Women Awards

RESERVED TO WOMEN ADMITTED TO THE MSC IN FINANCE FOR A.Y. 2023-2024


Women Awards — Key information
Tuition and fees  100% waiver

The provisions below constitute official publication of the regulations a.y. 2023-2024 of the “Women Awards” benefit for female students enrolled in the first year of the MSc in Finance in the a.y. 2023-2024.

Bocconi University strives to advocate for an inclusive, diverse, and accepting community also from the point of view of the percentage of female students.

For this reason, starting from AY 2021-2022, Bocconi University has introduced a special type of Bocconi Graduate Merit Awards. These are called "Women Awards", designed to award exceptional and talented female students who are interested in pursuing their studies in the economic and financial field, traditionally led by men.

“Women Awards” aim to redistribute diversity within the Bocconi student body, recognizing academic achievement and the potential of female students interested in continuing their higher education in the area of economics and finance.

To assign Women Awards, consisting of a full tuition waiver, the Scholarship Committee will assess the best profiles in terms of academic career and work/study experiences abroad of female students of any citizenship who have applied for admission to the MSc in Finance in Bocconi for AY 2023-2024.

This award will be renewable for the second year of the MSc (AY 2024-2025), provided that the same merit requirements foreseen for the renewal of the Bocconi Graduate Merit Award are met (50 credits as of 10 August 2024).

The outcome of the Committee evaluation will be communicated to awardees along with admissions results. Those who wish to enroll with the award will need to complete the enrollment procedure and at the same time follow the instructions provided for in the admissions result to formally accept the award.

Please note that the assignment of the Women Award is tied to the program of admission with which it was communicated. For this reason, there is NO guarantee that Women Award holders who wish to request to change their program of admission will be allowed to transfer their benefit towards the new program.

The same regulations about acceptance, renewal, revocation and forfeiture that are foreseen for Bocconi Graduate Merit Awards also apply to Women Awards.

The benefit for the a.y. 2023-2024 will be included in the student's financial situation, which can be viewed at the Punto Blu (> administrative area> Fees, Funding and Housing) ONLY upon verification by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office of the regular enrollment for the a.y. 2023-2024. For this reason, students who in the a.y. 2023-2024 will be "registered with reserve" (or have enrollment subject to reserve) will not be able to view in the system the benefit assigned for the a.y. 2023-2024 and will not be able to receive a refund of the first installment paid (advance payment) for 2023-2024 until the reserve is lifted.

The renewal of the benefit for the a.y. 2023-2024 will also be included in the student's financial situation, which can be viewed at the Punto Blu (> administrative area> Fees, Funding and Housing) ONLY upon verification by the Fees, Funding and Housing Office of the regular enrollment for the a.y. 2023-2024 . For this reason, students who in the a.y. 2023-2024 will be "registered with reserve" (or have enrollment subject to reserve) will not be able to view in the system the confirmation of the benefit for the a.y. 2023-2024 and will not be able to receive a refund of the first installment paid (advance payment) for 2023-2024 until the reserve is lifted.
