school diploma mark (voto di maturità) of at least 80/100 is required.
• First-year Master's (Laurea Magistrale) students: A minimum undergraduate final graduation grade of at least 90/110 is required.

Foreign academic credentials obtained outside Italy will automatically be assigned an administrative default score equivalent to 80/100 for high school qualifications and 90/110 for undergraduate degrees. No exceptions, alternate conversions, or supplementary grade adjustments are permitted.

Bilingual Destinations

If your first-choice destination is bilingual, you may compete based on your score in Language 1, your score in Language 2, or your scores in both languages. If you do not provide proof of proficiency for Language 1, your demonstrated proficiency level in Language 2 for that destination will be considered.

Destinations without Internal Language Tests

For destinations requiring languages for which no internal Cattolica International proficiency test is offered - specifically Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, and Russian - applicants will be evaluated for the ranking list based on their score in the English language test, which is mandatory in these cases. This applies regardless of whether the partner university offers courses taught in English.
