  11. Why am I unable to fill in my study plan?
    Several reasons could prevent you from filling in your study plan:
    ● It's not the correct period for filling in the study plan: check on the following web page what are the time frames for filling in the study plan.
    ● You have not paid your University fee: for being able to fill in your study plan you must have paid the first installment of the related academic year.
    ● You are a repeating student: fill in the study plan only if you want to modify the study plan from submitted the previous year.
    ● You are enrolled as a part-time student: write via FILO DIRETTO for receiving the study plan template, if already available, or the contacts of your course coordinator for arranging it.
    ● You are a graduating student: you do not need to create a new study plan.
    ● Your Student Portal Reserved Area is blocked due to missing updated documents: e.g. an expired residence permit or an outdated sports fitness certificate for Physical Education students, etc.
     
  12. I am enrolled under condition in a Master's program. Can I fill in my study plan?
    Yes, you can, but the study plan will only be implemented after you will have obtained your Bachelor's Degree.

  15. I replaced an exam in my study plan, but it still appears in my digital booklet. Why?
    This is correct. When you replace an exam, it is removed from your study plan, but it remains visible in your digital booklet as an unplanned exam. You do not need to take it.
     
  16. How and when can I choose my curriculum?
    You can choose your curriculum when filling in your study plan online.
     
  17. How and when can I change my curriculum?
    If you want to change your curriculum, you need to send a request to FILO DIRETTO before proceeding with the online filling in of the study plan.
     
  18. Can I take exams ahead of schedule?
    Yes, you can add them in the current academic year study plan as extra exams, up to a maximum of 24 CFUs. In the following year, when filling in the study plan online, you will have to deselect the extra exam flag and click on 'skip the choice'. You will then find them in the list of the compulsory exams in the correspondent academic year.
  1. How can I book an exam date?
    To enroll for exams you need to access your Student Portal Reserved Area > Exams > Exam sessions. If you are enrolled in a degree course prior to the DM 509/99, you must contact the professors of each of the exams. In these specific cases, the recording process will still be paper-based.
     
  2. How can I enroll in an exam date?
    You can register for an exam session starting from twenty days before the exam date, till two days before the exam. The exam dates are visible as soon as they are added to the system, but you can only make a reservation from the twentieth day before the exam date. Some Departments may have different registration procedures that could eventually be found  on the departments websites.
     
  3. I can't register for exams. Why?
    There could be various reasons:
    Study plan: it might be that you haven’t filled in your study plan, or that your study plan hasn’t been implemented yet. In both cases, ask for information via FILO DIRETTO;
    Wrong timing: the registration period is indicated in your Student Portal Reserved Area, usually from the twentieth day up to the second day before the exam date;
    Written test preparatory to the oral exam: in these cases, you should only register for the written test, which can be found in the menu section called "Partial Exams";
    Attendance: the system may detect anomalies, and it might be that you haven’t obtained attendance (for example, you might have attended the lectures of a course, but can't take the exam until the summer session because it's a second-semester course);
    Blocked career: your career may be blocked for various reasons, such as an expired residence permit or an expired medical certificate (for sports science students). In these cases, write to FILO DIRETTO.
     
  4. Where does the professor publish exam grades?
    The professor publishes all exam results in the Results notice board (accessible in your Student Portal Reserved Area > Exams > Results notice board). You will also automatically receive a notification email when the grades are published.
     
  5. How can I check my exam grade?
    You can check your exam grade in the email notification you receive when the grade is published. If you accept the grade, there's no need to access your Student Portal Reserved Area.
     
  6. How can I accept an exam grade?
    Acceptance via your Student Portal ReservedArea is optional. According to the "tacit approval" rule, if you don't respond, the grade is considered accepted and will be recorded in your academic career. However, we recommend you to access the “Results notice board” to verify that the indicated grade (which will be then recorded in your academic career) is correct.
     
  7. How can I reject an exam grade?
    To reject an exam grade, you need to log in to your Student Portal Reserved Area. You have 5 calendar days (including Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays) to reject the grade (simply select the grade icon and reject it).
     
  8. Why can't I see my grade on the “Results notice board”?
    If you haven't received an email notifying you of the publication of your exam grade, it means that the professor has not published the grade yet. In case of an extreme delay in the publication, you can ask the professor for information.
     
  9. The grade published on the “Results notice board” is incorrect. What should I do?
    Within the 5-day acceptance/rejection period, contact the professor to request a correction. If you don't receive a response, reject the grade (still within the 5 days) and report the issue to the professor and the Student Administration Office (Segreteria Didattica) of your course degree (usually located inside the Department). This way, the professor won't be able to record an incorrect grade and will ensure the correct recording.
     
  10. I no longer see my grade on the “Results Notice Board”, and it hasn't been registered. What should I do?
    If 30 days have passed since the grade was published on the “Results Notice board”, and the professor has not registered it yet, the grade is no longer visible. However, this doesn't mean that it has been deleted and it can’t be registered anymore. Promptly contact the professor because they are responsible for applying a digital signature to the report that allows the system to register the grade.
     
  11. The professor claims to have registered the grade, but I can't see it. Why?
    It is possible that you have to pay some fees. Unpaid fees and extra fees prevent the registration of grades. Write to FILO DIRETTO for assistance in this case.
  1. What do I need to do to renew my enrollment?
    To renew your enrollment, you need to pay the first installment that you find in the "Payments" section of your Student Portal Reserved Area before the deadline. Once the payment is automatically processed, your enrollment will be finalized. 
  2. Can I renew my enrollment after the deadline?
    If you pay after the deadline, you will be required to pay an extra fee of €82, which is reduced by 30% if paid within 15 days from the deadline. 
  3. The extra fee shows a past date, is it correct?
    The extra fee has a fictitious deadline related to the start of the academic year in question. Until the extra fee is paid, you won't be able to record any academic events (e.g. passed exams won't appear in your digital booklet).
  4. I plan to graduate by April next year. Do I need to renew my enrollment?
    If you graduate by April, you won't need to pay the fees for the new academic year. Detailed information for students about to graduate is available in the box at the bottom of the page. 
  5. How can I make the payment for the fees?
    You should pay your fees via PagoPA. Invoices can be found in the "Payments" section of your Student Portal Reserved Area. You can review the different payment methods on this web page. 
  6. Why can't I see the enrollment fee to be paid?
    There could be various reasons:
    Irregular fees from the previous academic year;
    Payment of the last installment from the previous academic year made after 15/06;
    Loss of student status;
    Resuming studies after a career interruption.
    In all these cases, contact FILO DIRETTO.
  7. Do I need to meet specific requirements to be admitted to subsequent years?
    Some study programs have specific requirements for progressing to the next years of the program. Verify the details on this web page.
  8. I am enrolled as a repeating student. What does that mean? Being enrolled as a repeating student means that you either haven't obtained all the attendance signatures or you haven't met the requirements for admission to the next year, such as achieving a certain number of ECTS credits.
  9. What are the implications of my enrollment as a repeating student? If you are registered as a repeating student, you won't be able to take exams from the following year's program. In case you haven’t acquired the required attendance signatures, you are obligated to attend the classes again.
  10. I was assigned an OFA, but I didn't pass it. Can I enroll in the second year?
    If you don't pass the OFA within the time frame established by your course degree, you won't be able to enroll in the second year. Consequently, you will be enrolled as a repeating student in the first year.

Graduating students

An extra fee on the first installment will not be charged if, by December 31, 2023, you are missing a maximum of 24 ECTS credits (excluding the final thesis).

5. If I don’t graduate on time and I end up enrolling in the academic year 2023/24 after the deadline, will I have to pay an extra fee e on the past installments?

6. Can I request a 75% exemption from fees?

To request the 75% exemption, you need to:

  2. Where can I undertake a curricular internship? You can complete your curricular internship in any company that is already affiliated or can establish an affiliation with Almalaurea. Refer to this page for information about affiliated companies and organizations, and this page to view job postings on Almalaurea.

    Please note: the company should enter any changes on Almalaurea in time (extension, early closure, suspension, change of terms, etc.). If the company can't do this, you should report it by writing to FILO DIRETTO.

The activation procedure is completed via the Almalaurea platform. To proceed, you should follow the instructions provided on this web page.

    Please note: "extra-curricular" does not refer to an internship outside of your study plan and that the related credits are not required to obtain your degree, but it simply indicates an internship undertaken after graduation.

  8. Can I get validated work experience that I've already undertaken?
    Yes, after completing the activity, you should send to the relevant professor a detailed report about the work performed (hours/days, tasks, relevance to your degree course, etc.). The professor will decide whether to recognize the activity or not.

    Please note: it's better if the company itself writes the report, along with a brief assessment of the student.
