What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0001031) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 52 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.3★ — read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Italy yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics — slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

lee Spearz

One of the worst universities in my opinion. For international students, they are being racist sometimes, that they don’t let students complete exams and finish off studies. No support from the faculty including higher authorities. Strongly recommend not to apply for this university.

Gianni Zigante

I was able to visit the entrance and the internal courtyard with the bronze monument dedicated to the students who fell during the battle of Curtatone in May 1848 ... and view some beautiful frescoes on the ceiling of the portico, the author of which I was unable to find out!!!

X??????

I was in Siena in 1980. Not as a university student, but to begin learning the Italian language as a foreigner. Siena is a beautiful medieval city, completely enclosed within an ancient castle, but there's a new city outside the castle as …

Dino Rossi

SHAME on the rector who thinks he owns the university. The university doesn't belong to him, it belongs first to the citizens who fund it with taxes, and he must willingly or unwillingly comply with the Ministry of Education's directives. …

Noname

A professor praises Nazism and Hitler on Twitter. The university initially dismisses these as "personal opinions." When they're overwhelmed by media attention, they become "shameful statements." Consistency, manager. Consistency.

Isabella Fanti

I was saddened to read the Rector's overly benevolent proposal
toward the "being"—I can't call him a man, much less a professor—who offended Meloni, and all of us women with her. Just a three-month suspension, are you …

fiammetta cincinelli

Law School. Excellent. Department of Historical Studies and Cultural Heritage. Equally excellent. The professors are highly trained, and if you graduate with a good grade, you're at the top.

Franco Zambelli

If the level of education of the teachers is even equal to what we have read and heard in recent days, I will do everything I can to dissuade my son from enrolling at that university.

paolo canevaro

A university that allows a boor like Gozzini to teach after insulting the Honorable Meloni is truly worthless.
The Rector should take exemplary action against this incompetent man.

Giuseppe Marzulli

The Rector's Palace has been the heart of the centuries-old University of Siena since 1815, the year in which regular academic activity resumed after the Napoleonic era. …

Francesco Luzi

Mediocre qualification pathways. Disjointed activities, constant corrections in submissions, delays in communication, final exams disconnected from the school environment.

tommaso principi

A tragicomic experience with the first cycle of teacher training. A disgraceful $2,500 fee, with added insults and ridicule.

Inf.97

Making an appointment or speaking with the University of Siena office is more complicated than actually taking the exams.

Mikel

A beautiful university building. It's a shame I couldn't study there. The university is impressive.

Vu Thuy Phuong Trang

Great University with all helpful support from Professors and supervisors. Thank you Unisi!

Leonardo Cantini

It’s a historic university setting, but the student facilities aren't up to scratch.

????

Horse racing was held there, and I felt like I was in a historical picture scroll.

Narciso CIATTI

Friendliness and kindness and then you can find everything even vintage.

Calvicius Lx3

Completely disorganized and an offering that leaves much to be desired.

Aldo Guidi

A place full of great gratitude and affection towards all students.

Claudio Pacchierotti

Excellent teaching, very quiet and safe city. Excellent services.
