Bocconi Undergraduate Merit Awards

Bocconi University is
committed to making our superior level of higher education available to
outstanding students. Awards provide recipients with valuable financial
support, ensuring students can enjoy the benefits of a top-quality academic
experience regardless of their financial situation. Merit Awards will be
made available to first-year Undergraduate applicants for the 2020-2021
academic year based on their academic standing.

International students
applying for admission during the Early, Winter or Spring Sessions will be
taken into consideration for merit-based financial aid.

The Merit Award includes
a full tuition waiver, worth up to approximately € 12,000 per year.

A limited number of students may also be assigned free accommodation in one of
the Bocconi Residence Halls. 

The provisions below
constitute official publication of the regulations of the “Bocconi
Undergraduate Merit Award” benefit for assignees in the a.y. 2020-2021.

Profiles

Academic profiles considered to be amongst the top applicants will be
considered for merit-based financial aid based on the admissions application
submitted to Bocconi University. A separate application is not
required. The evaluation will primarily be based on the candidate’s
academic achievement. In addition to academic achievement, the complete dossier
provided to the Admissions Office will be evaluated. The selection of awardees
will be carried out by a Committee, nominated by the Rector, including the Dean
of the Undergraduate School and the Dean for International Affairs, whose
decisions about numbers, amounts and recipients are final and cannot be
appealed.

Awarding

The assignment of an award will be communicated to awarded
students together with admission results and with a
separate and more detailed email by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office.

Acceptance

Awarded students will need to follow the procedure indicated in the email
they will receive by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office soon after the
publication of admission results and therefore complete the online
scholarship acceptance procedure by the enrollment deadline.

The scholarship acceptance procedure can be accessed only after completing
the enrollment procedure.

Renewal

The Merit Award will be
automatically renewed for the entire legal duration of the regular course of
study if the following requirements are met:

- 
enrollment requirements: completion of the enrollment in each academic
year within the deadlines foreseen by Academic Services;

- merit requirements:

• the second year (AY 2021-2022)
  provided the awardee earns at least 49 credits as of 10 August 2021

• the third year (AY 2022-2023) provided the awardee earns at least
  95 credits as of 10 August 2022.

The renewal of the benefit for the academic year 2021-2022 will be included
in the student's financial situation, which can be viewed at the Punto Blu
(> administrative area> Fees, Funding and Housing) ONLY after
verification by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office of the regular enrollment
for the academic year 2021-2022. For this reason, students who in the academic
year 2021-2022 will be "registered with reserve" (or have
enrollment subject to reserve) will not be able to view in the system the
confirmation of the benefit for the academic year 2021-2022 and will not
be able to receive a refund of the first installment paid (advance payment) for
2021-2022 until the reserve is lifted.

The provisions above constitute official publication of the regulations concerning
the renewal of the “Bocconi Undergraduate Merit Award” benefit for assignees in
the a.y. 2020-2021.

Revocation

The award will be revoked in
the following situations:

• Award of an equal or larger benefit in Bocconi for the following
  academic years; it is specified in this regard that in case the student
  should subsequently lose the major benefit, the Bocconi Undergraduate
  Merit Award cannot be reinstated;

• Verifications carried out by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office
  reveal false declarations made by the student for the
  assignment of the award: the revocation shall take effect starting from the
  moment in which the illicit behavior took place and shall entail the full
  payment of due tuition and fees - and housing fees and expulsion from the residence hall, if
  the merit award included free accommodation - starting from the academic year
  in which the student benefited from the waiver following false declarations
  (articles 71 and 75 of Italian D.P.R. 445/2000);

• Disciplinary sanctions imposed
  by Bocconi University: disciplinary sanctions imposed by Bocconi University
  will result in a revocation of the benefit starting from the day the
  disciplinary sanction is imposed. Students whose award is revoked will be
  required to pay any tuition and fees - and expulsion from the residence hall, if the merit award
  included free accommodation - installments that may still be due at the date of
  the revocation, according to the official deadlines defined by the Fees,
  Funding and Housing Office.

The provisions above constitute official publication of the regulations
concerning the revocation of the “Bocconi Undergraduate Merit Award” benefit
for assignees in the a.y. 2020-2021.
