  • Accepted. In this case you will see the green text "Complete (Accepted by commission)". You can also download a receipt indicating that you have passed the pre-selection and are eligible to enroll in the course. This receipt replaces the letter of acceptance no longer requested by the Embassy/Consulate;
  • Conditionally accepted (yellow sentence). You lack some curricular requirements that must be met before enrollment (e.g. you must take additional exams or an entrance test if the course has restricted access). Also in this case, you will be able to download a receipt stating your acceptance; 
  • Rejected (red sentence). You do not have the course entry requirements. Given the high number of applications, no specific reasons for rejection will be provided. Please do not contact the Office, as you will not receive any reply.

NEXT STEP AFTER PRE-SELECTION (if successful): UNIVERSITALY
If your application has been accepted, or conditionally accepted, you can proceed to the pre-registration phase on the Universitaly website. Universitaly is used to submit the visa application procedure. The University will validate the application and send it to the Embassy/Consulate. The Universitaly portal is external to UniGe and you will have to upload all your documents again. If you are accepted for two courses, you will have to make a choice. At Universitaly you can apply for only one course of study. For more details on the documents to be uploaded, please see the receipt obtained during the pre-selection phase or our web page on pre-enrolment and enrolment of non-EU students (visa applicants) with a foreign qualification 

After your application has been approved on Universitaly.it, you can move on to the pre-enrollment phase on Online services of UniGe. The opening of pre-enrollment usually takes place in April each year. The chosen course of studies must be the same as the one in the application submitted on Universitaly.it
