A.di.su. Puglia - Prizes of degree

ADISU Puglia graduation prize (Premio di Laurea)

If you complete your degree within the specified timeframe, you will receive a sum of one-off cash bonus. This amount is equal to half of the final student grant (borsa di studio) you received from ADISU Puglia and therefore varies from case to case. The amount shown here is an example of approximately 1,296 EUR. This is a one-off payment, not a monthly grant. It is paid out by ADISU Puglia, the public agency for student financial support in the Puglia region of southern Italy, as part of its annual ‘Benefici e Servizi’ call for applications.

Who can apply

• Earlier grant: You have already received an ADISU grant for students in Apulia or have qualified for one (idoneo), even if there were no funds left to pay out.
• University: You are studying at a state university, art college or conservatoire in Apulia, for example at the University of Bari, the Politecnico di Bari, the University of Foggia, the University of Salento in Lecce or the Libera Università Mediterranea in Casamassima.
• Degree: You have completed your Bachelor’s degree (laurea triennale) or Master’s degree (laurea magistrale) within the standard period of study, i.e. within the officially stipulated duration of study.
• Grades: Your final mark is at least 105 out of 110.
• Financial need: You met the income thresholds for the original grant. For 2026/2027, this means an ISEE of up to 26,000 EUR. The ISEE is Italy’s official measure of a household’s income and assets.
• Field of study: All participants are eligible to take part.
• Nationality: Both Italian and international students are eligible to apply.

How to apply

Applications must be submitted online via the ADISU Puglia student portal. The award will only be paid out whilst funds last. It cannot be combined with a scholarship for an additional semester; the system automatically selects the option that results in the higher amount.

How realistic are your chances?

This award is aimed at a small target group. You must have already received an ADISU Puglia scholarship, studied in Puglia, completed your degree within the prescribed time frame, and achieved a grade of at least 105/110. As this is a small, selective group, your chances are good if you clearly meet all these criteria. The catch is that payment depends on the funds available; therefore, it is advisable to apply early.
