Program Changes for Admitted Students
Request to Change Program
Bocconi students admitted in the I Round can request to change their Master of Science program of admission by writing to: graduate.admissions@unibocconi.it
by 6 December 2023 (at 12:00 — noon), clearly specifying which alternative (one option) they would like to access:
- Towards programs expressed as alternatives compared to the program of admission, or
- Towards programs not expressed during the selection process
Please note that requests to change to Special Programs such as CEMS/ESSEC/CHINA will not be evaluated, if these programs were not expressed during the selection process: these programs require extra evaluation documentation that cannot be submitted after the admission results.
Results of Program Change Request
The outcome of the request will be evaluated based on the ranking score and the spots available. The results will be communicated through the My Application portal by 13 December 2023 (in time to confirm enrollment) and may be:
- Positive: the change will be made automatically and students will see a specific notification on MyApplication portal. They can confirm their place by completing the enrollment for the new program of admission by the deadline (14 December 2023);
Important: in this case you can't request to return to the original program of admission, i.e., if a program change request is finalized, it is considered definitive and will also be processed in the system.
- Negative: the change cannot be made due to the ranking score and the spots available. A notification will be provided in the My Application portal. The student may then decide whether to enroll in the initial program of admission.
Request to Change Program — Students enrolled in the I Round
Students enrolled in the I round may request a program change towards programs expressed as alternatives to the program of enrollment or towards programs that were not chosen during the selection process (and only if a program change was not already requested after admission).
Please note that requests to change to Special Programs such as CEMS/ESSEC/CHINA will not be evaluated, if these programs were not expressed during the selection process: these programs require extra evaluation documentation that cannot be submitted after the admission results.
These requests must be sent by email (graduate.admissions@unibocconi.it) by 30 June 2024, clearly specifying which Master of Science course the student would like to access (multiple program requests will NOT be evaluated).
Results of Program Change Request
The Admissions Office will collect all requests received and evaluate the feasibility of changes based on the ranking score and spots available (also taking into consideration spots available after admitted students fail to enroll and the total number of requests). Feedback will be given to all students who submitted applications by 8 July 2024.
Results of the request may be:
- Positive: the change will be made automatically and students will see a specific notification in the My Application portal. Students can print the updated enrollment application again with the new program of enrollment and submit it in the Enrollment portal in the dedicated section ("Additional Documents”).
- Negative: the change cannot be made due to the ranking score and the spots available. A notification will be provided in the My Application portal. The student will therefore remain enrolled in the initial course of admission.
