Applying to Bocconi (A-levels)

Hi, does anyone know where I can find the application requirements for the programs in Bocconi. They dont state anywhere what sort of grades they want from A-levels in regards to the programs. I know you need to do the Online Bocconi test, but is that all they request ? UK students that applied, what grades where you required to get in order to be accepted? Any information & help is useful, thank you!

I also want to apply. They don't really mind what A-Level grades you get apparently (I joined their webinar and that is what they said), they said 55% entrance test and 45% grades. They need the results from your 3rd and 2nd last year of school. So I'm guessing they want good grades. Like maybe A*s, As, Bs because it's a very competitive uni. Also, they recommend that you get higher than 50% on their entrance test. They recommend that you resit it if you get lower than that. This is obviously to boost your chances of getting in! Hope this helps 🙂

Bocconi admits students based on their school grades in Year 11 and Year 12 (45%) the SAT or Bocconi test (55%). If you are in the English school system your GCSE grades will be important.

If I apply in my gap year will they take my a levels and second last year grades or will they take into account all three including GCSEs? How will they weight my results then?

If you apply during your gap year Bocconi still won't take account of your A-levels - just your Year 11 and Year 12 grades. TBH I'm not quite sure how Bocconi treat GCSEs. You should write to Bocconi and ask them your questions directly.
