Dear Serra we thank you all for helping us out and providing all this info for free. You’re a saint. We appreciate your work
🥲 thank you, I’m glad it’s helpful
Hey Sara does the state licensing exam occurs in english??
There’s no longer state licensing exam. The post graduation exams are all in Italian 🙂
HEY SERRA i am a no eu residing abroad . can i still pre enroll in any of the public universities for medicine and surgery or not becuz someone told me that admissions are closed. plz guide me thankyou
Hello, yes, though some unis have closed their pre-enrolments, most are still open!
hey san can tell which university pre enrolment is still open.
Hi 🙂 for a lot of them it is still open, but to be sure you should find the call to applicants of your top choice universities!
Dear Serra, could you inform me if the pre-enrollment dates for the IMAT exam was already published?
Universitaly has opened the pre-enrollment processed, but there aren’t any official pubblications about it.
Dear Serra,
When I started watching your videos, my son was just in the 10th grade. This year, he will be taking the IMAT for Sapienza. I hope he will be among the top 13 and follow in his sister’s footsteps.
Thanks for your dedicated effort.
Best regards.
Weren’t there like 25 non eu seats in Milan? If its 15 now , the competition would be very tough. I was planning on choosing Milan .But now I’m not sure anymore.
True, now that there are only 15 seats it is even more competitive ;(
Hello. I have a question.
The number of seats for non-EU students was announced on May 26th. I understand that pre-enrollment takes place many months before this. So when students choose their first choice university in pre-enrollment, are they choosing without knowing how many seats are available?
thank you.
Yes, technically true. But even if the available seats could change from year to year, we can see the previous trends to have an idea before we pre-enroll 🙂
Ma’am I will be receiving my Passport around 15 July 2024, Will I be able to Apply for Pre Enrollment for Medicine and Surgery
Yes, you should be able to apply 🙂
Hi serra,glad to have found this article… it’s really helpful but please the seats for years subsequent to year 1 also included in the above posting? Secondly is IMAT 2024 still going to be written in October?
The seats are the exact same from 1st year onwards! The exam for 2024 is on the 17th of September.
As non EU should we also take in consideration the number of seats or just the cutoff score
cutoff scores are not predictable, so you should take the number of seats into consideration as personal risk assessment 🙂
Bilgiler için teşekkürler.
Danışmanlık için nereyi önerirsiniz..
we don’t recommend any consultants at the moment
Hello I am from Pakistan and really interested in studying in medicine and surgery at university of Rome la sapianza but don’t i would be able to make it or not for this year as i am quite late now. If there is any chance then please let me know and where should i register first at universitaly portal or university portal directly.
There’s definitely still plenty of time if you are an efficient studier, and put in the hard work. You just need to pre-enroll on Universitaly, not on the university website!
Hi Serra,
Thanks for this amazing info and its certainly a big help.
Best Wishes!
Pradeep
Thank you on behalf of AcadIMAT! 🙂
thank you for your help
Serra, i had been accepted in the pre-enrollment of the university, but now i don´t know where to apply for the IMAT. Could you help me please?
Registrations for the IMAT have not yet opened. It will eventually be on universitaly!
When will the exam registration open?
It has not yet been announced; we’re going to send out an email with our newsletter and put if on instagram when it is!
Pingback: Dentistry at Sapienza University: Everything to Know
hi sierra i had pre enrolled for milan statle and i only recieved a confirmation when i registerd, i still havent recieved any letter from the university acceoting the pre enrollment. can you tell me how long should i wait and is there then a way that i can pre enroll to another university as a non EU student?
Some universities don’t send an acceptance email for example sapienza. It’s possible Milan doesn’t either.
18 denstistry seats for non-eu students!!!! Isn’t it too few?
Unfortunately there are only 2 universities that do dentistry in english, so the spots are a lot more limited.
Do students from US Schools need TOEFL?
Since your studies were conducted in English, your diploma is considered proof of your English proficiency. Moreover, most unis don’t even request an English language certificate for medicine in English course applicants. However, as always, it is best to ask the unis for the most up-to-date information!
Hey Serra.
Thank you for this website it really helped me. I know I’m a little late, but can i still pre enroll for the IMAT :,)
You can still pre-enroll for certain universities, yes!
How long does pre enrollment last for public uni like padova,bologna,etc? Asking for 2025 based on recent trends!
Hello, pre-enrollment can last 2 to 3 months, but it also widely varies for each university.
Hye Serra!
Can you predict the estimated cut off for LV as in 2024?
Hello, we don’t do predictions for cutoffs!

Are you considered an EU student if you have EU citizenship and passports but did your highschool diploma abroad? Furthermore, what if you have a bachelor in physiotherapy (English) but do not meet the entry requirements for biology and chemistry with your high school diploma will they still let you study medicine (if you manage to score well on the IMAT)
Hello, yes, you are considered an EU student. You are set if you have a valid high school diploma. There are no course entry requirements, so it does not matter if you have taken biology or chemistry.
