Akademik Koşullar

Applicants must obtain a recognised high school diploma by August 30, 2026, awarded after at least 12 years of total education that grants access to university-level studies in the country awarding the qualification. Candidates with only 11 years of schooling may still qualify if they have completed at least one year of university studies with passing grades, or completed a Foundation Course at a recognised Italian university. Priority is given to applicants with a GPA of 75% or higher at time of applying (equivalent to CCC in A-levels, 31 points in the IB Diploma, or GPA 3.0 in the US curriculum). IB candidates must meet the specific requirements set out in Cattolica's IB Admission Policy. US high school applicants must hold a diploma earned after at least 2 full years in a US high school, plus either three AP exams (minimum score 3) in different subjects, one completed year of university studies, or a qualifying foundation course. A-level candidates must pass at least 3 A-Level exams in different subjects (A-Level Italian is not counted for Italian citizens). The programme is delivered at the Milan campus over 3 years (180 ECTS) by the Faculty of Political and Social Sciences and combines political science, history, economics, law, sociology, and psychology. Applicants are expected to demonstrate basic logical, quantitative, and analytical skills and a background in world history, institutions, and cultures.

The certificate must be uploaded at the time of application. Accepted certificates and minimum scores for undergraduate Bachelor's degree programmes: IELTS Academic 6.0; TOEFL iBT 84; Cambridge English: First (FCE) / Advanced (CAE) / Proficiency (CPE) accepted at B2-C2 levels; Cambridge English: Business Vantage / Higher accepted at B2-C1; Cambridge IGCSE First Language English grade D; Cambridge IGCSE English as a Second Language grade C; PTE Academic 46; Trinity ISE II/III/IV B2-C2; Oxford Test of English Advanced B2.

Full IB Diploma Programme students taught primarily in English and Cattolica Foundation Programme completers are also exempt. Applicants from 18 African nations require individual assessment based on exam results and graduation year. Visa-requiring nationals (e.g. Iran, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal) must provide a certificate regardless of prior exemption status. Duolingo English Test is not listed among accepted certificates. [uncertain on mother-tongue native-speaker exemption rules beyond the published country list]

Sınav / Test

No mandatory standardised entrance test for international applicants. SAT or ACT scores are not mandatory but may strengthen the application. Selection assessment is based on high school grades (penultimate-year transcript with minimum GPA 75% recommended for priority), motivation letter, and English language certificate. American/Canadian applicants must provide either SAT or ACT test results or take the Cattolica Admission Test (Foundation Knowledge Assessment / VPI). The Admissions Committee may invite shortlisted candidates to a short interview. Applicants should also demonstrate basic logical, quantitative, and analytical skills and background in world history and cultures.
