(*) MERIT RANKING LIST AND ALLOCATION OF COURSES WITH RESIDUAL SEATS

The ranking list is created on the basis of students’ scores. Every student is assigned a score, which is calculated by multiplying the number of credits by the grade obtained in the exam. Pass-or-fail exams (without a grade) will be assigned the average grade of the other exams. The sum of these products is divided by the number of semesters (starting from the first semester of enrolment in the university system). In case of credits deriving from other careers, the semesters will be calculated as follows: number of validated credits divided by standard time (1 semester = 30 credits).
For the creation of the ranking list Politecnico takes into account the exams passed by every student before 28^th July 2017.  

Second allocation of courses
If, for any reason, you haven’t chosen your Optional courses  before the deadline, you will be offered the possibility to choose a single preference among the courses with residual seats.
