You must prove to have a good knowledge of the English language (equivalent to level B2 CEFR) which can be certified by one of the here mentioned accepted language certificates.

You are exempted from having one of the above-listed certificates if, within the deadline for applications, you provide a stamped declaration/certificate written on official letter headed paper, which certifies that:

1. you have attended at least one school year at a high school in which the medium of instruction is English. In this case the school must issue a certificate stating that “The medium of instruction is English”.
2. you have a foreign high school diploma which is recognized by the Italian Ministry of Education and Research as equivalent to the Italian high school diploma (diploma di maturità), or you have a higher qualification awarded by a higher education institution in which the medium of instruction is English. In both cases the school must issue a certificate stating that “The medium of instruction is English”.

With regard to points “a” and “b”, please note that diplomas awarded by high schools in the USA, UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand do not need to include the phrase “The medium of instruction is English”.

The Selection Committee will assess the level of the knowledge of the English language during the oral interview, also remotely, if the applicant does not have one of the required English language certificates.

The Selection Committee is in charge to decide if an applicant can have a remote interview when he/she cannot attend the interview in presence at Politecnico di Torino. The decision of the Selection Committee is unquestionable.

Applicants are required to prove their identity before the interview starts by showing an identification document via skype.
