Preparing for entrance tests

1) To access the Bachelor's and single-cycle Master's degree programmes , it is necessary to take an admission or assessment test:

• with limited access (local and national), for which there is a limited number of places, therefore only those who pass the test by placing themselves in a useful position in the ranking can enrol. Failure to achieve a minimum score may give rise to additional learning requirements (a careful reading of the Teaching Regulations of the degree course is required);
• For open access courses, the negative result of the test does not affect enrolment. Failure to achieve a minimum score may give rise to additional learning requirements to be fulfilled within the first year of the course  (a careful reading of the Teaching Regulations of the degree course is required).

2) For information on the topics and dates of the test, please consult the page relating to the admission notices of the courses of interest. The admissions notice is the document that explains how to enrol at the University and offers useful information on the test.

3) A dedicated section is available on the Moodle Orientation platform where you can consult the numerous initiatives, including:

• Preparing for the entrance tests The material useful for preparing for the tests can be consulted.

Enrolment on the platform is easy and free; For any clarification write to orienta@unipd.it.
