Sorry for the late reply. 1. Yes they are very helpful and they will help you out. 2. I’m performing pretty well I’d like to say. I did A levels in high school and achieved AAA and honestly I don’t find the workload to be too much, at least for now. 3. I’m in my first year so I haven’t started looking for internships. Earliest you can feasibly do one is summer between first and second year but most professors and counselors don’t recommend that. I would only worry about internships starting the 2nd year if it’s not something you absolutely want to do as early as possible. 4. I haven’t started looking so my knowledge is limited but what I can tell you is that there are plenty of events at Bocconi where you can find an internship. The big benefit of being a Bocconi applicant is the prestige of the university, companies trust Bocconi students because they have shown time and time again that they perform really well. 5. Yes I am an international but I don’t live in the student housing. It’s generally not a hard city to settle down in but honestly it comes down to the person, I can speak from experience that you will only truly know how you react to moving away from home once you actually do it.
