Fully funded scholarship from University of Milan in Italy. Check the deadline and eligibility on the official page before applying.

A scholarship offered by University of Milan in Italy.

The organiser describes this as fully funded. On this site that means tuition and accommodation are recorded as covered; flights are left as not stated until we have confirmed them, because they vary between programmes that use the same phrase. This is aimed at applicants at Master's level.

Before you apply

Open the official page and confirm three things: that the deadline still stands, that you meet the eligibility criteria as they are written there, and what documents you will need. Applications fail more often on a missing document than on a weak candidate.

Every detail here is checked against the organisation's own page, and that page is the authority: deadlines move, eligibility is rewritten, and programmes are withdrawn without announcement. Confirm before you apply.

How to apply

The DSU is a regional right-to-study award funded by the Lombardy Region, not a university prize, and it is assessed on household income as well as academic merit. You need an offer of admission to an eligible University of Milan programme first.

Applications are submitted through the university's own student portal at studente.unimi.it. Read the income documentation requirements early: applicants outside the EU usually need consular-certified income statements, and assembling those is the step that catches people out.

What you will need

  • Admission to a University of Milan degree programme
  • Household income documentation (ISEE or equivalent for non-EU applicants)
  • Passport
  • Academic transcripts

Eligibility notes

Open to international students from all countries. Eligibility is means-tested against household income as well as academic merit.

Details can change without notice. Confirm everything on the organisation's own page before you apply — see our disclaimer. Spotted something out of date? Tell us.
