Calendar of Examination Sessions – Academic Year 2025/2026

The examination calendar is organised so as not to overlap with the teaching calendar and is structured as follows:

• 5 examination sessions at the end of the first semester (December–February), of which:
  • 1 in December, at the end of courses, from Thursday 11 December 2025 to Friday 22 December 2025;
    (first-year students may sit the exams for courses taught in the first semester);
  • 4 in January and February, at intervals of at least 14 days from one another, from Tuesday 7 January 2026 to Friday 20 February 2026;
• 1 session in April, reserved for second-year students enrolled in joint degree programmes (Italian–French, Italian–German), dates to be determined;
• 4 examination sessions at the end of the second semester (June–July), from Tuesday 3 June 2026 to Monday 31 July 2026, at intervals of at least 14 days from one another.
  (The last session will take place in the second half of July);
• 1 session in September, from Monday 1 September 2026 to 11 September 2026.

Guide to Registration for Mandatory Elective Exams

Mandatory elective courses are not included in the student’s statutory enrolment study plan but are uploaded when the study plan is submitted. Since the study plan can be submitted only starting from the third year, mandatory elective courses must be added independently by the student.

To add and register for these courses, proceed as follows:

1. Access your personal page on SOL (Online Services) using your student ID number and password;
2. Click on “Book” – the page displaying the exams in your record will open;
3. At the bottom of that page, click on “Search for exam sessions”;
4. On the page that appears, click again on “Search for exam sessions”;
5. Enter the name of the exam you wish to take and click “Search”;
6. If the session is open for booking (no more than 14 days before the exam date), click on the magnifying glass and then on “Proceed” to complete the booking.

Once the booking has been completed, the exam will remain linked to the student’s record.

Recording of Exam Results

The School of Law informs students that the new digital exam recording system is active. This system is designed to make the registration of exam results in students’ academic records more efficient. Results will no longer be recorded on paper and subsequently transmitted to the Student Administration Offices, but will be managed directly online through a dedicated platform. This allows both faculty members and students to complete the recording process more quickly and with greater traceability.

Grades

Grades are always expressed on a scale of thirty. An exam is considered passed with a minimum grade of 18/30. When a candidate obtains the maximum grade, honours (cum laude) may be awarded unanimously. Exam results are promptly transmitted electronically by the Chair of the Examination Board. The types of examinations are regulated, in compliance with the individual degree regulations, by the Teaching Regulations of the Degree Programme.
