In accordance with Law no. 17 dated 28 January 1999,  Università Cattolica has set up an office to assistdisabled students in their social integration and their rights. These services can be used by all disabled students enrolled in degree programmes at Università Cattolica, Specialisation Schools and Specialising Masters.

The services run on a special fund set up by the University, and help students in their university experience by responding to their specific needs for educational success and the necessary technical-administrative support.

When filling in the forms, students are asked, on a voluntary basis, to make an additional contribution of € 5.00 to increase the resources of the fund aimed at supporting students with disabilities.

The University, in turn, will increase this fund by an amount at least equal to the total amount obtained through the free subscription of the students.

The voluntary contribution of € 5.00 will be added to the amount of the second instalment.

StudioSì is the latest tool promoted by the Ministry of  Education, University and Research (MIUR) in agreement with the European Investment Bank (EIB) as part of the 2014-2020 NOP Research and Innovation and co-financed by the European Social Fund (ESF), which allows university students to take advantage of funding to support their postgraduate tertiary education.

The fund is intended for students residing in the 8 regions of Southern Italy (Abruzzo, Basilicata, Calabria, Campania, Molise, Apulia, Sardinia and Sicily) who are attending or will attend, in the 2020/2021 academic year, tertiary education courses (integrated degree programmes, graduate programmes and specialisation schools) in Italy or abroad recognised by the MUR.

Interested students can apply for a loan of up to 50,000 euros, at zero interest and without personal guarantees or third-party guarantors, which can cover not only university fees but also study-related expenses. Education pathways must be completed by 31 December 2025.
Further information on requirements and how to participate is available on the official page of the initiative on the MUR website.

Resources will be disbursed through two financial operators: Intesa San Paolo and Gruppo Bancario Cooperativo ICCREA.
