Studying in Italy as an international student

Public university fees are means-tested on family income (the ISEE assessment), so a low-income international student can pay very little. These are country-level figures for a typical bachelor's at a public university (2025–26 academic year) — not a quote for this university, which sets its own fees.

Typical tuition, non-national
$200–$4,500
per year, approx. USD
Typical living costs
$9,000–$14,000
per year, approx. USD
Who pays less
Assessment is income-based rather than nationality-based — internationals can submit an equivalent declaration.
Funding routes
Regional DSU grants often cover fees plus a maintenance stipend and housing.
