Attach a copy of your travel document to your email. If the travel document is not in your name, specify this in the email, and the Office will get back to you.
If you are a student from outside the European Union, in addition to your travel document, you must also send a copy of your passport with a student visa (if required). For visa information, see the Universitaly website. If the mobility period is longer than 90 days, a residence permit is also required.
In the following days, after completing the procedure, you will receive the “statement of arrival” in digital format. You will also receive your student id number, (numero di matricola) for access to the GCS Student Career Management (the password is the one chosen during online pre-registration) and your Unifi email address (name.surname@stud.unifi.it) that you must use for all communication with Unifi Offices.
After your enrolment, you need to update your personal page on GCS Student Career Management with your Italian personal information (e.g., domicile in Florence and Italian phone number). It is important that you keep it up to date.
