Beds reserved on income and merit, 2026/2027
Applications from 31 October 2026 to 30 November 2026
15 of the 50 beds are allocated through a ranking based on income and merit, as Ministerial Decree 481/2024 requires for PNRR-funded residences. For 2026/2027 there is no agreement with ER.GO, the regional right-to-study agency, so the Ministry of University and Research has authorised File S.r.l. to allocate these beds directly, using ER.GO’s requirements and rates.

After the allocation
- The residence offers a place in a single or double room depending on availability, taking your preference into account.
- Before signing the contract you pay the first month and a deposit of one month’s rent.
- Each following month is paid by the 25th of the month before.
- Signing the contract means accepting the residence rules.
- Statements are checked, including with the Ministry, the university and the Guardia di Finanza: false statements mean losing the place.
Students with disabilities
The residence has 3 adapted single rooms for students with disabilities. Each one opens directly onto an accessible bathroom, without going through shared areas: two neighbouring rooms share the same bathroom.
