Bachelor in Computer Engineering at University of Cassino and Southern Lazio

Detailed entry requirements

Cassino’s English Computer Engineering bachelor requires a recognised secondary school qualification, English B2 and an initial scientific-preparation assessment. Applicants without an Italian school diploma must complete the programme’s GOMP pre-admission before visa/final enrolment steps. The current programme page says 2027/28 admission will open in 2027; it does not publish the next exact dates. [1, 2]

School qualification and scientific readiness

The course accepts a five-year Italian secondary school diploma or a suitable recognised equivalent international qualification. Foreign admission remains subject to qualification validity and the ministerial procedures for international entry. The preliminary assessment considers basic scientific preparation, with mathematics and logic identified as foundations of the engineering curriculum. No universal school GPA cutoff or numerical mathematics pass score is specified on the current course page. [1]

This bachelor is distinct from Industrial Engineering Technology and its separate test page. Its current official enrolment page does not name a mandatory TOLC-I format, cutoff or test exemption. We follow the programme’s own preliminary assessment instructions; a test rule published for another degree does not apply to Computer Engineering. Full-time study normally lasts three years; the course describes a six-year part-time route. [1]

English B2: compulsory programme requirement

CEFR B2 English is mandatory because the course is entirely English-taught. The non-Italian-diploma application checklist requires an English proficiency certificate. The page does not provide a universal IELTS/TOEFL minimum, accepted-certificate age or a general MOI/native waiver. We confirm those details under the programme’s specific assessment rather than borrowing them from another Cassino degree. [1]

The language requirement and scientific/qualification assessment are separate. Uploading an English certificate does not establish the school award’s recognition, and favourable scientific assessment does not itself satisfy B2. The overseas route proceeds only after the programme committee’s pre-admission decision. [1]

GOMP pre-admission: mandatory documents

For applicants without an Italian high-school diploma, the application goes through GOMP under Pre-admission International Students. The required file contains the high-school transcript, CV, motivation letter, English proficiency certificate and current passport/identity document. After the uploads, the application is completed online. The assessment outcome is communicated by email. Missing uploads or an incomplete application cannot be treated as a confirmed admission. [1, 2]

Holders of an Italian school diploma go to the next registration stage and undergo preliminary preparation assessment later during enrolment. Early foreign application is recommended to allow time for qualification and visa paperwork; this recommendation does not establish an open call. The central page’s generic February to June period is expressly subject to each programme’s actual deadline. [1, 2]

Universitaly only where a study visa is needed

After pre-admission, applicants who need a study visa submit the correct academic year’s Universitaly pre-enrolment. Applicants who do not need a visa proceed to the final enrolment stage under the university’s instructions. We submit the correct academic year, not an old one that still appears in the portal. The programme says the next-year Universitaly process usually becomes available around the end of March, and we confirm the actual year’s opening. [1]

When the university validates and forwards Universitaly to the embassy, the central instructions require printing and signing the summary PDF, the eligibility-for-enrolment document, for the visa application. This is separate from the email communicating the academic pre-admission outcome. The consulate decides the visa; university validation does not grant one, and a visa does not by itself secure final registration. [2]

Declaration of Value or the two CIMEA statements

Cassino requires a Declaration of Value for the foreign qualification or both CIMEA Statement of Comparability and Statement of Verification in its place. A single generic “CIMEA statement” does not necessarily satisfy both checks. We follow the awarding-country authenticity and translation requirements communicated for the application and final file. [2]

On arrival, non-EU students show the original passport with study visa/arrival stamp or valid residence permit and the prescribed qualification-verification document to International Welcome Service. EU students show passport/ID and original academic records. After the international-student nulla osta appears in GOMP, registration is completed with International Student Administration, followed by the departmental study-plan steps. [2]

Current intake status and next dates

The course-specific page says admission for 2027/28 will open in 2027. The central welcome page still has a general 2026/27 “pre-admissions open” heading, but expressly defers to each programme’s own dates. The programme notice is the relevant current status; it does not establish a new October 2026 application round. No exact 2027/28 opening, closing date, quota or test date is stated in the reviewed course page. [1, 2]

School transcript, CV, motivation letter, English certificate and valid passport/ID, then the application is completed in GOMP. [1]

Does one CIMEA statement replace the DOV?

The central instructions require Comparability plus Verification as the alternative to the Declaration of Value. [2]

Is 2027/28 admission open?

The current programme page says it will open in 2027. Exact next-intake dates are not yet stated. [1]

Can someone handle my whole application to Computer Engineering at Cassino?

Yes. ApplyAZ, an Italy-based consultancy that works only with public universities, checks your school results against Cassino's rules for this programme, handles the application and Universitaly pre-enrolment, helps you file the DiSCo Lazio scholarship application at the right time and in the right format, and prepares your visa file, for eligible students. Start by checking your eligibility.

I'm applying from India. What is the route into Computer Engineering?

Indian applicants need a recognised secondary school qualification that is a suitable equivalent of the Italian five-year diploma, and we check how your Class 12 results fit [1]. English B2 is compulsory, with a proficiency certificate in the file [1]. The steps are GOMP pre-admission with your transcript, CV, motivation letter, English certificate, and passport, then Universitaly pre-enrolment [1, 2]. Indian students apply for the type D study visa at the Italian embassy or consulate that covers their state, such as New Delhi, Mumbai or Bengaluru.

Is the route different from Pakistan, Bangladesh or Sri Lanka?

No. The academic rules for Computer Engineering are the same whatever your nationality. Applicants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka follow the same steps as India: GOMP pre-admission, the programme committee's decision and Universitaly pre-enrolment, then a type D study visa from the Italian mission for their country of residence. Read our guide for students in Dhaka.

I live in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman or Bahrain. Where do I apply for the visa?

At the Italian embassy or consulate responsible for the country where you legally live, after Universitaly pre-enrolment. The academic rules for Computer Engineering are the same whatever your nationality, and Gulf residents follow the same steps: GOMP pre-admission, the programme committee's decision and Universitaly pre-enrolment.

I studied or live in London, New York, Toronto, Vancouver, Singapore or Kuala Lumpur. What is the route?

The academic rules for Computer Engineering are the same whatever your nationality, and your school results are assessed like any other foreign qualification. Non-EU applicants who live abroad follow the same route: GOMP pre-admission, the programme committee's decision and Universitaly pre-enrolment, then a type D study visa from the Italian mission for where they live.
