The Rector welcomes you to the Università Cattolica: the MESSAGE TO NEW STUDENTS
The teaching activities of Università Cattolica (lectures, exams, final examinations) scheduled for the academic year 2023/24 will take place on campus.
The School of Political and social sciences provided that the lectures will not be recorded except for the blended graduate programme in Social work and coordination of services for immigration, poverty and non-self-sufficiency at the Brescia campus.
Students are admitted to the above-mentioned courses after passing an online Entrance Examination in English, which also includes the Verification of Initial Preparation (VPI), a compulsory test for all students enrolled in the first year of a degree programme or an integrated five-year/six-year degree programme, aimed at ascertaining the basic knowledge required to attend their chosen degree programme with success.
For this degree course, the Faculty has determined the following Additional Educational Obligation:
"Reading comprehension (and logic)": a 15hour mixed classroom/online course in English, with a final examination.
The student is required to attend the OFA according to the scheduled timetable (please consult your Faculty's Freshman Kit. A student who has attended at least 70% of the scheduled hours is admitted to the final examination of the OFA course. Successful completion of the final examination means that the OFA has been fulfilled and the student may continue on the university programme without any further Additional Educational Obligations. Up to three attempts at passing the final examination are allowed in the first year, without the need to retake the OFA course.
In the event of failure to pass the final OFA examination, the group Tutor in charge will contact the student in order to support him/her in the process of following through with the above-mentioned examination.
At the end of the early summer session and/or the summer session of the profit examinations, the supervising professor of the degree programme, having assessed the results of the VPI and the final examinations of the aforementioned course, and taking into account any 1st-year profit examinations passed by the student, may deem the OFA to have been discharged.
Otherwise, the student is required to renew enrolment in the first year as a repeater.
