I am an international student and I already see a different amount. Is this correct?

Yes. Non-EU students may be subject to the Flat Rate, under which the applicable fee bracket is determined according to the student’s country of origin.

You can check the bracket corresponding to your country in the Flat Rate table for PhD students.

I am not an Extra UE student: how much do I have to pay?

When you enrol for the first time or renew your enrolment for subsequent years, you must pay:

€190.00 regional tax + €16.00 stamp duty.

If you are entitled to a lower fee bracket, the amount will be recalculated at a later stage.

Why can’t I pay a lower amount straight away?

The regional tax cannot be automatically recalculated on the basis of your ISEE when you enrol.

If your ISEE places you in a lower fee bracket, the difference between the amount paid and the amount due will be refunded at a later stage.

How do I submit my ISEE Dottorato?

Log in to your Reserved Area and follow this path:

Menu → Student Administration → Benefits

From this section, authorise the automatic acquisition of your ISEE.

Why do you refer to the ISEE Dottorato rather than the ISEE Ordinario or ISEE Universitario?

Because the ISEE Dottorato is acquired automatically and takes into account only the PhD student’s income, whereas the ISEE Ordinario also takes into account the income of the student’s household, where applicable.

The ISEE Universitario, however, will not be accepted.

I understand, but I still want to submit the Ordinary ISEE.

• First-year PhD student: contact the PhD Office at concorso-dottorati@unipv.it;
• Second- or third-year PhD student: submit a ticket via SOS.

What are the three ISEE brackets?

The regional tax is recalculated according to the following brackets:

• Bracket 1 – €130.00: ISEE up to €26,887.93
• Bracket 2 – €160.00: ISEE from €26,887.94 to €53,775.88
• Bracket 3 – €190.00: ISEE from €53,775.89

The €16.00 stamp duty must be added to these amounts.
