Qualifications and knowledge required for admission Applicants to the Bachelor's degree programme in Studies in Cultural Heritage must have a high-school diploma or an equivalent qualification obtained abroad. They are also required to possess the linguistic and cultural competencies normally acquired in Italian upper-secondary schools focusing on the humanities, particularly as regards the domains of literature, history, geography and history of art. These competencies are essential for students to be able to approach texts and understand literary/artistic phenomena by situating them in the broader context of European culture.
Admission assessment Applicants wishing to enrol into this Bachelor's degree must first take a self-assessment test known as TOLC-SU, which is administered by the CISIA Consortium. Applicants can take the TOLC-SU test at the University of Milan or any other member university of CISIA. For information on when and how to take the TOLC-SU test, please refer to the call for applications available at https://beniculturali.cdl.unimi.it/it/iscriversi more information at https://www.unimi.it/en/study/enrolment
Additional learning requirements (OFA) and remedial activities Students can enrol regardless of the outcome of the self-assessment test. However, if their score in the section "Reading comprehension and Italian language proficiency" is lower than the minimum specified in the call for applications, they will have to fulfil additional learning requirements (also known as OFA, from the Italian Obblighi Formativi Aggiuntivi). The OFA will have to be fulfilled within the first year of the programme through remedial activities specifically planned by the University. For an overview of the remedial activities and the consequences of failing to meet the OFA, please visit https://www.unimi.it/en/education/faculties-and-schools/humanities/studying-humanities/additional-learning-requirements-ofa-humanities-students
