Università telematica Unitelma Sapienza di Roma

Roma, Lazio · Private · Online university

This is an online university (università telematica). Its enrolment counts students studying remotely across Italy, so it is not comparable with a campus university's, and it is kept out of the “largest universities” lists for that reason.

This is a private university, so it sets its own fees; many still scale them by family income. The figures are the averages it reported to the Ministry, not a price list.

What isn't here

Entry scores: most Italian degrees admit anyone with a secondary-school diploma, and capped programmes set their own tests, so there is no national cut-off to compare. Graduate outcomes: the main survey (AlmaLaurea) is not published as open data. And dropout: the Ministry publishes it for Italy as a whole — about 6.5% leave after the first year (2024/25, provisional) — not for individual universities.
