Apply for the Africa Scholars Program at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore 2020

Brief Description

Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, as part of its mission to foster relationships with developing countries, has developed a special program for students from the African continent. This program will enable students to study in 2-year graduate degree programs taught in English at either Milan, Roma, Piacenza or Cremona campuses.

Through the Cattolica Africa Program, all accepted applicants will be offered tuition fee reductions (see the chart below). However, students will still be responsible for their own living expenses, hence the Cattolica Africa Program is NOT a program through which full scholarships can be obtained.Students, either citizens or residents, of all African countries may apply for the Cattolica Africa Program, which is applicable only for the following degree programs taught in English.
