1.  Costs based on the contribution group

Sapienza divides second level two-year degree programmes, single-cycle master's degrees, and unified master's degrees into two fee groups. The two fee groups pay the single all-inclusive fee at the standard rate specified in the table. Inter-faculty programmes are considered to be part of the lead faculty (the reference faculty for administrative purposes). For degree programmes that do not require fixed enrolment fees, it is possible to pay a reduced amount based on your ISEE for the right to university education (see Art. 41).

A. First contribution bracket - Programs in the Faculties of:

Economics; Law; Arts and Philosophy; Political Science, Sociology, Communication.

- Total €2,821

- First instalment €846

- Second instalment €987

- Third instalment €988

A. Second contribution bracket - Programs in the Faculties of:

Architecture; Pharmacy and Medicine; Civil and Industrial Engineering; Information Engineering, Computer Science and Statistics; Medicine and Psychology; Medicine and Dentistry; Mathematical, Physical and Natural Sciences.

- Total €2,924

- First instalment €877

- Second instalment €1,023

- Third instalment €1,024

2.   Costs if you file income tax returns in foreign countries

If you earn income in foreign countries and therefore cannot submit the ISEE declaration for the right to university education as it concerns income earned in Italy, you pay a fixed contribution of a different amount depending on the country of origin, as illustrated below (Board of Directors' resolution of 30 May 2023). For income not reported in Italy, it is therefore not possible to submit the “ISEE parificato”.

Please note that in order to obtain student visa and, subsequently, a residence permit, if you are not an Italian or European Union citizen, you must demonstrate that you have sufficient financial means to support yourself during your stay (in accordance with the Circular of the National Social Security Institute (INPS) No. 8 of 17 January 2017).

3.     Costs and deadlines for programmes provided as distance learning, inter-university programmes with partner universities or in agreements with consortia

Sapienza provides some bachelor's degree programmes and second level degree programmes in a blended format, mainly distance learning or entirely distance learning, through specific agreements with online universities.

A. The fees to be paid for these programmes depend on the administrative location of the university:

- if, in addition to the inter-university distance learning programme with administrative headquarters at Sapienza, there is also a programme of the same bachelor's degree class provided in traditional mode, the amount of the single fee for the distance learning programme, classified as a service provided at the student's request for individual needs, is given by a fixed fee established in a specific agreement between the two universities;

- if, in addition to the inter-university distance learning programme with administrative headquarters at Sapienza, no programme of the same degree class is scheduled to be provided in traditional mode, the amount of the fees is equal to that for programmes provided in traditional mode;

- if the inter-university distance learning programme is administratively based at the online university, the amount of the single contribution is established by the latter.

B. If you are enrolled in a distance learning programme or at the Uninettuno consortium, you will have to pay the following each year:

- a fixed fee divided into two instalments, depending on the type of programme (see table below):

- the regional tax (€140);

- stamp duty (€16).

C. You can pay the enrolment fee:

- in a single instalment: by 6 November 2025;

- in two instalments: in this case, the first instalment is due on 6 November 2025 and the second on 26 March 2026.

Late payments will incur a fine of €65, which will double if the delay exceeds 60 consecutive calendar days.
