Master's degree
After a bachelor's degree in a related field. Universities check your subjects and credits, CGPA and English (IELTS, TOEFL or sometimes a Medium of Instruction letter).
PhD & beyond

Frequently asked questions
Is the first consultation really free?
Yes. The first consultation is free and there is no obligation to continue.
Can I get guidance online?
Yes. Most students talk to us on WhatsApp, phone or Facebook — you don't need to visit an office.
Do you guarantee admission or a visa?
No honest consultant can. Universities decide admission and the Italian embassy decides visas. We make sure your file is complete, correct and on time.
Can I apply with a low CGPA?
Often yes. Many Italian universities assess your whole profile, and requirements differ by programme. Check the entry requirements on each university page or ask us.
Is IELTS compulsory?
Not always. Some universities accept a Medium of Instruction (MOI) letter, but the embassy or scholarship may still prefer a test. Each university page shows what is published.
How much money do I need?
Public universities often charge low, income-based fees, and regional scholarships can cover fees, housing and a yearly grant. For the visa you must show proof of funds — the amount is set each year by the Italian authorities.
