Bocconi International Award Graduate


Bocconi International Award Graduate — Key information
Tuition and fees 50% waiver

Bocconi University
is committed to making our superior level of higher education available to
outstanding students. For the provision of
these Awards, Bocconi University commits its own resources and generous
donations from private donors, Alumni, individuals and foundations. Awards
provide recipients with valuable financial support, ensuring students can enjoy
the benefits of a top-quality academic experience regardless of their financial
situation. Bocconi International Awards will be made available to first-year Graduate
applicants for the 2022-2023 academic year based on their academic standing.

The International
Award includes a 50% tuition waiver, worth approximately € 6,000
per year.

The provisions
below constitute official publication of the regulations a.y. 2022-2023 of the
“Bocconi International Award Graduate” benefit for students enrolled in the
first year of a MSc programme in the a.y. 2022-2023.

1. Eligible
students

Academic profiles considered to be amongst the top
applicants in the "International" sessions will be considered for an
International Award based on the admission's application submitted to Bocconi
University. A separate application will not be required. The Bocconi
International Award evaluation will primarily be based on the candidate’s
academic achievement. In addition to academic achievement, the complete dossier
provided to the Admissions office will be evaluated. The Selection of awardees
will be carried out by a Committee, nominated by the Rector, including the Dean
of the Graduate School and the Dean for International Affairs, whose decisions
about numbers, amounts and recipients is final and unquestionable. The number
of awards to applicants will not be equally divided amongst the different
rounds. The majority of awards will be allocated in the first relevant rounds:
the final percentage of awarding for each round is at the discretion of the
Committee.

2. Awarding

The assignment of an award will be communicated to
awarded students together with admission results.

3. Acceptance

Awarded students will need to follow the procedure
indicated in the email they will receive by the Fees, Funding and Housing
Office soon after the publication of admission results and therefore complete
the online scholarship acceptance procedure by the enrollment deadline.

As
previously mentioned, the Bocconi International Award is also supported by
donor companies, Alumni, individuals and foundations who sometimes wish to
identify a single deserving student and convert (generally by the end of
September 2022) the Bocconi International Award in a named scholarship. In
order to facilitate possible contacts with the donors, awarded students
will be required to upload an updated version of their curriculum
vitae, that might be shared with the Fundraising Office, in the dedicated upload
space of the application.  

The benefit
for the academic year 2022-2023 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 verification by the Fees, Funding and
Housing Office of the regular enrollment for the academic year 2022-2023. For
this reason, students who in the academic year 2022-2023 will be "registered
with reserve" (or have enrollment subject to reserve) will not
be able to view in the system the benefit assigned for the academic year
2022-2023 until the reserve is lifted.



The Bocconi International Award will be automatically renewed for the entire legal duration
of the regular course of study if the following requirements are met: 

— enrollment requirements:
completion of the enrollment in each academic year within the deadlines
foreseen by Academic Services;

— merit requirements:

• the second year (AY 2023-2024) provided the awardee earns at least 50 credits as of 10 August 2023.

Any changes in the number of credits, which may derive from exceptional measures, will be communicated through the publication on the website.

Please note that the Bocconi International Award can be renewed for the entire legal duration of the regular course of study. The Bocconi International Award cannot be renewed for fuori corso year/s.

The renewal of the award is also subject to the payment of tuition and fees at Bocconi. For this reason, students enrolled in a Double/Joint Degree that, based on agreements between participating universities, offers a full tuition waiver at Bocconi and/or scholarships that cover tuition and fees to be paid to the partnered university will not be allowed to renew the award for the academic year in which they are exempted from the payment of tuition and fees at Bocconi University.

Please note that bonus credits ARE NOT applicable to the Bocconi International Award.

If the merit requirements are not met, the Merit Award will be revoked. Once the Award is revoked, it cannot be restored.
The provisions above constitute official publication of the regulations a.y. 2022-2023 concerning the renewal of the “Graduate Bocconi International Award” benefit for assignees in the a.y. 2022-2023.

.

The award will be revoked in
the following situations:

• award
of an equal or larger benefit in Bocconi for the following academic years; it
is specified in this regard that in case the student should subsequently lose
the major benefit, the Bocconi Graduate International Award cannot be reinstated;

• verifications carried out by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office reveal false declarations made by the student for the assignment of the award: the revocation shall take effect starting from the moment in which the illicit behavior took place and shall entail the full payment of due tuition and fees starting from the academic year in which the student benefited from the waiver following false declarations (articles 71 and 75 of Italian D.P.R. 445/2000);

• they receive disciplinary sanctions imposed by Bocconi University: disciplinary sanctions imposed by Bocconi University will result in a revocation of the benefit starting from the day the disciplinary sanction is imposed. Students whose award is revoked will be required to pay in full any tuition and fees installments that may still be due at the date of the revocation, according to the official deadlines defined by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office.

The provisions above constitute official publication of the regulations a.y. 2022-2023 concerning the revocation of the “Bocconi International Award Graduate” benefit for assignees in the a.y. 2022-2023.
