The academic year at UNIPA is continuous. It means that students have no break between courses. However, for convenience, tuition fees are calculated per year. Tuition fees at UNIPA are different for locals and foreigners. Italy citizens pay 2,711 USD per year, while international students pay a minimum of 233 USD. The cost of education and the availability of scholarships can be checked on the official website.
In addition to the cost of education, it is necessary to pay attention to additional costs: accommodation, transportation, study materials, meals and personal expenses.
In Italy, school education lasts longer than 11 years, so it is not possible to enroll in a bachelor's program immediately after school. First, you need to eliminate the academic difference with the help of one of the preparatory programs (A-Levels, Foundation, etc.). The second option is to study for a year at a university in your native country. Before submitting documents to the university, applicants take an English language exam. The university accepts the results of TOEFL. The TOEFL exam must be 87 and above.
