July 2025
Accommodation availability and Summer School opportunity
Students in need of staying in Milan also during the month of July will have the opportunity to reserve a room according to what indicated in paragraph: “Staying in Milan: book your accommodation”. It will not be possible to request to extend the stay in July exactly in one's own accommodation, but any student – if already assignee of a room in one of the Bocconi residence also in June 2025, can in any case request a room at the Isonzo residence until all available places are filled. In addition, in paragraph “Collaborative Opportunities: Summer School Residence Ambassadors” another opportunity of permanence in the Bocconi residence halls for July is described, and it is dedicated to students willing to actively share the Summer School experience.
Starting in the summer of 2025, for Bocconi students already staying in the residence halls during the a.y. 2024-25 who need to stay in Milan in July as well, the University has reserved an entire building, Isonzo Residence, which with about 200 total available places will be able to accommodate all students in need of staying in Milan in July (assignment period June 27-July 27, 2025). In August, however, all Bocconi residence halls will be closed.
It will be possible to check the availability in Isonzo Residence and book a room for the month of July through a dedicated application, available from February 3 until all available places are filled, and in any case no later than May 18, 2025. All those who book will be required to pay the July monthly rate based on the same rate applied (full or preferential) depending on their annual assignment a.y. 2024-25.
Rooms in Isonzo will be available:
>Full rate: 750,00 euros
>Preferential rate: 375,00 euros
Reservations confirmed for the month of July cannot be subsequently cancelled; the expected amount will still be due from the student even if their need to stay in Milan for the month of July no longer applies.
Rooms will be assigned following the application order and until all available places are filled. In the event that the number of requests exceeds the availabilities, the office will try to find an alternative solution.

Finally, they will be in touch with the relevant Bocconi offices for all information or needs related to the Summer School students staying in the residence.
Finally, they may be contacted or involved by offices to channel specific organizational information through them regarding one or more resident students. In the same way, they may approach the residence staff and offices to report special issues or situations they may have become aware of.
Their availability is required between 6pm- 10am for the period July 6-19, 2025.
