How to enroll

All those who intend to enroll in a Master's Degree course must enroll in an assessment procedure for access requirements, on the Esse3 web-based career management system. This procedure will be activated with the start of enrollments for the new academic year, starting from July 2024.

Step 1 - Register for the Eligibility Check

1. Log into ESSE3.
2. Submit your documents for the Eligibility Check for Master’s degrees: submit the required documents (self-certification with a list of the exams you have completed and corresponding marks and SSD – Scientific Disciplinary Sectors, or areas, and language certificate if needed) on ESSE3.
3. Check the results on ESSE3. Once you have submitted your documents, these will be checked by the relevant Teaching and Student Services Unit, and your status will appear as one of the following:   

• PROVA DA EFFETTUARE (Eligibility Check still to be carried out) - this will be displayed as soon as you have correctly submitted your application. Please note that you are not required to take any action at this stage.
• IN VALUTAZIONE (In progress) - this means that the Check is currently in progress and being carried out by the relevant Teaching and Student Services Unit.

Please note: your status will continue to appear as ‘In progress’ in the following cases: a) if you need to attend an interview: applicants will be asked to attend an interview if: 1) they have not yet completed their Bachelor’s at the time of applying; 2) their Bachelor’s degree class is not among those recognised for exemption (see section ‘Modalità e date di verifica’); 3) their Bachelor’s degree grade is below 99/110; b) if some requirements are missing (e.g. exams that have not yet been recorded, missing language certificates or SSD, etc.). The relevant Teaching and Student Services Unit will contact you by e-mail if needed.

• "RESPINTO" (Rejected) - this means that you do not meet the entry requirements, and you will not be able to enrol.
• "ESONERATO" (Exempt, or passed) - this means that your entry requirements have been judged as valid. In this case, you can enrol in your chosen degree programme on ESSE3.

Please note that you may be contacted by email by the relevant Teaching and Student Services Unit if you submitted your application despite not having already gained your degree: in this case, you will be ‘conditionally enrolled’, and your enrolment will be conditional on you obtaining the required degree by the deadlines set.

Step 2 – Enrol

4. Register on ESSE3 by the deadline set out in the Academic Calendar. To complete your enrolment, you will need to scan and upload a passport photo that complies with the requirements set out in: ‘How to add your photo’.

5. From the ‘payment’ dashboard on ESSE3 make the payment of the first instalment of your student fees via PagoPA, by the deadline set out in the Academic Calendar.

6. Wait for confirmation email. Please note: you will not receive the confirmation email immediately, since the Enrolment Office will need to process and check your documents and qualifications before confirming your enrolment.

Enrolment conditional on the student obtaining the Bachelor’s degree

Students who are about to complete their Bachelor’s degree and graduate can enrol in the academic year 2024/2025 and pay the first instalment of their Master’s tuition fees (NOT their Bachelor’s tuition fees) by the deadline set out in the Academic Calendar, provided they obtain their Bachelor’s degree by 31 december 2024.

Moreover:
- students who are about to complete their Bachelor’s degree at the University of Verona and ‘conditionally enrolled’ in this Master’s degree programme, will be automatically confirmed as enrolled students as soon as they graduate;
- students who graduate at another University must necessarily inform the University via help-desk, by 31 december 2024, that they have obtained their Bachelor’s degree.
