You are required to submit an official transcript or certified copy of your grades (in English or Italian) and a certified copy of your degree certificate from the college or university you attended. This must include grades for individual subjects with the grading scale, the type of degree, the date of graduation and the dates of enrolment.

Applicants who obtained a university degree in Italy must provide a self-declaration of the Degree Certificate and Transcript (form provided by your university). This self-declaration is only for students who graduated from Italian universities.

MFB is held entirely in English, thus all applicants must be highly proficient in written and spoken English. If English is not your mother tongue, you must submit a result of the TOEFL, IELTS, PTE Academic or CPE tests.

At the testing site, you can specify that your results be sent directly to SDA Bocconi (TOEFL School Code: 0698, PTE School Code: R7G-6R-23). If you have already taken one of these tests, the original results must be sent directly to the school. Test results prior to January 2018 are no longer valid.

A test result may be waived for mother-tongue English speakers and for students who did their degree in English, or can document significant professional experience in an English-speaking country.

A test result is mandatory for all applicants. The GMAT (or GRE) is an internationally recognized test in English that evaluates your quantitative, verbal, and analytical skills. Although there is no required minimum score for admission, a high score is beneficial during the admission process. Candidates for the 2020-21 edition of the MFB are requested to take a test by 15 June 2020. Test results prior to January 2015 are no longer valid. When the test is taken, the name of the school should be specified, which will allow our Admission Services to receive the results directly. The identification code for the MFB is 3WJ-L8-72, and for the GRE you may require the scores to be sent directly to SDA Bocconi School of Management, code 3710.

As an alternative to the GMAT/GRE, candidates can ask Admission Services to take the SDA Test, organized by SDA Bocconi, which assesses quantitative, logical, and verbal skills. Enrolment for the test is organized directly through Admission Services after submission of the application for admission.

If your company intends to financially support your participation in the MFB program (through partial or total payment of the tuition fee), an additional document must be completed by a company representative. A special form is available on our online application.
