The Equivalent Economic Situation Indicator (ISEE) certificate for study purposes (ISEE- University) is necessary to assess students’ family financial situation to determine tuition fees and other benefits for the right to university education.
Applicant will be asked to fill in a form, the “Dichiarazione Sostitutiva Unica -DSU“, a declaration which contains all the necessary information (family income and assets) to determine ISEE. DSU certificate is valid from the time of submission until the following December 31. The declaration submitted by December 31, is valid for the current academic year.
When To Submit Isee Declaration
The ISEE declaration must be submitted every year by 15 October or postponed to the next available working day if falling on Saturdays or holidays (the date of submission of DSU certificate to CAF (Tax Assistance Centre) or INPS website will be taken as proof, not the response of the ISEE amount determined by INPS).
The student will be placed in the highest bracket in case of failure to submit the ISEE certification except for cases of optional submission for certain types of total and partial exemptions. For freshmen, the deadline is set at 60 days from the enrollment date. If the ISEE is submitted after the October 15 deadline, a progressive penalty fee applies based on the delay as follows:
| Days of delay | Penalty amount | Deadline |
| Up to 60 days | 120,00 € | 30 days from the date of acquisition of the ISEE declaration |
| From 61 to 120 | 150,00 € | |
| Over 120 | 180,00 € |
Fine is not charged to those who:
- have applied for graduation for a previous academic session;
- are attending a foreign university as part of an international mobility agreement during the ISEE submission period.
Submission Procedures
The ISEE for university benefits must be submitted either at authorized Tax Assistance Centres (CAF) or online through the INPS website within the specified deadlines. Authorization must be granted to the University to acquire the data from the INPS database through the student’s personal account on the Student Portal.
