Step by step - Scholarship, accommodation and canteen services

You can take part in the call for applications only if you meet the economic and career requirements.

The economic requirement is fulfilled if the University-ISEE and the ISPE respect the following conditions.

• University ISEE not exceeding € 26.500,00
• ISPEnot exceeding € 57.500,00

 Remember that the release of the University-ISEE is not immediate. Therefore, it is best to request it in time to a CAAF. In no case the University is responsible for the failure in transmission of data contained in the DSU and/or in processing of the University ISEE for the request for benefits for the academic year 2024/2025.

The ISEE to be requested must include the words "si applica alle prestazioni agevolate per il diritto allo studio universitario in favore di – codice fiscale studente". Ordinary ISEE certificates are not useful for the purpose of participating in the call for applications.

The career requirement is fulfilled if you are enrolled for the first time in a university bachelor/master/single cycle master degree.

The university bachelor degree does not allow you to require scholarship for the first year of a single cycle master's degree course.

Upon the enrolment, if you meet the requirements you can apply for scholarship on the Online Services Portal of the Residential Centre (https://soscr.unical.it) or by the Unical Life app by 12 p.m. of the following deadlines.

For the purposes of regularizing the application, it is important to communicate the details of your identification document (identity card, driving licence, passport).

If you are a student of the Conservatory you will be able to access the Online Services Portal of the Residential Centre or the Unical Life app only by SPID.

Unical Life, available in all stores, is the official app of the University of Calabria for the benefits and services provided by the Residential Centre. For more info click here.

Confirmation of the submission of the online application will be sent to your institutional email inbox, whose address is fiscalcode@studenti.unical.it. The formal communication channel with the Residential Centre is represented exclusively by this email inbox.

Once the deadlines for submitting applications have expired and the time necessary for the related checks has elapsed, the Residential Centre publishes a first provisional ranking on its Online Services Portal, formulated in an ascending manner based on the economic condition.

If you have requested the accommodation service, remember to consult both the provisional ranking relating to accommodation and scholarship one.

Check your status the provisional ranking. It can assume two distinct values:

1. Idoneo Non Beneficiario: you comply with the requirements established by the call for applications and you will have to wait for the publication of the final ranking;

2. Escluso: you do not comply with the requirements established by the call for applications.

If you are excluded from the provisional ranking due to errors in completing the application, you can submit a request for re-examination within the third day following the date of publication, in order to be readmitted to the ranking.

Once the deadlines for submitting appeals have expired, the final ranking is published and you can find one of the following outcomes:

1. Idoneo Beneficiario: you meet the requirements established by the call for applications and you are entitled to receive the amount of money of the scholarship and to access the requested services free of charge;

2. Idoneo non Beneficiario: you meet the requirements established by the call for applications but you cannot benefit from the scholarship and free services because of the exhaustion of available financial resources;

3. Escluso: you do not comply with the requirements established by the call for applications and you are not entitled to benefit from the scholarship and free services.

During the academic year, in according to the allocation of financial resources by the Ministry of University and Research and the Calabria Region, scrolling lists are possible and as a result the status can change from "Idoneo non Beneficiario" to "Idoneo Beneficiario".

If you are eligible recipient student and you have requested the accommodation service in your application, you will receive a communication on your institutional email address in order to accept the assigned accommodation. Check the convening calendar published on the web page https://www.unical.it/didattica/diritto-allo-studio/servizio-alloggi/.

In order to maintain the status of "idoneo beneficiario" or "idoneo non beneficiario" it is necessary to achieve at least 20 credits no later than 30/11/2025.

If you are unable to reach the aforementioned merit requirement by that date, you will lose eligibility for the scholarship and will be required to repay any amount of money already received and to pay the taxes and contributions required for enrolment, as well as the services used at the cost of a not eligible student for the scholarship.

The benefits are also revoked in the case of suspension and interruption of studies, withdrawal from studies or transfer to another university before 01/08/2025, despite having achieved the required merit requirement.

The disbursement of the amount of money is subject to the achievement of at least 20 CFU by the 30th of Novembre 2025.

The delivery times depend on the date on which you reach the merit requirement, as shown in the following table:

The actual crediting of the amounts to your bank account will take place based on the technical times necessary to complete the payment procedures.

The Residential Centre is not responsible for sums of money mistakenly credited to another person due to an incorrect IBAN code communicated by the recipient student.
