Scholarships for international students

The University of Turin funds 15 two-year scholarships to international students willing to enrol in the first year of a postgraduate degree program, a.y. 2019-2020.

To be considered an international student you need:

• to hold a valid qualification providing access to a Master’s degree programme obtained outside the Italian education system
• not to have Italian citizenship.

Applications will be evaluated on the basis of the GRE General Test.

Each scholarship amounts to 9,000 euros per year, gross of all charges for the beneficiary’s account. The awarding of 9,000 euros for the second year is subject to the achievement of academic merit requirements. Academic merit requirements will be published through an advice on the present webpage.

In order to be admitted and enrol in the chosen programme, non-EU students residing abroad must respect VISA procedures and deadlines concerning the access of foreign students to Italian university courses set in the Regulations issued by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research (MIUR).
