International opportunities for students

The admission to the GLaM is restricted to 65 places: 15 places are reserved for Non-EU students permanently residing abroad.

If you have double citizenship, i.e. one from a non-EU country and one from one of the 27 countries of the European Union, the latter prevails and you should apply as an EU citizen.

Minimum Requirements 

Following minimum requirements must be fulfilled by GLaM applicants:

  • A Bachelor's or higher degree from an internationally recognized institution at university level in legal studies (Italian L-14 bachelor's degree classification), or to have gained a minimum of 27 ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System) in the following scientific disciplinary sectors: IUS/01-02-04-05-07-08-09-10-13-14-17-18-19-20-21. For candidates with academic qualifications obtained abroad, the possession of curricular requirements will be verified with reference to the specific contents of the educational activities that led to the attainment of the qualification itself.
  • Good knowledge of the English language (min. B2 level of the European Common Framework), as defined by the University Language Center standards
