VISA FOR STUDY PURPOSES In order to study at Politecnico, non EU citizens need to get the Italian Visa for Study Purposes from the Italian Embassy of your country of residence. To this end, the Office of Specializing Master's Programmes and Lifelong Learning needs to send a copy of your invitation letter to the Italian Mission (embassy or consulate) that you will contact for visa application.
The Office of Specializing Master's Programmes and Lifelong Learning will fornish you with the invitation letter needful to issue your Italian Visa for Study Purposes just in case you will be admitted according to the selection outcomes.
Upon enrolment, all admitted applicants who hold a degree from a non-Italian university, must submit the original copy of the “Dichiarazione di Valore” (Statement of validity), issued by the Italian Diplomatic Mission in the country where the qualification was awarded or Statement of Comparability issued by the CIMEA Center.
Participants with a Master's degree awarded by a European university can submit the “Diploma Supplement” instead of the “Dichiarazione di Valore”/Statement of validity.
Participants with a non-Italian degree who do not submit their “Statement of validity”, can enrol in the programme with “condition”, but they must present this document within 6 months from the beginning of the programme.Participants who do not provide the above-mentioned mandatory document by the deadline are placed on a hold and cannot progress in their studies until the document is presented.
The Dichiarazione di valore will be kept by the Politecnico and will be returned to the student upon the conclusion of the programme. If necessary, it can be given back to the student for a short period of time, with the prior deposit of a certified copy of the document.
If the student runs into considerable difficulties regarding the "Dichiarazione di valore", he/she must communicate such difficulties as soon as they arise to the Office of Specializing Masters Programmes and Lifelong Learning (master.universitari@polito.it), specifying the problem and the contact telephone numbers and e-mail of the Italian Diplomatic Mission. The office will contact the relevant Italian Diplomatic Mission in order to try to speed up the process to release the required document.
Those who arrive in Italy without the "Dichiarazione di valore" and without having previously communicated the situation to the Office of Specializing Masters Programmes and Lifelong Learning will NOT be able to enrol at Politecnico di Torino.
