For the purpose of calculating the academic merit in the provisional ranking, only exams taken and recorded in the academic career (and visible at Punto Blu) within August 10, 2025 will be considered. Students with anomalies with the exams registration shall contact the Academic Services via B in Touch.

In order to reach the minimum merit requirements needed to request the Right to University Education financial aid, in addition to the credits already earned, students may use bonus credits if not already used.

Please note that the number of credits needed to access the ranking will be calculated based on the credits required for each past academic year, starting with the absolute first-year of enrollment. This rule is also applied to anyone who has interrupted the normal progression of the attended years of the program (e.g. students who repeat or have repeated a year of the program, and other interruptions), except in cases of temporary interruption of university studies pursuant to article 8 clause 5 of D.P.C.M. 9 April 2001.

In the event of course changes, it should be noted that, for the purposes of calculating the merit, they will be considered only credits valid for Bachelor of Science, Master of Science and Integrated Master of Arts in Law attended at the time of the request of the benefit.

The ISU benefit assigned for the a.y. 2025-2026 will be included in the student's financial situation, which can be viewed at the Punto Blu (> administrative area> Fees, Funding and Housing) ONLY after the Fees, Funding and Housing Office has verified that the student is regularly enrolled in the first year or regularly enrolled in the year following the first to a.y. 2025-2026 For this reason, students who in the a.y. 2025-2026  will be "enrolled with reserve" (or have enrollment subject to reserve) will not be able to view in the system the benefit assigned for the a.y. 2025-2026 and will not be able to receive a refund of the first installment paid (advance payment) for the a.y. 2025-2026  until the reserve is lifted.
