Bachelor degree at UCSC
11 years of school is not enough to get into UCSC. Since students study longer in Italy, you must first eliminate the academic difference — study for a year at a university in your home country, or take one of the preparatory programs (A-Levels, IB, Foundation, etc.). Before applying, you need to pass the IELTS or TOEFL exam.
UCSC campus
The city campus of UCSC provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Milan has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university has a functioning library. In addition to educational materials in various scientific areas, it contains a collection of classical and contemporary literature. Student life at UCSC is filled with intercultural activities, as not only local students study here, but also students from abroad. The exchange of knowledge and experience, networking and new acquaintances — all this is an integral part of studenthood.
