MAECI scholarships

Every year the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation offers scholarships to international students and Italian students who live abroad. For more information, please visit the following link.

A “Study in Italy” grant includes

€ 900 per month allowance, paid on a quarterly basis to the Italian bank account of the recipients. The first instalment of the grant can be received only after the completion of the University enrolment and the submission of all the documents requested, according to the necessary administrative procedures. The MAECI will begin the disbursement procedures at the end of each quarter. Individual payments will therefore commence after that period. The last instalment of the grant will be paid only upon the verification of satisfactory academic progress.

Grants are awarded for a period of study of 6 (six) or 9 (nine) months (from January to October).

Recipients are exempted from the payment of university tuition fees (except for the regional tax of 140 euros and a duty stamp of 16 euros).
