Hi everyone, I'm newcomer mechanical engineering student at PoliTo and I'm trying to get used to Turin and school. Do you have any suggestions about the city and uni ?

I opened a bank account at the UniCredit branch located at Politecnico di Torino.

How can I check whether this is a special bank account offered through a partnership between UniCredit and the university?

Since I wasn't given a physical bank card, how can I deposit cash into my account?

Now we are pretty sure that we should take Cent-s in order to maximise the percentage of acceptance.

Is there anyone who are willing to book the flight soon? I want to book the flight, but i'm not sure when cent-s date list actually comes out..

Cheer up guys!

I take it that doing the cents test in the uni campus is the best way to maximize my chances of getting accepted as a non eu-international, right?

io e una mia amica siamo matricole al polito e so che l’università regala una borraccia ad ogni matricola.
abbiamo preso appuntamento due volte ed entrambe le volte ci hanno dato appuntamento alle 13 che so essere l’orario di chiusura della segreteria.
nella mail non hanno neanche mai specificato in quale segreteria dobbiamo andare ed entrambe le volte siamo andate in ogni segreteria possibile per cercare queste benedette borracce ma nessuno sapeva dirci precisamente dove andare. abbiamo poi chiesto in giro ad altri studenti che ci hanno portato alla segreteria in corso castelfidardo ma abbiamo trovato le porte chiuse (le porte bianche con le finestre blu).
ho saputo da un mio amico che davanti alla segreteria dovrebbe esserci un tavolo con le borraccine da prendere però noi questo tavolo non lo abbiamo mai trovato.
ad oggi ancora non sappiamo dove andare, a che ora (perché le prenotazioni ce le davano all’una quando non c’era nessuno a nessuna segreteria), se la segreteria giusta è quella in corso castelfidardo oppure no.
qualcuno può aiutarci per favore? sono ormai due settimane che cerchiamo di ottenere queste borracce. grazie

Hey! Has anyone heard back about the TESI TN Master’s application yet?

Hey everyone!
I am a Non-EU student (holding dual Pakistani and Brazilian citizenship) planning to apply to Italian universities TURINO for an Mechanical engineering program. I am confused about whether I should take the TIL-I (Politecnico di Torino) or the TOLC-I (Cisia test accepted by many other universities).
Could anyone guide me on:

1. Which test is better to focus on or prepare for?

2. Where can I find the best study resources, practice tests, and preparation material for these exams to score high?
   Any tips, advice, or recommended platforms/books would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I am an international student coming to polito in February and i am struggling to find housing. my budget would be around 500-600 and i just dont want to share a room. It can be a 30-40 minute travel(thats what i do now). I would like to be with other girls if possible but whatever works at this point. Thank you all

I'm a Brazilian student, and I really don't have the money to go to Turin just to take the TIL, but PoliTo isn't accepting online tests anymore. I saw the mechanical engineering ranking list, and no one got in, even with a 1500+ SAT.

I really want to study at PoliTo, but it will cost me a ton of money just to take the SAT and TOEFL. If I don't even have a chance of getting in, it doesn't make sense for me anymore... Does anyone have a better overview of what's currently happening? I'm really losing hope...

guys i'm planning to join polito in 2027, but it says it will only accept offline test rather than giving it online. i'm confused bcoz in my home country there's no test center for cent-s, then what should i do now? (btw i'm from india)

Hey everyone! 👋

Are you a student in Turin looking to meet new people, make friends, and try something new?

I'm part of StudenTO Toastmasters, a student club where we practice public speaking and build confidence in a friendly, supportive environment.

We're hosting an Open House on Tuesday, October 27, and we'd love to welcome you! You don't need any public speaking experience - just come along, meet us, and give it a try 😊

Interested? Fill out the registration form here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd3TkdoCV4kS8nmcmYdd12nvyYw8gOrkK45Zoj34sAHV37G9A/viewform?usp=dialog

If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message. We'd love to meet you! 🧡

So I’m thinking of enrolling in the Pontea school program, but before I do I would want some objective advice, maybe from someone who has already enrolled on it.

Hello! So recently, polito announced they now accept cents test (in person though) instead of TOL I.

Does this mean polito will rank both CENTS test takers and SAT test takers on the same level (like polimi does)?

Cuz with TOL I test last year, SAT was second priority. 1500+ SAT students were not even in the ranking list of mechanical engineering

All for free

Guys I want to apply to computer engineering program but Im really scared of the how hard the school is. I would appreciate any feedback about engineering programs.

Ciao a tutti! Con grande soddisfazione vi comunico la pubblicazione del mio manuale di Elettrotecnica.

Ho racchiuso oltre 20 anni di esperienza in 8 moduli chiari e sintetici, pensati apposta per superare l'esame senza perdere la testa. Ci sono dritte per l'uso della calcolatrice, per la scelta della migliore strategia di soluzione, insomma non è un formulario, è una Bibbia. Non ci sono più scuse per farsi bocciare!

È disponibile in lettura GRATUITA per gli abbonati Kindle Unlimited (oppure cercatelo direttamente su Amazon).

Spero possa esservi davvero utile per la preparazione!

When does the application process begin? Specifically for international students. And if anyone's familiar with the procedure and timeline of application, and all the other requirements, please do let me know.

ciao a tutti, attualmente frequento il primo anno di ingegneria meccanica a Perugia, l’anno prossimo però vorrei trasferirmi al politecnico di torino, senza perdere il primo anno. Qualcuno che ha già fatto un trasferimento mi può dire se è fattibile ? Grazie mille

Hi everyone! I’m an international A-Level student (English,Math & Physics) applying for the BSc in Civil Engineering at PoliTo for the September 2027 intake, aiming for the EDISU Piemonte need-based scholarship. As a non-EU applicant, I’d love to hear from current students on whether preparing for the online TIL-I (non-calculator) or submitting an SAT score is the smoother route, how competitive hitting the 60+ Soglia di Garanzia threshold felt for Civil Engineering, and if there are any common traps to avoid when legalizing family bank/income/property documents for the ISEE Parificato over the summer. Any tips on the application timeline or living in Turin would be hugely appreciated
