Who is eligible to apply?

Students are eligible to apply for Exchange (Erasmus+ / Overseas), ISEP Exchange, and Study Abroad programs if they meet the academic and language requirements established by the program and the host institutions, are regularly enrolled at Università Cattolica at the time of application, and maintain their enrolled status throughout their entire mobility period abroad until their return.

The following students are excluded:

  • First-year students enrolled in undergraduate degree programmes (Laurea Triennale) in the Faculty of Economics and related interfaculty programmes
  • Students enrolled in the Master's degree programme in “European Studies in Investor Relations and Financial Communication”, as an international mobility period is already integrated into the curriculum
  • Students actively enrolled in other academic programmes at Università Cattolica, such as single courses, university masters, PhD programmes, or postgraduate specialization schools.

Once you have received confirmation of your destination, it is your responsibility to submit applications for exam approval, as follows:  

  1. Follow the instructions for your Faculty and consult your exam record.
  2. Read carefully the specific academic instructions for each destination, which can be found in the flyers/notes or on the destination university website (NB access to the complete educational offer is not always available).
  3. Attend meetings with the representatives of individual Faculties.

Approval of an examination by the relevant academic staff at Cattolica does not automatically guarantee access to the course at the destination university, since:

  1. the course abroad may run out of available places or may be cancelled/moved to another semester: for this reason it is best to propose as many exams as possible for approval
  2. prerequisites for acceptance on a course abroad have to be verified
  3. you must check that the Cattolica exams that you are applying approval for can be included in your study plan, in line with the rules of your degree programme. 

NB You must pass the exam abroad. Course attendance is not valid for purposes of recognition.
