Enrolment with ECTS recognition is subjected to the payment of a fee of 300.00 Euros with the exception of enrolments with credit recognition for:

  • single courses or activities previously undertaken at Ca’ Foscari that have the same teaching code as the course of studies in which you plan to enrol.

  • transfer from another University;
  • simultaneous enrolment.

The payment invoice will be issued by the Enrolment Unit when the application will be successfully carried out.

  • Up to 47: admission to 1st year;  
  • From 48 to 107: admission to 2nd year;
  • From 108 or more: admission to 3rd year.

Please remember that while choosing your degree courses and your subjects, you will only find courses that are in effect in the 2024/2025 a.y: at the moment of completion of enrolment, we will take into consideration the credit recognition sheet and we will register you in the appropriate year and the program specified in the sheet.

The Campus will collect the requests for credit recognition which will be submitted to an evaluation by the Teaching College. The credits recognition sheet, once approved by the Board, will be sent to you via e-mail. Please remember to sign the sheet.

Recognition forms for previous Ca’ Foscari activities

It is possible to fill out the credits recognition sheet independently and attach it with the online registration form if you were to request recognition exclusively from previous studies carried out at Ca' Foscari which have the same teaching code as the course which you are registering for (for example, if you are claiming recognition of individual courses taken at Ca' Foscari).

Credits recognition forms for activities carried out at Ca' Foscari will be available in April 2024.

Criteria for ECTS Credits Recognition

Recognition will be made based on the following criteria:

  • the credits earned in former Bachelor’s courses will be recognized while maintaining the effective number of credits; the exception will be Ca’ Foscari students who have withdrawn/ceased their studies, for whom there are specific incentives;
  • exams already used as entry requirements will not be recognized.

If you already have a Professional Master’s Programme diploma, you can obtain a recognition of maximum 60 credits.

The activities recognized by Master’s/Specialist degrees or Professional Master’s already awarded will have no impact in terms of marks achieved on the total average for the Bachelor’s degree, but it will recognize the single courses and the student’s academic career that was suspended due to withdrawal, cessation or transfers from another university.
