In such cases, the relevant certification must be uploaded to the ESSE3 platform at the time of application submission, together with a self-declaration of conformity to the original document.
Verification of Personal Academic Preparation
The verification of the personal academic preparation of candidates who meet the curricular requirements is carried out through the evaluation of their academic records and, if necessary, an interview.
The interview, if required, will be conducted online:
