Setting up your fist Italian bank account

ENJOY HUMANITAS CARD is the result of a joint collaboration between Banca Populare Di

Bergamo and Humanitas University. The ENJOY card is used as a badge as well as a regular

debit card. With the ENJOY card you can subscribe (free of charge) to the UBI Formula which

is a program that will allow you to accumulate points when you use your card. You will be

able to use those points choosing amongst 100 possible prizes. With the ENJOY card you get 1

point every 5 euros spent.

You can also set up an Italian bank account in any bank you want. All you need is your codice

fiscale as well as your ID. Humanitas can on request arrange appointments with the Posta

(Bancaposta)of Rozzano so as to get a debit card from them.

For more about what is the codice fiscale and how to obtain it refer to page(XXX) of the

welcome kit.

How to obtain it

The tax code is issued by the Italian Revenue Agency ( Agenzia Delle Entrate). The request may be submit-

ted personally to any territorial office. At the moment of the application, a valid identity card of the appli-

cant must be presented. Documentation proving the legitimacy of the presence of the subject in Italy may

also be presented. At the moment of the request, the Revenue Office issues a certificate of attribution.

For more information visit : www.agenziaentrate.gv.it

The Italian fiscal code card, officially known as Italy’s Codi-

ce Fiscale is similar to a Social Security Number card in the

United States or the National Insurance Number used in the

United Kingdom. The tax code in Italy is an alphanumeric

code of 16 characters. Designed by and for the Italian tax

office, it is used for several purposed including health or

private contracts .

Driving Licence

Students holding a driving license issued by a country member of the EU can

drive in Italy with it. It is not compulsory for them to convert their license.

Students holding an international driving license do not need to convert it.

Students holding a driving license issued by a country non-member of the EU

can drive in Italy with their original document during one year. After this

period, they must convert their license at one of the Provincial Motor Vehi-

cle offices (Motorizzazione Civile – Via Cilea, 119 – Milano).

Unfortunately, not every driving license can be converted. It depends on the

existence of reciprocal agreements between Italy and the other countries.

Expenses : facing the expected

Expenses may vary a lot from one individual to another. For that reason it is hard to give advices that

will be applicable to every single one of you. However we would like to give tips as we understand

that you might feel overwhelmed as a consequence of moving to a new city or even a new country for

a large part of you.

Firstly you are going to need to carry cash on you upon arrival in order to face various expenses. We

advise 200€ to 300 € so as to cover your immediate needs. Try to plan your trip in advance to avoid

wasting time as well as money. Do not forget to consider emergencies.

We usually evaluate the costs of living in Milan at 8000€ a year. Again this number may vary tremen-

dously depending on your rent or social habits!

Other various expenses that you have to keep in mind are the following :

Phone bills ( International calls from your phone as well as Italian phone contract)

Internet access ( from 20€ a month)

Social life ( 100€ a month)

Study costs including advised textbooks and study materials.

Food ( Approximately 200€ a month)

Regarding mandatory attendance

A mandatory 75% of attendance in every course is required in order to take the exams.

The attendance for each course is calculated from the signature sheet that will be distributed at

the beginning of each classes.

Please do not forget to sign the sheet.

It is strongly advises not to miss any practical classes are they are critical to the under-

standing of fundamental clinical concepts.

Regarding exams

There are 3 exam sessions :

Winter session (January/

February)

Summer session (June/July)

Fall session (September)

In each of this exam sessions you

will be available to book your exams

at specific dates to be booked at

least one week in advance. The ex-

am dates are usually made available

a month in advance to let you care-

fully plane your study strategy.

Please note that some exams can only be taken if their

prerequisite course has been validated. For instance you

will not be able to take the Body Architecture module if

you didn’t pass the Building Body module beforehand.

Moreover you will need to validate certain modules from

your 1st and 2nd year in order to be admitted into 3rd

year.

Those considerations have to be taken into account in the

planning of your examination.

ENJOY YOUR STAY IN MILAN

Milan is a city bustling with activity. It is a city full of opportunities that has much to

offer. It is a metropolis that looks towards the future even though it cultural legacy

remains one of the most influential in Europe. Milan is both an internationally re-

nowned economic centre as well as the capital of Italian fashion and design .

No doubt that you will enjoy one aspect or the other of this incredibly young and dy-

namic city. Humanitas University encourage you to be curious and do so we provide

with a few tips!

The Duomo

« The Duomo, symbol, par excellence, of Milan, is the first thing that you look for when you wake up in the

morning and the last one where you rest your eyes on in the evening. Someone says that The Duomo of Milan

just follows San Pietro in the Vatican. I do not understand how it could be second to any other human

work.» (Mark Twain)

The Duomo is the symbol of the city. It is dedicated to Santa Maria Nascente and

it is located in its namesake square, in the very centre of Milan.

Concerning its area, the Duomo is the third catholic church in the world after

San Pietro, in the Vatican, and Sevilles’s cathedral.

The construction has been started in 1387 and it went on until 1813, when Na-

poleon commanded its completion.

On December, 30th 1774, the “Madonnina” (the little Madonna) was inaugurated.

Since then, this gold statue has become the deepest symbol of Milan.

Timetable for visiting the Duomo Every day: 8 am – 9 pm. Last ticket at 8 pm. Last admission

8.10 pm. Prices

Duomo Duomo – Museum € 2.00

Terraces Ascent with elevator: € 13.00

The Castello Sforzesco

The Castello Sforzesco is one of the main

symbols of Milan and its history. It was built in

the XIV century by order of Galeazzo II Visconti

and renewed in the XV century by order of

Francesco Sforza, Duke of Milan, from whom

the castle takes its name.

During the centuries, it has been subject of

several transformations and it is now an

important touristic site and seat of many

cultural events.

Behind it, you can take a walk in the beautiful

Parco Sempione (Sempione Park), one of the big-

gest green zones of Milan, created in the XIX cen-

tury. Moreover, exactly on the opposite side of the

castle, at the other limit of the park, you can ad-

mire the Arco della Pace (Peace Arch), completed

in 1838 and dedicated to the peace of 1815 among

the European powers.

Timetable for visiting the Castle

Leonardo Da Vinci was involved in their creation in 1482 and some of his incredi-

ble drawings are now set at the Navigli’s Museum in Milan (Museo dei Navigli).

Since the second half of the XIX century, the Navigli have begun losing their useful-

ness but they have become, little by little, the very center of Milan night life.

You should not renounce to have a typical HappyHour in one of the several bars

that are spread all along the Navigli!

The Navigli are a system of canals which in the past connected Milan with the

lake Maggiore, the lake of Como and the low part of the Ticino river assuring the

city an open way to Europe and a direct access to the sea. Their construction had

been held from the XII until the XIX century and, during this period, their water

has irrigated and made productive a large area of lands.

is situated in Santa Maria delle Grazie church, which the Duke chose as his fami-
