Economics: Behavior, Data and Policy

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

In order to be admitted to the Bachelor’s Degree programme in Economics: Behavior, Data and Policy, prospective students must hold an upper secondary school diploma or equivalent qualification obtained abroad after at least 12 years of schooling; they also must have an adequate educational background and possess basic skills in the area of language comprehension, logic and mathematics.

Assessment of basic knowledge and skills will be ascertained through an online admission test, held in English language – English TOLC-E admission test, the Online Test organized by CISIA (Interuniversity Consortium for Integrated Access Systems), that will focus on the topics listed in the syllabus given at the following link: https://www.cisiaonline.it/area-tematica-english-tolc-economia/structure-and-syllabus/
Selection of students is based on the English TOLC-E admission test too; admission ranking is exclusively based on the score obtained in logic and mathematics sections of the English TOLC-E test. Applicants who want to transfer from other Degree programmes or who already hold a degree and request its recognition (partial or total) must also sit for the test and rank sufficiently high.
The admission test is organized in two sessions: the first session, in spring, is exclusively reserved to students attending their last year of secondary school; the second session, open to all candidates, will take place in summer.
International non-EU candidates residing abroad – both those in their last year of secondary school and those who already got their diploma in previous years – must apply in the first admission session, in spring.
Candidates (both EU and non-EU) who don’t reach an overall score of 10 in mathematics and logic sections of the English TOLC-E will be excluded from the admission procedure.

Additional Learning Requirements (OFA)
Admitted candidates who didn’t reach an overall score of 15 in mathematics and logic sections of the English TOLC-E will be assigned Additional Learning Requirements (OFA, Obblighi Formativi Aggiuntivi) in the area of logic and mathematics, that must be fulfilled within the first year; students who do not fulfil OFA within this deadline will not be able to take the exams of the second or third year. Further information on these OFA are available online on the Bachelor Degree programme website.
