Open questions: 1) The catalogue prints the language as Italian, English, while the call states the Italian B2 rule only for a course erogato in lingua italiana.

Confirm with didattica-dss@uniroma1.it against course code 33518. 2) The call names no accepted English certificate and no score for B1. Ask the department which certificates it will accept, and whether the university wide B2 test list is read down to B1 for this course. 3) The fee page carries payment dates of 6 November 2025 and 26 March 2026, so 2,924 euro is the rate currently published under Art. 38 and may be restated for 2026/2027.

The university's own test
The university’s exact wording
“From the official call, requirement 4 of 4: "Essere in grado di utilizzare efficacemente, in forma scritta e orale, la lingua inglese, con riferimento anche ai lessici disciplinari (livello almeno B1)." The Regolamento Didattico published on the course page sets out how that is checked: "Per ciascun candidato che soddisfi i requisiti curriculari (requisiti 1 e 2) ed abbia inoltre certificato una conoscenza della lingua inglese di livello B1 o superiore (requisito 4) ... la Commissione tiene conto del curriculum e, nei casi ritenuti opportuni, invita il candidato a sostenere un colloquio, eventualmente finalizzato a verificare anche il richiesto livello di conoscenza della lingua inglese in mancanza di idonea certificazione." So the bar is B1, not B2, no test and no score is named, and the Commission's own interview is the fallback where the candidate has no certificate. Separately, the call states at point 6 that a non-EU citizen resident abroad who needs a study visa must pass the Italian language test at B2 or hold an Italian certificate at B2 or above, and that this "requisito e obbligatorio solo per coloro che richiedono iscrizione ad un corso erogato in lingua italiana".”

Why this figure, and not a lower one

What the call asks for
A three year bachelor's degree or university diploma, or a foreign qualification judged suitable. A foreign degree must sit at the first cycle of the Bologna Process, EQF level 6, and give access to second cycle study in the country that issued it.
At least 60 CFU across the scientific disciplinary sectors the call lists, drawn from Area 01 mathematics and computer science, Area 02 physics, Area 06 medical sciences, Area 09 industrial and information engineering, Area 11 psychology, Area 13 economics and statistics, and Area 14 political and social sciences.
Knowledge of Mathematics: basic differential and integral calculus, functions of one or more variables, linear algebra and analytic geometry.
Knowledge of Probability: properties of probability, random variables, notions of convergence of sequences of random variables.
Knowledge of Statistics: elements of descriptive statistics, and inferential statistics covering sampling distributions, parameter estimation methods and tests of parametric hypotheses.
Knowledge of at least one programming language.
English at level B1 or above, used effectively in writing and speech, including the vocabulary of the subject.
Non-EU citizens resident abroad who need a study visa must also show Italian at B2 or above, because the course is delivered in Italian.
Candidates who have not yet graduated may ask for the requirements check, but must be awarded the degree by 19 December 2026 if they studied at another Italian or international university, or by 23 January 2027 if they studied at Sapienza.

Before any of it counts
Start the legalisation chain first
A degree awarded outside Europe has to be attested and legalised before an Italian university reads it. That chain is decided by the country you apply from, and no office on it publishes a turnaround.
The degree
About this degree.
A two year master's in statistics at Sapienza, built on a shared statistical core and then split into three curricula: Biostatistica, Data analytics and Demografico sociale. Most compulsory teaching is marked Italian, so it suits an applicant who already holds Italian at B2, not one looking for an English taught degree.
Statistical Sciences is a two year laurea magistrale at Sapienza University of Rome. The course code is 33518 and the degree class is LM-82. It is run by the Department of Scienze Statistiche inside the Faculty of Ingegneria dell'informazione, informatica e statistica. Teaching is in person in Rome. The catalogue prints the language as Italian, English.
The university's full description
All students take a shared core in statistics, applied statistics and applied mathematics. The plan then splits into three curricula: Biostatistica, Data analytics and Demografico sociale. The published 2026/2027 plan includes Statistical Decision Theory, SUPERVISED LEARNING, Stochastic Processes for applied sciences and Sample surveys theory and methods in the first year. The final exam carries 21 CFU. A further 12 CFU are chosen by the student from Sapienza courses, as long as the choice fits the curriculum.
Most compulsory modules in the published plan are marked ITA. A smaller set is marked ENG, for example SPATIAL STATISTICS AND STATISTICAL TOOLS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL DATA, DATA DRIVEN DECISION MAKING, Social Network Analysis and Statistical Machine Learning. This degree does not appear in Sapienza's list of programmes taught in English for 2026/2027. The sibling degree MSc Statistical Methods and Applications, from the same department, is the one on that list.
The call for this degree asks for English at level B1 or above. It names no test and no score. A candidate who holds no suitable certificate can be called to an interview with the admissions Commission, and that interview may check English as well. Because the course is delivered in Italian, a non-EU citizen living abroad also has to show Italian at B2, either with a certificate from a CLIQ institution or by passing the Sapienza CISIA ITA L2 test.
Admission is not capped and there is no ranking. The call asks you to pay a 10 euro fee on Infostud using code 33518, then wait for the department to check your requirements and your personal preparation. There is no pre-selection and no pre-acceptance letter for this type of course. An applicant who needs a study visa has one date only, 15 September 2026. Applicants who do not need a visa can also use 15 October 2026, 17 November 2026 or 17 December 2026. A degree awarded outside Sapienza has to be in hand by 19 December 2026.
Tuition follows Sapienza's standard scale rather than a fixed programme price. The full published rate for this faculty's bracket is 2,924 euro a year, paid in three instalments of 877, 1,023 and 1,024 euro. A regional tax of 140 euro and a stamp duty of 16 euro are added on top. A student who files income tax abroad pays a fixed band amount instead of the scale: 300 euro for band A, 700 euro for band B and 1,500 euro for band C.
Classes for 2026/2027 begin on 23 September 2026.

Asked about this programme
The questions this one gets.
Is this degree taught in English?
No. The catalogue prints the language as Italian, English, but most compulsory modules in the published plan are marked ITA. Only a smaller set of modules is marked ENG. The official call is published in Italian only and there is no English version of it. This course is not on Sapienza's list of programmes taught in English for 2026/2027.
What English score do I need?
The call asks for English at level B1 or above. It names no test and no minimum score. If you hold no suitable certificate, the admissions Commission can call you to an interview and check your English there.
Do I need Italian?
If you are a non-EU citizen living abroad and you need a study visa, yes. You have to show Italian at B2 or above, with a certificate from a CLIQ institution or by passing the Sapienza CISIA ITA L2 test. The call states this requirement applies to anyone enrolling in a course delivered in Italian.
Is there a minimum grade?
The call and the Regolamento Didattico set none. The bar is 60 CFU in the listed subject sectors, plus knowledge of mathematics, probability, statistics and one programming language. There is no minimum mark out of 100.
What does it cost to apply?
10 euro, paid on Infostud against code 33518. The 30 euro pre-selection application fee is a different fee, charged on the MoveIN platform, and this course is not in that pre-selection.
When is the deadline?
If you need a study visa, 15 September 2026 is the only date open to you. The requirements check opened on 2 July 2026. Applicants who do not need a visa can also use 15 October 2026, 17 November 2026 or 17 December 2026.
How much is tuition?
The full published rate for this faculty's bracket is 2,924 euro a year, in three instalments of 877, 1,023 and 1,024 euro, plus 140 euro regional tax and 16 euro stamp duty. A student who files income tax abroad pays a fixed band amount instead: 300 euro for band A, 700 euro for band B, 1,500 euro for band C.
Can I pick a specialism?
Yes. After the shared core you choose one of three curricula: Biostatistica, Data analytics or Demografico sociale.
One programme, one university, once a year.
That is what Universitaly allows. Three questions tell you where you stand before you spend that choice: the degree level, what the visa wants in the bank, and how much calendar is left.
