Why is it masculine?

Studenti is masculine because it ends in "-e", which is a common masculine ending for Italian nouns. It derives from Latin "studens" (present participle of "studere"), and Italian preserved the masculine gender from the Latin form. The feminine form "studentessa" was created by adding the feminine suffix "-essa" to the masculine base.
