Are you a doctor, medical student, or healthcare professional planning to study or work in Italy?

Why you need C1 
before a Medical Italian

Italian universities and medical boards require proof of C1 proficiency before you are allowed to enroll in medical programs or attend licensing exams.

This is because:

  • Medical education in Italy is conducted entirely in Italian.

  • Understanding and producing complex texts, lectures, and clinical discussions requires advanced fluency.

  • Patients and colleagues expect a high level of communication clarity.
