The University of Urbino Carlo Bo has 2 English-taught programmes on ApplyAZ for the next intake: both master's degrees. Each programme page sets out its entry test, intake and requirements. The table lists them by level, with the test each one uses.
| Programme | Level | Length | Entry test | Intake | Deadline |

| Master in Modern Languages for Cooperation and International Organizations | Master's | 2 years | No test; degree and syllabi review | 2027/28 | Call not yet out |
Source: our own programme listings, counted on 9 October 2026, and our full programme list covers every public university. Degrees with an English-taught curriculum are included. Urbino's page for non-EU applicants gives 27 September, with no year, for master's applications on apply.uniurb.it, a date that has passed for 2026/27 entry; each programme page adds its 2027/28 deadline when the call is published, and we track every call on your shortlist.
At the University of Urbino Carlo Bo, the yearly contribution depends on family income, measured by the ISEE Università, or an ISEE-U parificato for families abroad. An ISEE up to €30,000 falls in the no-tax area, and study can be tuition-free for eligible students with an ERDIS grant.
Tuition follows family income (ISEE). Families with income abroad can file an ISEE-U parificato, and ERDIS Marche scholarship winners are exempt from tuition.
The fee page does not list which degrees sit in each fee group, and without an ISEE-U the maximum applies (international fees page).
Source: Importo del contributo annuale 2026/2027, Rateizzazione della contribuzione 2026/27 and the Contribuzione agevolata 2026/27 page. Rupees use the FBIL reference rate of 21 September 2026, €1 = ₹109.90.
Students living abroad, or dependent on a family abroad, need an ISEE-U parificato for any fee reduction, issued by a CAF such as CAF CISL in Urbino; the page names no flat fee by country. Without a parificato the maximum applies, and filing after the enrolment deadline, up to 31 December 2026, adds a late penalty. Source: Urbino, tuition fees for international students.
Worked example: With a family ISEE-U parificato of €15,000, inside the €30,000 no-tax area, a first-year student from India would pay no yearly contribution in 2026/27. With no parificato at all the maximum applies. We prepare the ISEE-U parificato documents with you, file them with the university and prepare the ERDIS Marche scholarship application with you at the same time.
Non-EU students living abroad pre-enrol on Universitaly for the visa, and master's applicants also apply on apply.uniurb.it, where the teaching board assesses the degree and syllabi. Bachelor's applicants take an online Italian test unless they hold a B2 certificate. The university decides admission, and the consulate decides the visa.
| Step | Where | When |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Universitaly pre-enrolment | Universitaly | From your home country, for every degree, before the visa |
| 2. Master's application | apply.uniurb.it | All documents by 27 September (no year printed; passed for 2026/27 entry); the teaching board assesses the degree, exams and syllabi |
| 3. Italian test (bachelor's) | Urbino, online by video call | For bachelor's applicants without a CELI, CILS, Dante Alighieri or Roma Tre certificate at B2, or a CISIA ITA-L2 score of 49 or more in 2026 |
| 4. Study visa | Italian consulate in your country | By 30 November 2026 for 2026/27 and by 31 October 2027 for 2027/28; the consulate asks for at least €10,179.85 (₹11.2 lakh) a year for living costs |
| 5. Enrolment in Italy | Urbino's online enrolment (Esse3) and Students' Portal | After arrival and the residence permit request within 8 working days, with one PDF of documents and one of passport, visa and permit receipt; by 31 January for non-EU citizens living abroad (no year printed) |

Urbino's scholarships page for future students describes only the ERDIS Marche scholarship and its services (Borse di studio e agevolazioni). Its separate scholarships-and-opportunities page for international students could not be opened on 29 September 2026, so we check it for each student and prepare the ERDIS application with you.
Two national schemes are open to international students too: our guides to the MAECI scholarship and Invest Your Talent in Italy explain who can apply.
For the study visa, the consulate asks you to show at least €10,179.85 (₹11.2 lakh) a year for living costs in Urbino or any other Italian city. That is a floor, not a full budget: rent is the biggest cost, and a DSU residence place is much cheaper than a private room.
