Course recipients - check if you can attend these courses

IMPORTANT:
Bilateral Agreements or Erasmus+ students in mobility at the University of Padova can’t attend the intensive Italian courses.
These students will have to enrol in the Italian biannual courses in order to obtain 3 ECTS credits, if included in their agreements.
You can take only one Italian language course at the Language Center, regardless of the course level, duration, type and period (intensive/biannual, in person/online).
Attendance is free of charge.
If you have already attended an Italian course at the CLA, even partially (8 hours or more), your enrollment will be blocked and you will not be able to attend another course.
You can take up to three free courses only if you are:
– a student that have to pass Italian A2 TAL within the study plan;
– a political refugee;
– a student of Medicine and Surgery;
– a student of Scuola Galileiana;
– a student of Languages, Literature and Cultural Mediation.
