For the Brescia campus, the Faculties have identified some recommended exams.

• Consult the list of certifications accepted by King’s College London and the required scores by clicking Entry Requirements: Undergraduate Summer School
  
  Please note: only certifications obtained from May 2024 onwards will be accepted.
   
• If you do not hold one of the listed certifications, you may take the Cattolica International English language test.
  • During the online application, you can select the test date. It is recommended to take the test at the first available session to avoid places running out.
  • The test will be held online and can be booked directly during the application process. You will receive the Zoom link by email by the day before the test date.
  • The test may be taken only once.
  • If you have already taken the Cattolica International internal test for other study-abroad programmes (from May 2024 onwards) and achieved a sufficient result, you may choose not to take the test again and keep the previous result valid. You will need to indicate the date on which the test was taken within the online application.

• Students enrolled in a Cattolica degree programme taught entirely in English may access the programme by submitting a self-certification of enrolment in their degree course.

  • The document can be downloaded from the iCatt page: Online Student Services > Substitute declarations of certification → Enrolment with study plan. Note: the document must be completed and signed.
