What are basic knowledge

What is threshold knowledge

To enrol in a degree program, it is essential to possess basic knowledge in key subjects. The purpose of threshold knowledge verification is to ensure there are no significant deficiencies in specific disciplines. This verification may occur concurrently with the admission test (for courses with limited enrolment) or be scheduled during the first year.

If the verification reveals gaps in one or more subjects, matriculation is still possible; however, students must complete additional activities, known as Integrative Learning Requirements (OFAs), within the first academic year. Failure to do so will prevent enrolment in the second year.

To assist students in meeting OFA requirements, each course of study offers specific learning activities.


Basic subject requirements

  1. English language: B1 level (computerized) please note: students who rank below 24/30 in the English language admission test must take the B1 level computerized test at the University Language Center (Centro Linguistico di Ateneo - CLA).
  2. First and second language (if different from English) A2 level test at CLA. This applies to French, Russian, Spanish, and German languages. There is no threshold knowledge requirement for the Chinese language.
  3. Italian language (Level B2, all modules) Mandatory only for non-EU students and those who graduated from a high school where the language of instruction was not Italian. Without this certification, students cannot take any exams.

Students who do not pass the threshold knowledge test by September 30 of the year of enrolment will be enroled in the 1st year as a repeat students.
