Entry requirements
Detailed entry requirements
Teramo's Business Management bachelor asks for a secondary school diploma after at least 12 years of schooling and certified English at B2. There is no selective test: the CEnT-S checks your starting knowledge, and its result does not affect enrolment. Reviewed 8 October 2026. [1]
School-leaving requirement
You need a secondary school diploma, or equivalent, after at least 12 years of schooling. If your national system provides fewer than 12 years, you also need one of the following: [2]
- one or two years of university study, with a transcript
- a post-secondary non-university qualification
- a Foundation Course certificate from an Italian university
The university's application page does not set a minimum grade. [2]
What this means for your school results
As a guide, based on the rule above:
- Usually a fit: Indian Class 12 (CBSE, ISC or a state board), Pakistan HSSC or FSc, Bangladesh HSC, and Sri Lankan or British A levels, which usually complete at least 12 years of schooling.
- Check carefully: a diploma from a shorter or non-standard route, such as a polytechnic diploma taken after Class 10, where we count your years of schooling before you apply.
- Often short: Class 10, SSC or O levels on their own, which finish before 12 years and need one of the extra qualifications above.
English
English at CEFR B2, certified by the enrolment date. Accepted certificates include Cambridge English, City and Guilds (Pitman), Edexcel/Pearson, IELTS, TOEFL, ETS, TCL and LanguageCert. The page does not list minimum scores for each test. [2]
Native English speakers are exempt, and so are applicants whose qualifying diploma or degree was taught in English, with an English proficiency letter or medium-of-instruction document from the awarding institution. [2]
The CEnT-S test
There is no selective entrance test. The programme checks your starting knowledge with the CEnT-S (CISIA English Test, Sciences), and the result does not affect enrolment. [1]
- Format: 55 questions in 110 minutes, across biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics, and reasoning on texts and data. Each correct answer scores 1 point, each wrong answer minus 0.25.
- Thresholds: at least 3 correct answers out of 15 in mathematics and at least 2 out of 6 in reasoning on texts and data. Below a threshold, you get an additional learning requirement (OFA) in that area only.
- Where: at any CISIA partner university or in TOLC@HOME mode, from home in a virtual classroom, once per macro-period. A result not followed by enrolment stays valid for two years.
Students who enrol by 5 November without having taken or passed the test get all the OFA. These must be cleared by the third regular exam session of the first year, by passing an OFA recovery test or the maths and statistics modules of Mathematics for Business and Finance. [1]

About the programme
Business Management is a three-year bachelor's degree (laurea, class L-18, economics and business management) worth 180 ECTS and run by the Department of Political Science of the University of Teramo. It is taught entirely in English at Campus Aurelio Saliceti in Teramo, and access is open, so places are not capped. The aim is to train managers who pair business judgement with solid quantitative skills and can work in data-driven, international settings.
It suits school leavers who enjoy numbers as much as business ideas and want to work in private companies, consulting firms, the public sector or international organisations. It is one of four degrees the university teaches fully in English.
What you will study
The first year is shared by all students and lays the groundwork in accounting, economics, statistics and maths. From the second year you build up business strategy, data science, law and marketing. Units in the 2026/27 study plan include:
- Business economics and principles of accounting (12 ECTS) and Corporate reporting and accountability (12 ECTS)
- Economics I and II, including foundations of economics and the history of economic thought
- Fundamental and applied statistics, and Mathematics for business and finance
- Business information systems and Data science for economics and business (12 ECTS)
- Business strategy and management, and Marketing
- Public and EU economic law, EU private law for business, and Economic policy
- An AI for business laboratory, a language lab, two optional units and a final thesis
How the programme is taught
Teaching is in person in Teramo. The third year adds short practical labs on AI for business and languages, and the degree closes with a final thesis worth 6 ECTS. Applicants with certified prior learning or relevant work experience can apply for credit recognition, which the course assesses from their documents.
Career paths
The department prepares graduates for roles in industry, commerce, services, public bodies and consulting, built around five professional profiles:
- Business and entrepreneurship specialist, supporting business plans, operations and start-ups
- Marketing and business strategy specialist
- Administration and accounting specialist
- Business data analyst
- International trade specialist, handling import and export operations
Graduates can continue to a master's in economics or business. In Italy, L-18 graduates who complete the required traineeship can also sit the state exam to register as an accounting expert (esperto contabile).
Fees and scholarships
Teramo does not use an Italian ISEE for students whose family income and assets are all abroad. Instead, its international fees page sets a flat yearly contribution by World Bank group: €50 for low-income countries, €300 for middle-income countries (a group that includes countries like India) and €600 for high-income countries, plus €140 regional tax and €16 stamp duty. [3] ADSU Teramo offers income-based grants, so this degree can be tuition-free for eligible students.
How to apply from outside the EU
We can first request a remote preliminary evaluation, which has no deadline, using your passport, school diploma, transcript and an English or medium-of-instruction certificate. The application itself is an online form for the programme, and the International Welcome Service checks your documents and issues an acceptance, conditional acceptance or non-acceptance letter. Non-EU applicants living abroad then submit the Universitaly pre-enrolment and, once the University of Teramo validates it, apply for a type D study visa at the Italian embassy or consulate. [2]
For 2026/27, Universitaly pre-enrolment and visa requests run from April to 30 November 2026, and enrolment on the UniTE online secretariat from 1 July to 5 November 2026, with late enrolment possible for a late fee. The 2027/28 dates are not out yet. [2]
