We are continuously updating this page with the cutoff scores and ranking lists for every public medical and dentistry uni in Italy offering an English programme. The list is updated every Monday by universitaly, and consequently here.
The 2026 IMAT rankings were released on Monday, 26th of October. Universitaly for EU students, and the specific universities for Non-EU IMAT candidates. You can find below the number of seats for each university based on the 2026 list, and their current cut-off score. EU cut-off scores will change for quite some time due to scrolling, so we will continue updating the page through out the next few months. The EU seat numbers are according to this official document by the Ministry of Education, Universities and Research (MUR), and the non-EU seats from this official document.

Important Information
In order to enrol online in universities students have received an offer from, candidates must use the FISCAL CODE (codice fiscale) generated on Universitaly. Later, they have to obtain the OFFICIAL FISCAL CODE from an Agenzie Delle Entrate. Here is an overview of Italian bureaucracy to help guide you. After the deadline for enrollment into the university, the online procedure will not be available, and not-properly registered candidates will be considered as renouncing.
EU students who have not received an offer should MAKE SURE TO CONFIRM THEIR INTEREST TO STAY IN THE RANKING. Scrolling can go on for weeks, and you might still have a chance to be offered a seat.

What are Marco Polo seats?
Due to the Marco Polo programme between Italy and China since 2006, some universities reserve certain non-EU seats for Chinese students, colloquially referred to as “Marco Polo seats”. Universities often have additional requirements for such Chinese international students.
However, these spots often remain unfilled and are often allocated to the non-EU seat pool. For example, in 2024 Pavia had a total of 40 non-EU seats, 5 of which were reserved for Chinese students. However, since only 1 Chinese student applied, a total of 39 seats were allocated to non-EU, non-Chinese students.
