In preparing this web site we have tried to verify more than once every statement and every procedure in order to provide a trustful source to our fellow students. However, since law in Italy varies very frequently, and since we know we are far from being perfect, we should warn you that all information contained in this web site comes as it is without any warranty that is actually correct.
