4. Exams and student career related activities. Those who use the student career interruption must not take exams in the academic year relating to the request, under penalty of having them cancelled, nor may they carry out any student career activities.

The request must be sent by email, from your institutional email address, using the Application/Request ("Domanda/Istanza") form, published on the Student Forms page, Downloads section.
