Women Awards

The provisions
below constitute official publication of the regulations a.y. 2022-2023 of the
“Women Awards” benefit for female students enrolled in the first year of the
Msc Finance in the a.y. 2022-2023.

Bocconi University
strives to advocate for an inclusive, diverse, and accepting community also
from the point of view of the percentage of female students.

For this
reason, starting from AY 2021-2022, Bocconi University is
introducing a special type of Bocconi Graduate Merit Award. These are
called "Women Awards", designed to award exceptional
and talented female students who are interested in pursuing their
studies in the economic and financial field, traditionally led by men.

“Women Awards” aim
to redistribute diversity within the Bocconi student body, recognizing academic
achievement and the potential of female students interested in continuing their
higher education in the area of economics and finance.

To assign Women
Awards, consisting of a full tuition waiver, the Scholarship
Committee will assess the best profiles in terms of academic career and
work/study experiences abroad of female students of any citizenship who
have applied for admission to the Msc Finance in Bocconi for
AY 2022-2023.

This award will be
renewable for the second year of the MSc (AY 2023-2024), provided the same
merit requirements foreseen for the renewal of the Bocconi Graduate Merit Award
are met (50 credits as of 10 August 2023).

The outcome of the
Committee evaluation will be communicated to student awardees together with
admissions results. Those who wish to enroll with the award will first need to
complete the enrollment procedure and then follow the instructions provided via
email by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office to formally accept the award.

The same
regulations about renewal and revocation that are foreseen for Bocconi
Graduate Merit Awards apply also to Women Awards.

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 benefit assigned 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.

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.
