In 2015, UNINETTUNO launched the project “University for Refugees – Education without Boundaries” for the enrollment of refugees and asylum seekers to the online BA courses of the Università Telematica Internazionale UNINETTUNO. The project also allows the recognition of academic qualifications, previously acquired in their countries of origin, the recognition of their professional competences in order to facilitate their integration and the access to the University, master's and vocational training courses in the host country. 50 scholarships for the full coverage of the universities fees was delivered to the first 50 applicants.
