A. The procedure of issuing admission letter (Tutorial admission letter)
In order to get enrolled in a Master's Degree Course, you must receive an admission letter from the Course Coordinator. This can be done through Unipa Student Portal by starting an Enrolment application.
Your documents will first be reviewed by the administrative office, then forwarded to the Course Coordinator for academic evaluation.
IMPORTANT: The Admission Letter you receive does not guarantee enrolment or a visa.
You must still meet all UniPa requirements and pass the personal knowledge interview (see below).
B. After your admission letter application for the University of Palermo has been positively evaluated, your application is currently on hold pending the interview to assess your personal preparation and the required language skills.
After submitting your enrolment application and receiving the admission letter, you will be contacted by the course coordinator to complete the "personal knowledge interview." During this time, your application will be temporarily suspended until the course coordinator confirms the interview outcom.
This interview assesses:
Academic preparation
Motivation and expectations
English language proficiency
For further guidance, you can find additional tips and resources on the official page of your chosen course.
Successfully passing the interview will allow you to complete your enrolment application on the UniPa portal.
TUTORIAL
Be aware that the Admission Letter by the University of Palermo does not confer any right to obtain a visa. The final decision on the issue of a visa for study purposes is the exclusive jurisdiction of the diplomatic/consular Mission. The approval of a pre-enrolment request for a study course and the relating documentation produced by higher education institutions is to be considered a support for the evaluation procedures for study visas by diplomatic Missions and does not automatically grant the visa. The diplomatic-consular Missions must confirm that there is no students 'migration risk (D.I. 850/2011 art. 4 paragraph 2 ). MIUR2
