unibz publishes this figure without stating which year it applies to, so it may already be out of date. Treat it as a starting point and check the course page for the current rate. Flag it below if you know it has changed.

unibz charges one fee regardless of nationality — no separate international or non-EU rate is published — so this is recorded as all-students. The course page words it as "ca. € 1200 per year" and attaches no academic year to it, hence undated. The University’s study guide breaks the same amount into two instalments of €600 (due 13 October 2026 and 31 March 2027) for students within one year of the normal length of the programme, rising to €900 + €600 from the second year beyond it; a €16 revenue stamp, and a €30 fine for late payment, are charged separately. Foreign students holding an Italian government grant are fully exempt on request, and holders of a South Tyrol provincial grant are reimbursed. Places are capped and split by nationality: this programme lists 28 EU + 2 Non-EU.

How unibz compares

Against the other universities in Italy on StudyPath, using each one's verified international fees and its own published housing prices. Universities are only compared with others charging in the same currency (and, for housing, for the same period), so no figure here has been converted. A ~ marks a year worked out from a per-term or whole-course fee.

unibz's lowest undergraduate fee for international students is €1,200 a year, for Bachelor in Computer Science. Of the 6 other universities in Italy we list with undergraduate fees in EUR, 4 charge more at their lowest, 2 charge less. Their lowest undergraduate fees run from €300 (Sapienza) to €3,943.04 (PoliMi).

Student housing. unibz's own lowest published rate is €250 per month. Of the 5 other universities in Italy we list that publish housing per month in EUR, 3 charge more, 1 charges less, 1 charges the same. Their lowest published rates run from €135 (Padua) to €500 (Sapienza).

Living costs. The living-cost figure for a student visa to Italy is €10,179.85 per year (annui), on top of tuition (figure for a partire dall'a.a. 2026/2027; read 19 Aug 2026 from consbuenosaires.esteri.it). The authority attaches conditions that can change this amount; see them in full on student finance.

Accommodation

€250–€550per month

Private-market rent for one person in Bozen-Bolzano, as the university's own Study Guide publishes it, varying by whether it is a double room, a single room or a one-bedroom flat. Not a hall rate: unibz states it does not act as a mediator between landlords and students.

unibz also has student halls at the Bozen-Bolzano and Brixen-Bressanone campuses housing 700 students, but the Study Guide and the student-halls page publish no rate for them; applications usually open from mid-June to the beginning of July. The Study Guide separately says a student needs at least €800 a month for living costs in the Bozen-Bolzano area excluding tuition.

Published by the university itself, not a live listings price. Actual cost depends on room type, availability and when you apply.

Money you must prove before the visa

€10,179.85per year (annui), for a university course — the same instructions express it as 783,06 euro a month over 13 months

Shown as a balance in a bank account. You keep control of it.

Figure published for: a partire dall'a.a. 2026/2027 (from academic year 2026/2027), in the mission's own wording. The Ministero dell'Università e della Ricerca published these procedures to cover two consecutive academic years, 2026/2027 and 2027/2028. This amount is revised regularly, so check it again before you transfer anything.

The money must be shown by documentation attesting economic resources that are lawful and traceable (lecite e tracciabili), and it is preferably the student's own or otherwise made available by their family. Support may come from parents or relatives up to the fourth degree — the Italian Embassy in Tunis spells this out as father, mother, siblings, grandparents, uncles and aunts, and blood cousins, with the relationship certified by original civil-status documents, translated into Italian, legalised and apostilled — or from Italian institutions of established standing including universities, local governments, or foreign bodies the embassy considers reliable. An Italian government scholarship worth at least the full €10,179.85 removes the need to prove funds separately; a smaller scholarship must be topped up with evidence covering the shortfall. The total can be reduced proportionally where the course runs less than 12 months. Individual missions add their own machinery: the Tunis checklist requires a bank 'dichiarazione di blocage' certifying an IRREVOCABLE arrangement to transfer 783,06 euro a month, with the total initially blocked irrevocably at the bank for a year — that is a mission-level requirement read on that mission's checklist, not something every Italian mission was confirmed to impose. Application deadlines are fixed too: visa applications for Laurea and Laurea Magistrale had to be filed by 30 November 2026 for a.a. 2026/2027 and by 31 October 2027 for a.a. 2027/2028.

Work during study

A residence permit for study or training purposes (permesso di soggiorno per motivi di studio) allows subordinate (employee) work up to 20 hours per week. Secondary but widely-corroborated detail (not independently re-verified against a primary source) holds that the 20-hour figure is cumulative over 52 weeks, capped at 1,040 hours a year, and needs the educational institution's authorisation.

Post-study work visa

Permesso di soggiorno per attesa occupazione (residence permit while awaiting employment) . Up to 1 year
Available under Article 22(11) of Legislative Decree 286/1998 to someone who becomes unemployed and registers with the Centro per l'Impiego (public employment centre) — including a graduate whose study permit is ending. A dedicated route exists for graduates specifically (documented at questura level, citing Articles 27-ter(9-bis) and 39-bis.1 of the same decree) for holders of a doctorate, a university master's, a bachelor's/specialist degree (laurea triennale/specialistica), or an equivalent higher technical diploma earned in Italy, who must show means of support, health insurance, proof of the qualification, and registration as immediately available for work with the employment centre. The permit itself is valid for one year, cannot be renewed indefinitely as such (the same 'attesa occupazione' status is re-issued only if the person becomes unemployed again later while on another status), and confers the right to work while it lasts.

Route to permanent residence

The realistic route to long-term status runs through converting to an employment-based residence permit (commonly within the annual 'decreto flussi' entry-quota system that also governs converting a study permit directly to a work permit) and then accumulating years of legal residence. Once someone has held a valid residence permit continuously for at least 5 years, they can apply for the EU long-term residence permit (permesso di soggiorno UE per soggiornanti di lungo periodo) — Italy's own page states this 5-year prior residence as an indispensable requirement, and describes it as valid for 10 years for an adult (5 years for a minor) following a 2021 law change that ended its previous 'unlimited duration' framing. Absences from Italy of under 6 consecutive months, and no more than 10 months in total across the 5-year period, do not break continuity. A minimum-income and public-order/security requirement also applies.

Route to citizenship

Italian citizenship by residence (cittadinanza per residenza) is granted by presidential decree on the Interior Minister's proposal, under Law 91/1992. Article 9 sets the residence period at 10 years of legal residence in Italy for a non-EU foreigner — the general route most relevant to StudyPath’s international students — but the same article sets several shorter, specific periods: 4 years for a citizen of an EU member state; 5 years for a stateless person or a foreigner who has served the Italian state (including abroad) for at least 5 years, or for an adult foreigner adopted by an Italian citizen (5 years after the adoption); 3 years for someone born in Italy who has lived there legally since; and 2 years for someone whose parent or grandparent was an Italian citizen by birth. A separate, discretionary route (Article 9(2)) lets citizenship be granted to a foreigner who has rendered eminent services to Italy or where an exceptional State interest exists. Italy permits multiple citizenship without requiring renunciation: Article 11 of the same law states that a citizen who holds, acquires or reacquires a foreign citizenship retains Italian citizenship, and may renounce it only if they choose to and are resident abroad — so becoming Italian does not require giving up an applicant's original nationality.

What the government currently prioritises

Italy does not gate work-permit eligibility with an occupation-shortage list the way some other countries on StudyPath do. Instead, converting a study permit into an employment permit is capped by the 'decreto flussi' — an annual government decree that sets numerical entry quotas for non-EU workers, renewed (and its total size reset) each year, rather than a list of named in-demand occupations or professions. StudyPath does not reproduce the decree's quota figures, which are re-set annually and were outside this check's scope.

All figures cited to poliziadistato.it (the Polizia di Stato, which administers residence permits at the questura/prefettura level and is the practical day-to-day immigration authority for this process) — the two other pre-approved Italy domains, interno.gov.it and esteri.it, both returned HTTP 403 / 'Access Denied' to every request tried (both this project's plain-HTTP fetcher and, for interno.gov.it, the real-browser fallback), so no interno.gov.it or esteri.it page could be used despite being pre-approved; a future collector with different network conditions should retry them, since interno.gov.it in particular likely carries fuller detail on the annual decreto flussi and on general immigration policy. Two of this entry's citations (the 'attesa occupazione' duration, and an internal PDF confirming the graduate-specific route's legal basis) were extracted from binary PDF files using pdftotext (poppler-utils) with explicit UTF-8 output encoding — the default encoding produced corrupted accented characters that would not have matched Italian text correctly, a pitfall in reading Italian-government PDFs. The graduate-specific 'attesa occupazione' route (Articles 27-ter(9-bis) and 39-bis.1, D.Lgs. 286/98) was documented in a dated (2020) province-level questura guide rather than a national policy page; the core duration figure (1 year) was independently confirmed on a separate, undated national-level Polizia di Stato PDF, giving two consistent citations for the same figure. Italy does not appear on StudyPath's university list yet, so this entry is general country-level context. citizenshipRoute added 17 August 2026: interno.gov.it and every prefettura.interno.gov.it subdomain tried returned 'Access Denied' to automated fetching and to a real browser alike — the same complete block already documented in this entry's notes above for residencyRoute, now confirmed to extend to citizenship pages too. StudyPath instead cited normattiva.it, the Presidenza del Consiglio dei Ministri's own official legislative database and the authoritative current text of Italian law — a new domain accepted as a government source here — reading Articles 9 and 11 of Law 91/1992 directly rather than a secondary description of them. Article 9's in-force version (current from 24-5-2025 per the page's own revision date) and Article 11's text (unchanged since 1992) were both captured via a browser capture and archived against the real normattiva.it permalink. naturalisationStatus set to 'published-route' on 18 August 2026: the authority already cited under citizenshipRoute publishes criteria a foreign resident could actually follow, which is the only claim this field makes. It is deliberately not a judgement about how attainable that route is in practice. studentVisaFunds added 19 August 2026. Italy publishes this through its diplomatic network rather than on one central page: the underlying rule is the Ministero dell'Università e della Ricerca's procedures for international students, restated by each mission, and the legal basis the missions cite is art. 4 comma 3 of D.lgs 286/1998 and allegato A punto 17 of D.I. 850/2011, with the reference amount taken from the table in the Ministero dell'Interno Direttiva of 1/3/2000. Two missions were archived and agree on the figure: the Consulate General in Buenos Aires, cited here because it states the amount together with the academic year it starts from, and the Embassy in Tunis, which adds the monthly breakdown (783,06 euro a month for 13 months), the scholarship top-up rule, the fourth-degree-relative rule and the pro-rata reduction for courses under 12 months. Note that 783,06 x 13 does not land exactly on 10.179,85; both figures are recorded as the authority prints them rather than reconciled, since the discrepancy is the source's, not StudyPath’s.
