DEADLINES TO APPLY FOR PRE-ENROLLMENT FOR A.Y. 2021/22
Pre-enrolment applications are open from April 16th until July 30th, 2021*.
If you do not submit your pre-enrollment application within this deadline you will not be able to complete the enrolment procedure at Politecnico di Torino.
Politecnico di Torino will validate your pre-enrolment application ONLY once:
  • the SAT/GRE/GMAT certification you submitted get approved by Politecnico di Torino and therefore you have been exempted from taking the TIL-I test (article 14 of the Call for admissions)
OR
  • you get a TIL-I -D -P score higher than or equal to the guaranteed threshold (60/100) which enable applicants to enrol immediately in the programme of first preference
OR
  • you get a TIL-I score higher than or equal to the guaranteed threshold (30/100) for the admission to any Bachelor’s degree programme of the Engineering area. Please note that with this score you have to wait for the ranking list in order to know in which programme you can enrol. This ranking list will be published on Tuesday 7 th September 2021
OR
  • you pass the TIL-A (Architettura-Architecture) and you are ASSEGNATO in the ranking published on Friday 30th July 2021. If you are ASSEGNATO you must enrol online within Tuesday 3 August 2021 at 12:00 noon as explained in the specific Call for admission.
N.B. In case your score in TIL-I -D -P is higher than or equal to the minimum threshold (20/100) you can decide to wait until the 7th September 2021, when the ranking list will be published. You will then verify if you are conveniently placed in the ranking list in order to enrol. Alternatively, you can take the TIL-I again in one or more subsequent sessions. In this case the score obtained in the latest test invalidates the score obtained in previous tests. The Confirmation of eligibility will be available when the ranking list is published and only in case you will be ASSIGNED a place.
Once the validation is done, you will receive a notification by Universitaly. Moreover you will be able to check the date of validation in the MAIN section of your PoliTO application as well. For those reasons, we kindly ask you not to send tickets for information about the validation of your pre-enrolment.
