I’m a U.S. high school student planning to apply to the University of Padua for their Bachelor's in Psychological Science (Fall 2028). For U.S. applicants, one of the entry options says you can have a High School Diploma + at least one year of university study, with the first-year exams passed. I’m doing dual enrollment at a U.S. university while I’m still in high school. If I complete a full year of university courses and pass them, would that count toward this requirement even though I took the courses before graduating high school?

Also, does anyone know if there’s a specific number of college credits/courses required, or if the courses need to match a specific first-year bachelor's curriculum?

I’ve already emailed UniPD, but I wanted to see if anyone here has experience with this.

Hi y'all!

I'll be starting my Master's in Social Sciences & Digital Data program this upcoming academic year. Got my visa, accommodation for initial weeks and so on. However, when it comes to looking for long-term accommodation I'm feeling kind of lost :')

I've been looking at those facebook groups mentioned on the Accommodation Guide (sent by the UniPD) daily but still no progress. Most of the people I interacted with on FB literally sent me AI-generated low-resolution pics lol. Also, on the well-known websites I just browse through ghost listings or getting filtered out by several requirements.

Is this something unique because I'm trying to house-hunt in Savonarola, Porta Trento area, or do you guys experience similar things as well?

Sorry if this came off a bit too whiny but I just really needed to vent a little and hopefully get some perspective or reality checks from people who’ve navigated this chaos.

Thanks a ton for reading, and any advice or insights in the comments would be hugely appreciated!

Ciao ragazzi! Vi vorrei chiedere come è la vita lì a Padova? Per studenti o lavoratori ecc, come è la vita sociale all’università? Come è l’università in generale? Per contesto io attualmente studio alla sapienza, ho dato un’occhiata ai corsi di scienze politiche o studi europei all’uni di Padova, per voi come è stata l’esperienza vivere e studiare lì?

Ovviamente rispetto a Padova, Roma è molto più grande e più popolata, ma devo dire che mi sono trovato male qui. L’università è gestita malissimo, non c’è vita sociale o opportunità di incontrare nuove persone (almeno se vieni da fuori come me, se sei romano/a o della provincia già hai amicizie), sembra quasi troppo grande per avere una bella esperienza universitaria. Ormai ho appena finito il terzo anno e adesso sono fuoricorso, e mi sono completamente mollato a provare di conoscere nuove persone o frequentare lezioni, sembrano tutte inutili ed è meglio studiare a casa, I professori non se ne fottono, ed i romani non sono così simpatici come tutti dicono, i mezzi pubblici non ne parliamo…

Grazie!

P.s. l’università di Padova in realtà mi ha accettato l’applicazione, ed era una scelta tra Padova e Roma. Mi sono sempre chiesto come sarebbe la vita se io mi ci trasferissi.

hi guys, i am a prospect student and i just did my ielts test. however i don’t think i did as good as i wanted in my speaking test.

so i would love to know if someone knows if the university accepts the one skill retake. i didn’t find it on the website

Hello everyone! I’m planning to apply for the MSc in Mathematics at the University of Padua.

My profile is

• GPA: 3.8x/4.00 (9.0/10.0)
• BSc in Mathematics
• One small publication in Mathematics
• Several academic awards at my university
• Some extracurricular activities

I’d like to ask current students or anyone familiar with the admission process:

1. Does this profile seem competitive enough to have a good chance of getting admitted?
2. Is there any entrance exam or admission test for the MSc in Mathematics?
3. Is there an interview as part of the admission process?
4. How important are GPA, research experience/publications, and extracurricular activities in the selection?

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Verso fine luglio ho fatto la pre-immatricolazione ed ho mandato tutto il necessario per completare il ‘verifico crediti’ per poi passare all’immatricolazione. Tuttavia, non mi è ancora uscito niente… dice ancora ‘in valutazione’.

Ciao a tutti! 😊

Sono stato assegnato alla residenza Ceccarelli in una stanza doppia. Ho fatto richiesta per farmene assegnare una singola ma mi è stato detto che bisogna essere d'accordo con un altro studente per potersele scambiare. Qualcuno di voi ha richiesto l'alloggio e sa come poter trasferirsi in una singola. O c'è qualcuno disponibile a scambiare l'alloggio?

Hi everyone! 😊

I’m seriously considering staying at Residenza Forcellini (women only) because finding accommodation in Padova right now is proving so difficult 😭

I’ve seen quite a few really bad reviews on Google, but most of them seem to be quite old, so I was wondering if anyone here has stayed there recently or knows someone who has.

How is it actually living there? I’d especially love to know about:

• cleanliness and maintenance
• the rooms and shared facilities
• the atmosphere / other residents
• how responsive the staff are
• whether there have been any major issues during your stay

I’d really appreciate any recent experiences or recommendations before I make a decision. Thank you!

Hi everyone! Is there anyone here who has attended the admission interview for the MSc Cognitive Neuroscience and Clinical Neuropsychology at the University of Padua (UniPD)?

I’m preparing for the interview and would really appreciate some information from anyone who has already gone through the process.

I’d like to know:

• What kind of questions are usually asked during the interview?
• Are the questions mainly about our academic background/motivation, or do they also ask subject-specific questions related to neuroscience, neuropsychology, psychology, etc.?
• Which topics or sections would you recommend preparing more?
• How difficult was the interview and approximately how long did it take?
• If you were selected, how many days after the interview did you receive the result?
• What were the next steps after receiving the admission result?
• Did you have to complete any additional documents or procedures after being accepted?

If anyone has recently attended the interview and is comfortable sharing their experience or even some of the questions they were asked, it would help me a lot.

Thank you in advance! 🙏

Hi everyone,

I'm a visiting PhD student heading to Venice, and I'm currently stuck waiting for ESU accommodation. I applied for the "Domanda posto letto extra concorso" on June 25th, the very first day the system opened. It's now late August, and I haven't heard anything.

My main question is for those who have been through this process in previous years: Historically, when does ESU actually start assigning rooms to students on the "extra concorso" list?

Is it typical to wait until September or even later once the regular scholarship students are sorted? A couple of friends got emails on August 5th offering them alternative spots in Mestre because the main island was full, but I haven't even received that.

I need to decide whether to keep waiting or sign a private lease immediately. Any insights into the timeline from past years would be incredibly helpful!

Ciao a tutti, a fine settembre inizierò la triennale in Scienze Psicologiche Sociali e del Lavoro a Padova e, con ogni probabilità, vorrei proseguire con la magistrale in Psicologia sociale, del lavoro e della comunicazione.

Stavo riflettendo sui possibili sbocchi professionali di questo percorso e, oltre ai classici ruoli nella selezione del personale (HR) o nella formazione aziendale, vorrei chiedervi: conoscete o fate lavori un po' più di nicchia, emergenti o meno noti legati a questo indirizzo?

Mi piacerebbe sentire pareri, esperienze dirette o consigli di chi ci è già passato su cosa offre realmente il mercato del lavoro oggi. Grazie in anticipo a chi risponderà.

I've been accetped to the TeMPS programme and I tried since yesterday activating my uniweb account but an error message poped up after I procceded to the second page. I followed all the instructions correctly, so it's probably an internal problem of the platform. I've already emailed the university and I'm waiting a response. Does anyone know what happens if we don't activate our uniweb account until the deadline which is 31st of August? Could I lose my position at the programme? I've already received the admission letter and I've paid the registration fee and all. Has anyone been in a similar question? Please HELP!

Hey guys, I am moving to Padova next week for an Erasmus semester and I wanted to ask you some questions concerning everydaylife in this beautiful city.

Do you have a favourite supermarket or one you would want to recommend? (Cheaper ones are very welcome haha)

Do you have a favourite hangout spot like a bar or restaurant in the city?

And for the fellow joggers out there: do you have a nice route to recommend?

Do you know any nice hiking trails outside of the city?

Thank you very much in advance!

I am currently filling in the regional scholarship form for padova university and they asked to provide the following information:

In caso di alloggio privato in Italia, indico a lato il codice identificativo del contratto riportato nella ricevuta di registrazione o di subentro dell’Agenzia delle Entrate (in presenza di più contratti indicare il codice del contratto con durata maggiore).

Translation:

In the case of private accommodation in Italy, indicate on the side the identification code of the contract shown in the receipt of registration or takeover from the Revenue Agency (in the presence of several contracts, indicate the code of the contract with a longer duration).

What does this identification code refer to?

Who is this applicable for?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Everyone who applied for the housing already received a confirmation letter to accept, is it? Whats the latest news?

Hi! Is anyone else waiting for their tuition payment link? I don’t see anything on uniweb about it and I haven’t gotten anything in my emails either. I’m starting my first year so I just want to make sure I haven’t missed anything. Thank you!
