Transfers from other universities to Politecnico

If you are enrolled in a Bachelor’s degree programme at another Italian University and you intend to continue your studies at Politecnico di Torino, you are required to sit the admission test (even if you come from a degree programme of the same class) and to conveniently place yourself in the ranking list.


You should decide whether to start the transfer procedure (“congedo”) at your University of origin. This option is useful only if you have already passed some exams for which you intend to request the recognition at Politecnico di Torino.


If you have not taken any exam yet, we suggest you to choose the “withdrawal from studies” option. This will allow you to start a brand new academic career at Politecnico di Torino.


We remind you that:

  • the legislation on univerisity studies prohibits the possibility to be simultaneously enrolled at more than one Italian or foreign university.
  • students who come from another university must gain a minimum of 60 credits including the Final Project at Politecnico di Torino in order to be able to graduate. 
 Admission test:



Language requirements:

If you want to transfer from another university to a Bachelor’s degree programme at Politecnico di Torino, you have to meet the admission language requirements listed in this table.
We remind you that any English language graded exam or any pass-or-fail examination that you might have passed while studying at another university are not equivalent to the IELTS 5.0 certificate.





 Please note that there is no informal evaluation of  previous academic career.

Deadline: 14th  October 2016  

How to request a transfer:

8. start the transfer out procedure at your university of origin
9. when you confirm your will to enrol, your previous academic records will be sent to the Programme academic coordinator (referente cds) for a possible credit recognition;

11. when the transfer procedure has come to an end, you will be able to enrol in the programme, using the dedicated link available on your Apply personal page, under the section "Valutazioni"/"Evaluations".

Transfer is allowed between Italian universities only. If you come from a foreign university, you must contact the Mobility Office - Incoming


Definition of the Personal Study Plan / Annual Personal Study Plan
You need to define your PSP/APSP within 10 days from the date of enrolment.



How to update your Annual Personal Study Plan
When you complete your transfer, you can insert in your Annual Personal Study Plan some courses belonging to years following the first. This is possible only if at least 40 credits (excluding the English language exam) are recognized and validated, or if the barrier exams are recognized and validated. In any case, first of all you will have to insert first-year courses that are still pending.
