2.2 A preliminary interview is indispensable also for acceptance of enrollments made by students who are not familiar with the letters of the Latin alphabet.
2.3 The intensive courses for groups take place in the morning or afternoon hours. The arrangement of the classes is established by the school directorate on the first day of the course in line with the organizational requirements. However, in majority of cases the intensive classes for the groups are held in the morning throughout the year. 
2.4 During the first 90 minutes of the intensive course students are required to take a test aimed at evaluation of their linguistic level (the students categorized as absolute beginners on the other hand start with the lessons immediately without being subject to a test).

3. ACCOMMODATION

3.1 The arrival to the accommodations provided for by the school is expected on Sunday prior to the start of the course; the departure takes place on Saturday following the end of the course, at 10 am.
3.2 The apartments are entirely intended for the students of the school or may be occupied by the owner at the same time. In any case, this is not the accommodation in famiglia (meaning that one does not share lunch, dinner or any other activity with the owner). Each person has his/her privacy and personal responsibility for the apartment.
3.3 Bathroom and kitchen are shared: each student is required to keep them clean after having used them in order to allow for the use of the same by others. Cleaning of the rooms and communal spaces is the responsibility and duty of the students.
3.4 In the event of any type of malfunction in the apartment it is necessary to inform the owner who will see to the repair within the appropriate time. Students are held liable for any damage caused to the objects and items resulting in payment of damages incurred (the owner may ask for a preventive deposit).
3.5 The relationship between the student and the owner of the apartment is a direct one: the school assures merely the adequacy of the accommodation. The payment is carried out at arrival directly to the owner of the house. If the student is not satisfied with the accommodation s/he may refuse to accept it upon arrival, but once accepted they are obliged to pay the entire fee agreed upon.
3.6 It is strictly forbidden to accommodate friends or acquaintances in the apartment and in particular have them sleep over in one’s room without previously obtained approval by the owner of the house.
The violation of this rule leads to immediate removal of the guest without reimbursement of the fee paid.  
3.7 When using the communal spaces, one is expected to use common sense (avoid using the kitchen in evening hours, listening to the music at a high volume, needlessly wasting the hot water boiler when other tenants need to take a shower, using thoughtlessly electric appliances, failing to meet the rules of condominium, etc.). One of the tasks of the guests of the apartment is disposing of the garbage every day in the green dumpsters located on the street.
