Destinations and Reports

In order to better understand which partner universities fit best with your need and program expectations, Bocconi provides the materials and information below.

  • On yoU@B — in the International programs section you can find our destinations brochure that includes the links to Partner Universities websites and/or fact sheets; as well as the list of Courses whose conversion was authorized to former exchange students in previous years. The PDF version of the document can be found at the bottom of this page.
  • On our Reserved Area you can find the reports of the previous exchange students;

In addition, please consider the following elements:

For each Partner University, you will find all the relevant information for your application, and in particular:

  • University code which unambiguously identifies the university, school and department. For European destinations 2 codes are indicated, the first is the Erasmus code and the second is the University code, please note that the Erasmus code is not related to the city of your exchange destination.
  • Number of available slots and any specifications (e.g. notes on any slots out of the total reserved to specific degree programs). Slots will be defined on an annual basis and may change based on existing bilateral agreements with partner universities.
  • Exchange period(s) available (terms). If two or more terms are indicated as available, if selected, students will make a choice during the acceptance stage; if only one period is indicated as available, selected students will be automatically assigned to that term. In case of universities with a limited number of slots for each semester, there will be specified Slots for each term (see paragraph 4.2.1, Guide to the Exchange Program, for details).
  • Study programs the university is recommended for/reserved for/not available for, based on the educational offer available. Students cannot indicate universities reserved for study programs other than their own or not available for their own program, at the time of application. Students may indicate universities recommended for study programs other than their own at the time of application, subject to careful evaluation of the offer of courses at that destination and compatibility with needs of the program structure.
  • Language required for the selection and possible Additional language requirements or Additional academic requirements that the student must consider when applying.

Partner Universities differ significantly among each other for the requirements students must certificate (ex. min GPA, Additional language requirements), the length and the dates of the exchange semester, the spots available for each semester, etc. Please consider all those elements carefully when applying for the exchange program.

The accommodation offered by the host universities abroad can vary: check each partner school's website/factsheet and read former exchange students' reports for details. Please note that Bocconi Study Abroad Office is not in charge of students' accommodation; the host university will provide some help and information directly to selected students (if available).

Students who study abroad pay regular Bocconi tuition for the semester they are abroad, but they do not have to pay fees to the partner institution. Consider that Scholarships for international mobility  are available and allocated by the Fees Funding and Housing Office, in cooperation with Università Bocconi. Moreover, Erasmus + scholarships (for destinations included in the Erasmus +) and other possible scholarships (to be allotted on the basis of specific agreements with partner Institutions) are available.

International students or students with dual citizenship cannot apply for some Schools in the countries for which they hold current citizenship. Details will be available in the 24-25 Destinations list. You can use the current destination list as a reference.

Rules for entry the Countries may differ according to students’ citizenship. It is up to the student to verify the suitable procedures for obtaining the appropriate visa, if required, and any other documents necessary for the Exchange Program to be carried out in full compliance with local laws.
