Calculation of contributions

University tuition and fee amounts vary according to:

  • merit: only CFUs accrued in the twelve months prior to August 10 are considered. Merit requires having accrued 5 CFUs for inscription in year 2; 12 CFUs for years after year 2. New students are not required to have merit in their first year of inscription;
     
  • enrollment seniority: years of inscription at the University of Parma are counted (course transitions do not reset seniority; dropping out, on the other hand, resets them);
     
  • course subject area: to find out which disciplinary area your course belongs to, please consult Annex 3 on this page;
     
  • economic asset status: calculated on the basis of ISEE. The ISEE must be reported from June 23 to 5 p.m. on November 4, 2026through online procedure on site of ER.GO, the Regional Agency for Higher Education. For more details on ISEE submission and necessary documentation visit related page.

With the exception of economic data, all others are collected ex officio.

Merit, seniority of inscription, disciplinary area and proportional to ISEE indicator determine the all-inclusive university fee, i.e. the second and third instalments. If you are a part-time student or student, the personalized university contribution will correspond to half of that for full-time enrolled and enrolled students.

The first instalment (or tuition fee), on the other hand, is the same for all and that corresponds to 156 euros (140 euros of regional tax and 16 euros of virtual stamp duty).

For the 2026-27 academic year, the annual inscription amount for our degree courses thus includes: the regional tuition fee (140 euros), the virtual stamp ( 16 euros) and the all-inclusive university fee, calculated in a personalized manner based on the requirements of merit, seniority of inscription, disciplinary area and proportional to the ISEE indicator (Equivalent Economic Situation Indicator).

You can consult the calculation formula of the personalized university contribution and the table of minimum and maximum amounts in the Allegato 3.

If your ISEE exceeds 70,000 euros or if you fail to submit your ISEE data by November 4, 5 p.m., you will be required to pay the absolute maximum contribution provided for your disciplinary area and your merit and seniority status.
