Please note: an automatic renewal of the award for the following academic year is NOT foreseen. Nevertheless, students who have been awarded for ay 2021-2022 may be taken into consideration for the following year as well.

All details concerning the "Excellence Awards" a.y. 2022-23 are published on the dedicated webpage.

The renewal of the benefit for the academic year 2022-2023 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 2022-2023.

For this reason, students who in the academic year 2022-2023 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 2022-2023 and will not be able to receive a refund of the first installment paid (advance payment) for 2022-2023 until the reserve is lifted.
