University Study 2011/2012

The Italian Ministry of University (www.miur.it and www.study-in-italy.it) on May 18th published the new rules for foreign citizens who want to study in Italian universities.

Students are advised to contact directly the office for foreign students of their university in case they need assistance.

We inform that this Embassy has not appointed any agency for the submission of study related papers: students are requested to submit their own documents (affidavit, declarations, study degrees and transcripts attested by the Bangladeshi Ministries of Education and Foreign Affairs, ) to the Embassy on Tuesdays 9 am to 1 pm.

The students who submitted their pre-enrollment applications through this Embassy within the deadline can find information about what to do next in the website of the Italian Ministry of University (www.miur.it).

We inform that students can find the details of admission tests and Italian language test for each university in the notice board of the Embassy. The same information can be found in the universities' websites.

Further information dedicated to foreign students can be found in the website created by some universities in cooperation with the Italian Ministry of Home Affairs: www.intese.polimi.it

We remind all the students that according to Italian laws, all the papers related to study issues are totally free of charge, with the only exception for the translation of study degrees, when issued by an official translator (whose details will be given in our office).

Important notice
Submitting forged documents and/or seals, stamps and signatures is a criminal offence that will be prosecuted by law.
