Overview
With around 32,000 students, Rome Tre teaches in architecture, law, economics, engineering, education and the humanities. It stands out for its modern character and its city-integrated campuses.
Alongside Sapienza and Tor Vergata, the university offers a smaller and more student-focused alternative, and is active in research and internationalisation.
The city of Rome and student life
The capital of Lazio and of Italy, Rome is a metropolis where culture and career opportunities concentrate. Housing costs are high, yet the DiSCo Lazio grant and the fee exemptions can lower them. Rome Tre’s campuses are well linked by public transport.
Faculties and signature programmes
The fields Turkish students often turn to:
- Architecture (strong)
- Law and economics
- Engineering (computing, civil, mechanical)
- The humanities and education
- The basic sciences and political science
The university’s English-taught master’s programmes open the door to apply without an Italian precondition.
Language of instruction and language conditions
Programmes are mainly Italian; some are English. Italian-taught programmes want a B2 language certificate (CILS/CELI) or the university exam, English-taught ones IELTS/TOEFL.
Application for Turkish students
The application begins with the programme choice and the Universitaly pre-enrolment. A CIMEA or a Dichiarazione di Valore is needed for the degree recognition. The apostilled, sworn-Italian-translated form of your diploma and transcript must stand ready at this stage.
Tuition fees and scholarships
Fees are tiered by the ISEE value showing the family’s income and assets; low-income students can be largely exempted. The regional grant agency DiSCo Lazio (Lazio DSU) provides housing, food and cash support; the application wants the sworn translation of your income documents and an ISEE Parificato. For detail see our scholarships section.
Which documents should you have sworn-translated for the University of Rome Tre?
Applying to the University of Rome Tre (or to a programme in the same city), most documents issued in Turkey need a sworn Italian translation. The most-translated documents in master’s, doctoral and bachelor’s applications:
- The diploma (bachelor’s/master’s) and, where applicable, the provisional graduation certificate,
- The transcript and the diploma supplement,
- The course contents (where a recognition/compatibility assessment is needed),
- The income and financial documents (for the DSU grant and the ISEE Parificato),
- The statement of intent, CV and references (in Italian or English, by the programme’s language).
The order generally runs: the document is apostilled first, then sworn-translated into Italian from the apostilled version, and where needed the degree recognition (a CIMEA report or the consulate Dichiarazione di Valore) is obtained. For detail see our apostille guide, CIMEA recognition, Dichiarazione di Valore and Universitaly application pages. For document-level detail, the diploma-transcript translation and university application translation pages help.
We prepare the sworn Italian translation of your diploma, transcript and financial documents end to end, apostille tracking included. For an exact price, take a free quote, and for the scholarship channels in Italy, see our scholarships section.
