(the same password as for iCatt is required to access the procedure)

Keyword | Brescia Campus

In order to apply for admission to the final examination, you must comply with:

  • submission deadline: at least 45 days before the session. Details in the calendar.
  • curricular requirements for the summer session:
    • having no more than 40 ECTS credits in debt (counting does not include 'Theology' courses and the final examination);
    • students enrolled in the third year with more than 40 ECTS credits in debt excluding the final examination may apply for graduation if they have no more than 50 ECTS credits in debt (the final examination is not included in the count), provided they have taken all the examinations of the first and second year of the programme ( "Theology" courses are not included in the count).
  • curricular requirements for all other sessions:
    • having no more than 30 ECTS credits in debt ("Theology" courses and the final examination are not included in the count).

The dedicated function (Online registrar > Final examination > Application for graduation) involves the following steps: 

  • filling in and forwarding the application to the professor for approval;
  • approval or refusal by the professor/lecturer;
  • payment of the graduation fee with Pago PA.

Any changes to the title of the final dissertation, approved by the professor, must be made at the time the application is completed. The title contained must therefore be definitive, as no further changes can be accepted.

The .pdf file of the dissertation must be sent to the professor via the iCatt personal page (Online registrar > Final examination > Submit final dissertation).

The dissertation must be uploaded to the iCatt personal page no later than 10 days before the start date of the proclamation sessions (see calendar).

In the event that the professor appointed to chair the commission is unable to do it, as communicated close to the date of the exam, a substitute will be appointed to open the exam call on the scheduled date, avoiding postponement of the call. 

In order to reduce the critical situations linked to the excessive proximity or overlap of the date of the end of the exam session (last call) with the date of the start of the graduation session, it will be possible for undergraduates to close their careers (understood as the recording of all exams) within 7 calendar days of the start of the graduation session, i.e. the time required to carry out the checks on the student's career. To this end, the examination calendar will be scheduled so that undergraduate students can take advantage of the profit exam calls as follows 

Students registered in the summer session (June-July): the first 2 out of 3 calls (or the first call out of 2, where applicable). 

Students registered in the autumn session (September-October): first call in 2. 

Students registered in the special session (December-April): the first 2 out of 3 calls (or the first call out of 2, where applicable). 

The last call of each session may also be used if the examination is registered within 7 calendar days before the start of the graduation session. 

Undergraduate students who fail to graduate in the call for which they have applied for admission to the final examination must notify both the professor/supervisor and the Student Services Centre of the relevant seat.
Notification to the Student Services Centre should be made by writing via the iCatt Request for information form under Lessons, Exams and Final Examination > Final Examination.

For a subsequent graduation session, a new application for admission to the final examination must be submitted with a €16 stamp duty and a receipt of payment of the Undergraduate Contribution.

Graduating students will receive the convocation exclusively via their iCatt personal page approximately 10 days before the scheduled graduation date (Online registrar > Final Examination section).

The following criteria are applied for the calculation of the final mark:

BASIC COUNTING

All the marks of the profit examinations taken are added together (including any supernumeraries from the Faculty of Psychology, excluding 'Theology' examinations).
30 cum laude is counted as 31.
The sum is divided by the number of examinations considered (average in thirtieths).                                                           
The average in thirtieths thus obtained is converted into 110ths by multiplying the value obtained by 11 and dividing it by 3. The mark in 110ths is multiplied by a coefficient of 1.03725.
For students enrolled since the a.y. 2020/21 and who will graduate from the 2022/23 summer session
All marks of the profit examinations multiplied by the number of ECTS credits of each examination are added together.
(including any supernumeraries from the Faculty of Psychology, excluding 'Theology' examinations).
30 cum laude is counted as 31.
The sum is divided by the total weight in ECTS credits of the courses considered (average in thirtieths).                                    
The average in thirtieths thus obtained is converted into 110ths by multiplying the value obtained by 11 and dividing it by 3. The mark in 110ths is multiplied by a coefficient of 1.03725.
