IED and Accademia Galli assign students to household income brackets, taking into account the following indicators included in their University ISEE statements:
• Income Situation Indicator (ISR);
• Capital Situation Indicator (ISP);
• Economic Situation Indicator (ESI).
When assigning students to income brackets, a deduction of €10,000 is applied to the calculated income for each child (beginning from the third child) who belongs to the student's household.
This continues until the limit of the preceding household income bracket is reached. Household income brackets are calculated by taking into account a household’s income, assets, and economic situation, in addition to the student’s income, if any.
