UniCamillus Medicine 2026: scores, rankings and admission

Students preparing for the UniCamillus Medicine and Surgery admission test in English almost always start from the same doubts. How the score is calculated, what score is actually needed to get in, how many places are available, how the ranking works, when results are published, whether rankings move and if it is possible to be admitted after an initial exclusion.
In this guide we go through all of these points step by step, using simple language and sticking closely to the official rules for the 2026/2027 academic year, so that everything is clear before, during and after the test.

How the UniCamillus 2026 admission test score is calculated

For the 2026 intake, the score calculation for Italian, European Union and equivalent candidates is clearly defined. The written test consists of 60 multiple choice questions, to be completed in 60 minutes, with a maximum score of 90 points.

Each correct answer is worth 1.5 points.
Each wrong answer results in a -0.25 point penalty.
Each unanswered question gives 0 points.

This scoring system makes strategy important. Leaving a question blank does not lower the score, while guessing incorrectly does. The final result depends not only on how many questions are answered correctly, but also on how uncertainty is managed during the test.

That is why preparation should include realistic simulations, not only theory. Tools such as TestBuddy, with timed simulations and detailed performance tracking, help turn the scoring system into something predictable rather than stressful.

Minimum score in 2026 and how to estimate the real entry score

For 2026, the official call sets a minimum eligibility score equal to 10% of the maximum score, which corresponds to 9 points out of 90.
Candidates who score below this threshold are considered not eligible and cannot be admitted, even if places later become available.

This value, however, is not the real admission score. It only determines whether a candidate can remain in the ranking.
The score that truly matters is the score of the last admitted candidate, which depends on the number of applicants and their overall performance.

Looking at official 2025 rankings, it is clear that regulatory thresholds can change between calls, while the actual admission score is only known once rankings are published. For this reason, estimating one’s chances means comparing simulation results with past rankings and understanding score distribution, not relying only on the minimum eligibility score.

Available places for UniCamillus Medicine 2026

For the 2026/2027 academic year, UniCamillus offers 425 places for Italian, European Union and equivalent candidates and 225 places for non-European Union candidates residing abroad.

Places are assigned through university-specific rankings, not through a national centralized ranking.
The total number of places may be adjusted following official determinations, but the admission process remains managed directly by UniCamillus.

How the UniCamillus ranking works

The UniCamillus ranking is a local ranking, not a national one.
The score obtained in this test is valid only for UniCamillus and cannot be used to apply to other universities.

For European candidates in 2026, the ranking works as follows:
the first 425 candidates are listed as admitted;
candidates ranked from 426 to 475 are listed as admitted with reserve during the initial pre-enrolment phase.

There is no system of preferences between universities. Admission depends exclusively on ranking position.

Ranking movements and how scrolling works

Ranking scrolling is used to fill places left vacant due to withdrawals or missed enrolments.

The mechanism is always the same:
an official notice is published;
candidates are called in strict ranking order;
those called must complete the required steps by 1:00 p.m. on the second working day after publication.

Scrolling can happen multiple times and does not follow a fixed calendar. In 2025, rankings moved across several periods using the same rules.
This means that not being admitted at the first release does not automatically mean exclusion, as long as the candidate remains in a valid ranking position and respects deadlines.

How to read scores and results on the official portal

Results are published in anonymous form, using a personal identification code assigned during registration.
Candidates must access the student portal with their credentials and match their code with the published ranking lists.

Official publication on the university website is the only valid communication method. Emails do not replace published notices.

When results are published in 2026

For 2026, the first official publication dates are already set:
results for European candidates are published by 25 March 2026;
results for non-European Union candidates are published by 1 April 2026.

Dates for subsequent ranking scrolls are not fixed in advance and are communicated through official notices as places become available.

Is there a single final national ranking

For UniCamillus, there is no single national final ranking.
Each admission call produces its own ranking, valid only for that specific call and candidate category. Multiple rankings may be published within the same academic year.

Tie-breaking rules in case of equal scores

In the event of a tie score, precedence is determined according to the criteria defined in the official rules.
If parity still remains, priority is given to the younger candidate.

Withdrawals, later calls and re-entry possibilities

Candidates who withdraw or fail to enrol within the required timeframe lose their right to the place.
That place is reassigned through ranking scrolling to the next eligible candidate.

This system makes it possible to be admitted later, even after an initial exclusion, provided that the candidate remains in the ranking and responds promptly to official calls.

If admission is not achieved

The official documents do not define a detailed appeal procedure with fixed deadlines and forms.
What is clearly предусмотрed is the possibility to apply to subsequent admission calls within the same academic year.

For this reason, continuing structured preparation while monitoring official publications is essential. Knowing one’s real level through simulations and performance analysis helps face further attempts with clarity rather than uncertainty. This is exactly where TestBuddy fits in, allowing candidates to track progress and understand where they stand without unnecessary pressure.
