Non-EU citizens with valid stay permit
If you are a non-EU citizen with valid stay permit for Italy (according to the dispositions of the Italian Law no. 286/98, art. 39, 5) you have to follow the same procedure as Italian and EU citizens: by presenting an application for pre-enrolment by the deadline set down by the Free University of Bozen/Bolzano.
If you have a foreign qualification, you will also have to present a declaration of value.
This declaration of value can be obtained from an Italian embassy or consulate in the candidate’s home country.
This certificate, which is issued by the Consulate’s academic office, confirms that the qualification obtained at secondary school (for admission to undergraduate degree courses) or the university degree (for admission to postgraduate courses) by the candidate would allow him/her to be admitted to higher education in the country in which the qualifications were achieved.
If the candidate’s certificate/s is/are not written in Italian or German, an official translation into Italian must be attached to the declaration of value.
If the duration of studies in the country in which you received the qualification, is less than 12 years, you will need to present a certificate that states you have passed all the exams required:

• for the first year of university (in the event the local school system lasts 11 years)
• for the first two years of university (in the event the local school system lasts 10 years).
