The DiSCo Lazio scholarship, explained

If you study at a Lazio university and your family income is modest, the “diritto allo studio” scholarship is worth up to €7,556.78 a year, plus free meals and a fee exemption. This guide walks the whole thing in plain English.

The ISEEUP (the hard part)

If your income and family are abroad, you need an ISEEUP— the parified ISEE. You gather income and asset documents from your home country's authorities, have them translated into Italian and legalized (apostille or consular route, depending on your country), and take them in person to a DiSCo-affiliated CAF. It takes weeks, so it is the first thing to start — and the per-country document list is exactly what the full copilot prepares for you.

Questions students ask

When is the DiSCo Lazio scholarship deadline for 2026/2027?

Phase 1 closes on 22 July 2026, 12:00 (Rome time). It is a hard deadline with no extensions. If you submit in time, Phase 2 corrections run until 11 August 2026, 12:00 (Rome time).

What is the ISEEUP and when is it due?

The ISEEUP is the parified ISEE for students whose income or family is abroad. You sign it in person at a DiSCo-affiliated CAF by 10 December 2026. Missing it excludes you with no fix, and the home-country documents take weeks, so start early.

How much is the DiSCo Lazio scholarship worth?

For fuori-sede students the grant is €6,571.11 per year at the standard band, up to €7,556.78 at low ISEE, plus free meals. Pendolare and in-sede bands are lower.

What are the income limits to qualify?

You are excluded if your ISEE or ISEEUP is over €28,339.88, or your ISPE is over €61,608.48. Bourselo works on document checklists, not your income figures.

How many exam credits do first-year students need?

First-year students need 20 registered credits by 10 August 2027 for the full grant. Reaching it later, by 30 November 2027, means half; not reaching it by then means the grant is revoked.
