Discussion

Fiona Grace Peterson Jan 10, 2020:
@Vittorio People have many reasons for being "fuori corso", and it certainly does not mean they are necessarily a "dropout".
Marco Solinas Jan 8, 2020:
To Asker There are many entries for "fuori corso" in the glossary. Here is one example: https://www.proz.com/kudoz/italian-to-english/education-peda... . It means that the student did non complete the program within the allotted time frame and is in the second supplementary year.

past envisaged completion date

Something along the lines of "Student enrolled in second year of studies, past envisaged completion date."

I know this is the meaning, because I was "fuori corso" for six months when I did my nursing degree!

"Student status is lost if you are enrolled in the third year “fuori corso” (past the envisaged completion date) for the fourth time."

as extra-curricular second-year (course, activity)

in qualità is just a fancy substitute for come

disagree Fiona Grace Peterson : The correct meaning is given by Marco, that the student did not complete the course within the allotted time frame.
