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

 

BASIC COUNTING	All marks of the profit examinations are added together multiplied by the number of ECTS credits of each examination (30 cum laude is counted as 31). Marks for 'Theology' examinations and supernumerary examinations are excluded from the count. 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.
FINAL EXAMINATION MARK	0 to 5 points if dissertation; 0 to 3 points if report
THEOLOGIES BONUS	1 point if the average mark is >= 27; 0.3 points if the average marks is < 27 and > 23   For students enrolled in the first year from the academic year. 2019/ 20: 1.5 points if the average mark is 30 cum laude; 1 point if the average mark is from 30 to 29  0.5 points if the average mark is from 28 to 26;  0 points if the average mark is from 25 to 18.
LAUDE BONUS	1 ECTS credits for every 2 laude, up to a maximum of 2 points
DUAL DEGREE BONUS	2 points
INTERNATIONAL STUDY EXPERIENCES BONUS	1, if recognised by the Faculty
SPEED BONUS	2 points for graduation by December (third year), 1 point for graduation in corso (last graduation call of the third year)
SECOND YEAR	Being in possession at the end of the second year (after the last available call) of a weighted average and number of ECTS credits according to the rules in the table below       Number of ECTS credits     <70 ≥70 Weighted average mark on ECTS credits < 23 1 point 2 point ≥23 2 point 3 point
