GRE (V-164)

Jacobo de Camps
"...as I was a bit lost I decided to prepare with an academy. I am a hard worker so I was looking for a place that would allow me to focus and fully dedicate to my preparation from the very beggining; thanked to my teacher and the amount of materials I could achieve my goal."

Olivia Prior
"In my opinion these exams don't just test your knowledge but also your problem solving skills and that's why it's so important to prepare them with specialists. We focused on working on my weaknesses (Vocabulary and Reasoning Comprehension). I finally exceeded my goals."

"Before EPIC I was preparing with another school and scored poorly in both verbal and quantitative. After 1 month of intensive with Jaclyn I got the grade I needed. Thank you EPIC!"

Teymour Benet
"I took the exam twice and the second time the result was even worse. I realized that it was not a study problem but that I was not preparing correctly. I met EPIC and they organized a work plan for me (mock, specific verbal and quant exercises, flash cards,...). They were always helping me and in 1 month I achieved my goal."

Why Should Students in Milan Take the GRE?

The GRE is one test that opens many doors — from Bocconi SDA and POLIMI at home to INSEAD, London Business School, HEC Paris, Imperial, LSE and St. Gallen abroad. A single GRE result covers both business and non-business programs, so applicants from Milan weighing multiple types of graduate programs often start their test prep here.

It is also the part of your application you can still change. Bocconi accepts the GRE outright and at POLIMI Graduate School of Management applicants who submit a strong score improve their chances of being accepted. That number also travels further than your transcript: an admissions office at Imperial College London or St. Gallen has no reliable way to read an Italian laurea, so the GRE becomes the one figure on your file that means the same thing to every reader, and a strong Quantitative score is often the clearest evidence a law or humanities graduate can offer a quantitative master's. Turning that into points is the harder part: the GRE is a section-adaptive test that rewards pacing, elimination and pattern recognition far more than the knowledge your degree already gave you, which is why most candidates reach a ceiling studying on their own.

Which Other Universities in Milan Accept the GRE?

Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, the largest private university in Europe, accepts the GRE across. The score isn't a direct requirement, but the school states plainly that a good GRE result will help your application, and every candidate who clears the entry requirements is then invited to an online interview with the admissions committee.

That is worth knowing if your transcript sits in the middle of the pile. At Cattolica the GRE is not a hurdle to clear but a lever you choose to pull, and it reaches the committee before you ever speak to them. Taken together with Bocconi and POLIMI, it means a single GRE score can support applications to all three of Milan's major graduate destinations at once — prepared once, used everywhere.

Why Prepare for the GRE in Milan With EPIC Prep?

When you apply to a graduate program from Milan, you're not competing against other applicants from your own university — you're up against candidates from all over the world. Your degree may give you a strong academic foundation, but it doesn't train you for the reasoning style, pacing and traps specific to the GRE. What you can control is your score, with the right plan — which is why EPIC Prep in Milan built its course around individual, personalized tutoring rather than the group instruction most GRE programs default to. Sessions are built around your schedule, not the other way around, so preparing for the GRE fits alongside a full course load or a full-time job. Where a small group suits you better, we keep it intentionally small, so the standard of attention doesn't change.

That's the difference between preparing alone or with a general tutor, and preparing with a team that has worked exclusively on the GRE since 2010: your own native English-speaking tutor, exclusive content built specifically for this exam, and PrepDrills, our data-driven practice platform tracking every question you answer and adjusting your plan as you improve — so instead of a fixed syllabus, you're working toward the exact score your target university expects, whether that's 300 or 320+.

EPIC Prep Milan is an academy that specializes in the GRE. Every course starts with a diagnostic assessment — your starting level, your target score and your exam date — before we design your plan around expert tutors, exclusive materials and the EPIC Prep Methodology.

GRE Frequently Asked Questions About the GRE Course in Milan

Below you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions that students and applicants in Milan often ask for graduate programs about the GRE. 

Whether you are considering applying to master’s, MBA or doctoral programs in Milan specifically or expanding to Europe, the United States or other international academic destinations, understanding how the GRE works is a critical step in designing a solid and well-planned admissions strategy.

In Milan, the GRE General Test is offered at ETS-authorized test centers and with the at home online format. Availability of dates depends on the center and the period, so check the official ETS system for current appointments. 

In Milan, Bocconi University and SDA Bocconi (its graduate business school) both accept the GRE, and POLIMI Graduate School of Management considers it as an optional, recommended addition to its own admissions test.

Beyond Milan, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore and LUISS Business School in Rome also accept the GRE among other schools. 

SDA Bocconi doesn’t publish an official minimum GRE score, but candidates are encouraged to score above 160 in both the Verbal and Quantitative sections. Your score is weighed alongside your profile, essays and interview rather than used as a standalone cutoff, so a strong application can offset a lower score.

Yes — POLIMI Graduate School of Management accepts a GRE or GMAT score as an optional part of its International Full-Time MBA application, describing it as “optional but highly recommended.” Candidates also complete the school’s own POLIMI GSoM Test regardless of whether they submit a test score, so a GRE result adds to your file rather than replacing that step.

Yes. INSEAD, London Business School, HEC Paris (which suggests GRE sections at or above the 65th percentile), Imperial, the University of St. Gallen and SDA Bocconi all accept the GRE as well as the GMAT, weighing the two tests equally for admission. St. Gallen is one of the closest top business schools to Milan, making it a common target alongside the London and Paris routes for Milan-based applicants. The one exception on this list is LSE, which states a preference for the GMAT specifically for its MSc Finance.

No school publishes a hard cutoff, but the ranges are clear: INSEAD’s class averages about 160 Verbal and 163 Quantitative, London Business School prefers 160+ in both sections, Imperial’s Full-Time MBA sets a floor of 156 Verbal and 158 Quantitative, and St. Gallen — the closest of these schools to Milan — accepts the GRE for both its MBA and SIM. EPIC Prep’s Milan-based tutors build your study plan around whichever range matches your target school. A strong GRE supports your file but never guarantees admission alone.
