Internal transfers – Bachelor’s
degree courses
In order to be allowed to move to another degree programme and/or system
you must meet certain requirements which might be different according to the
programme/system of origin and destination.
We also remind you that you cannot apply for an internal transfer during
the year of first enrolment; moreover, you cannot withdraw from studies to
enrol again in a new programme during the same year.
You are allowed to transfer from a
degree programme taught in Italian to one taught in English, or vice versa:
- only one time during your academic career;
·
- only if you have not included second-year
courses in your new Annual Personal Study Plan (this applies also to continuing
students who are enrolled in years following the first)
If you are regularly enrolled at Politecnico di Torino and you intend to
transfer to another degree programme, you must meet the language requirements
for admission to Bachelor’s degree programmes listed in this
table.
The admissions test is compulsory in the following cases:
- if you transfer to another Bachelor’s
degree programme of the Architecture area;
- when you come from a Bachelor’s degree
programme belonging to the system pre-dating Ministerial Decree No.
509/99, regardless of the number of credits you have already earned;
- if you come from a Bachelor’s degree
programme of the Engineering area.
If
you want to make an internal transfer to a Bachelor’s degree programme of the
Architecture Area, from system D.M.509/99
to system 270/04 (from class 4 to class L-17),
you are not required to sit the admissions test if, after the evaluation of your previous academic
records,
you are declared eligible for
admission to years following first year, within the limit of available
places.
You
are
strongly encouraged to take the admissions test in any case.
If fact, if
the evaluation of your previous academic records is not sufficient to grant you
the admission to the second year, you will have the opportunity to conveniently
place yourself in the ranking list (created after the admissions test) and
therefore you might have the chance to make an internal transfer to this
programme.
You can be admitted to the second year of this
programme if you have been recognized at least 40 credits, excluding the
English exam, or if you have been recognized the barrier exams. The fee paid for registering for
the admissions test will be discounted from your tuition fees if you decide to
enrol in the programme; otherwise, it will not be refunded.
The
internal transfer application must be
submitted within the deadlines of the Academic calendar and according to the
procedure illustrated below,
even if you
are not required to sit the admissions test.
The internal transfer application must be submitted following the
instructions and within the deadlines indicated in the academic calendar.
How to apply for an internal transfer:
We
remind you that you MUST NOT prepare your Annual Personal Study Plan for the
new academic year.
You MUST:
- log into the “Apply” section on your
personal page of the Teaching Portal;
- select the desired degree programme
using the button named “Scegli percorso/ select your programme”
- confirm your data and submit the internal
transfer application;
- take the admissions test (the result will
be available on your “Apply” personal page)
- if you pass the admissions test, pay the
first instalment of your tuition fees (200,00 Euro) in order to confirm your
transfer to the new Bachelor’s degree programme. Your payment must be made
within the deadlines for enrolment indicated in the Orientation Guide.
If you are still waiting
for some grades to be recorded (for exams taken in the September session), you must
wait
until all exam grades are recorded before you can confirm your internal
transfer. The Teaching Committee of the degree programme will evaluate your
previous academic records and possibly validate your credits.
You can check the result of the evaluation in the section named “Valutazioni”/
“Evaluations” available on your “Apply” personal page and then decide if
you want to accept or reject the internal transfer resolution.
After accepting the internal transfer resolution, and in any case within
10 days of the date of acceptance, you need to enrol for the new academic year
and prepare your Personal Study Plan/ Annual Personal Study Plan,
following the procedures illustrated in the section named “
Iscrizione ad anni
successivi al primo: piano carriera e carico didattico”/ Continuing students – enrolling for years after the first: PSP and APSP
The
cost of the internal transfer application (50 Euro) will be charged only if,
after seeing the results of the evaluation of previous academic records, you
decide
not to confirm the internal transfer.
How to update your Annual Personal Study Plan
After
an internal transfer, you will be able to add to your Annual Personal Study
Plan some courses belonging to years following the first. This is possible only
if you have obtained the validation of at least 40 credits (excluding the
English language exam) or the validation of the barrier exams (see the chapter
named “
Unfulfilled
academic requirements and APSP update". In any case, first
of all, you will have to include first-year courses that are still pending.
