Second-cycle degree courses | Università degli studi di Parma

Università degli Studi di Parma

The access mode and the deadlines for the programme you're interested in will be available, starting April 16th, 2026, in the course's page for prospective students 26-27.

Here you will find step-by-step instructions for the admission procedure of your degree course or, in the case of a programme with limited seats, you will find a direct link to the admission calls.

Don't forget that all these inscription procedures must be preceded by registration to the online secretariat - Esse3.

If you plan to graduate after the enrolment period has expired, if your second-cycle degree course provides for it, you can make the pre-enrolment.

Registration

Registration to the University Online Registry Service (ESSE3) is the necessary step to access all other online procedures.

Free access with requirements verification

If you would like to enrol on an open-access second-cycle degree course, you must first ensure that you meet the entry requirements.

Nationally-scheduled access courses

Enrolment in courses with nationally-scheduled access is subject to passing an entrance test administered at ministerial level.

Access at the local level (test/TOLC, evaluation of qualifications, interview)

Courses that provide this type of type of access have a limited number of places that are assigned through an entrance test or other method managed independently by the University.

Pre-enrollment in a master's degree course

If you are enrolled in a bachelor's degree program in A.Y. 2022/23 and intend to graduate within that academic year and enroll in a master's degree program, you must fill out the pre-enrollment application online

Part-time students

Part-time enrolment halves the number of course credits to be obtained each year and the amount of fees, but doubles the duration of the course (from 3 to 6 or from 2 to 4 years).

Double inscription

From the academic year 2022/23, it is possible to enroll simultaneously in two higher education courses within the same or another university.

Training for civil servants (PA 110 cum laude)

The project aims to promote, encourage and encourage the enrollment of personnel serving in public administrations on University courses.
