Application deadlines for Italy

Set by Universitaly, the Ministry of University and Research pre-enrolment portal for academic year 2026/2027. An individual university or programme can close earlier.

Visa application deadline for bachelor's, master's and first- and second-level academic diplomas
30 November 2026

Italy runs international admission through pre-enrolment on Universitaly, followed by a visa application at an Italian embassy or consulate. The official consular notice for 2026/2027 states that 'Pre-enrollment applications, which are preliminary to the subsequent enrollment phases, must be submitted through the Universitaly portal' and that 'The visa application deadline is November 30, 2026', covering bachelor's, master's and first- and second-level academic diploma programmes. Each university sets its own, earlier, pre-enrolment date inside that window and publishes it on its own portal.
