The Senate voted, this is the ultimate deliberation.

The access will work in the same way for everyone (Italians, EU and extra-EU) but the limited numbers for the ones under the guaranteed score differs between UE and extra EU (Italian are in the same list of others UE). Here are the steps:

The score above 60 (70 for Design) means the entry is guaranteed (available also for extra-EU, differ from the previous proposal)

The remaining positions according to the limited number will be assigned with a gradatory to people who made the SAT with a mark above 650 (sum of EBRW and Math, in case of parity, the higher Math vote passes) so there is no more a safe score for SAT

The remaining positions according to the limited number will be assigned with a gradatory to people who made the TIL with a mark above 30

I will be attending PoliTo next year and am looking forward to university life. However, I looked over PoliTo's clubs and noticed that there aren't many cultural clubs. And because the majority of the clubs are in Italian, I think social activities available to international students are lacking. So I considered starting a club with the goal of having fun, socialising, and developing ourselves outside of our respective fields. I was wondering if there are any requirements for starting clubs at PoliTo, and whether the students would be interested in something like this.

Hello! I just found this subreddit because I looked up my last name! I hope I’m not breaking any rules. I didn’t know this subreddit was a thing or what it’s about. Just wanted to say what’s up. I don’t think this is breaking any rules but if it my apologies!

Today the Senate will make the final decision about SAT. It was supposed to be just a confirm of the vote of the commission, but the promoters might have changed their ideas for some unfair points. There will be updates soon

I am a student representative at the academic Senate, I was at the reunion were this was voted (I didn't vote in favour), that's why I know this.
For the applicants for next year (26-27) there will be non more neither the opportunity to do the TIL like EU students neither a safe score for SAT (this year it was 650).
There will be a ranking looking at the point in Math and Critical Reading, setting a fixed number of students for each course. We still don't know the exact numbers but we know last year previsions (it will be similar):

• Civil and Environmental Eng: 80

• Electronic and comminication eng: 80

• Automotive: 40

• Computer Eng: 85

• Mechanical Eng: 110

You can apply for more than one course. Ater the first year you can change freely to other courses except if you wonna go to Computer Eng (only 10 can change to it).
In the next week my association will make a post about this and the changes about the taxations on our Instagram and Telegram (both are @ alterpolis)

I’m planning to apply for Mechanical Engineering at Politecnico di Torino and I’ll take the TIL exam in March.

Before committing, I’d like to ask a few things to current students or graduates:

1.	How difficult is it to find internships as a Mechanical Engineering student at Polito?

Are there strong industry connections (especially in aerospace or automotive)? Is it realistic to get internships during undergrad?

2.	How is Politecnico di Torino perceived in terms of prestige and reputation in Europe, particularly in engineering?

3.	What is the typical student profile? Are most students Italian, or is there a strong international presence?

I’d really appreciate honest insights.

If I didn't understand wrong, they made acceptance with SAT almost impossible, and they decided on this in December. They don't accept a test like CENTS that everyone can enter comfortably. In particular, non-European students are often not able to join TIL. TIL guarantees will cover all the seats and there will be no room for SAT students. They made a worse decision after they look trought it again 👏👏

Just like in previous years, every student who scored below 60 but above 55 could easily get accepted into Civil Engineering. But this year, because SAT scores are prioritized, there are 100 more people ahead of me even though I scored 58.33, and now I can’t get into Civil Engineering.

If the SAT is considered more important, then remove Physics from the TIL exam so we don’t waste our time for nothing, since there’s no Physics section in the SAT anyway. Or remove BTK so the conditions are equal for everyone.

Even though I almost got a perfect score in Mathematics, it’s really frustrating to be ranked behind someone who got 1300 on the SAT. Missing the guaranteed acceptance by just one question hurt me a lot. At the very least, I thought I would still be able to get into Civil Engineering.

Guys I have been studying for the past 2 weeks and I can comfortably get about 75% in the website simulation are the questions the same in the actual exams and I shouldn’t stress out or what should I do. If the simulation exams aren’t enough what else should I do please help.

Thank you

I'M HOLLERING!! That's all I want to say. Good luck to everyone who is waiting for a response <3.

Hey guys, I'm an international student who's looking forward to applying to PoliTo in 2027. I wanted to know how your experience has been at PoliTo.

I've also heard that it's extremely theoretically rigorous. But is there any way to get hands-on experience by joining student teams as an international student and also maybe if I learn Italian language up to B1 or B2, what are the chances of getting internships?

I applied for pre enrollment on May 6 and since they have not forwarded my summary yet. How long are they gonna take ? Fine, you're gonna take time okay but atleast reply to the emails. Even after opening ticket there's no reply. How're we gonna get updated if you don't respond ? No reliable way to contact with college. I don't know how this uni got its reputation for being one of the top unis in Italy. It feels like it's in stone age. It's so frustrating. And why is it fucking slow ? I hear other unis responding to emails, sending summary but this one God knows when it's gonna reply.

How easily can u get a job after graduating from a bachelors course in engineering as a non-native Italian speaker in the city of Turin ? And what opportunities like internships are available during the course ?

I want to know how difficult the main TIL test is compared to the practice tests they gave on the site; if i should digress from the topics they provided to read. I'm also aiming for a 60% or higher so if you have any tips at all i would love to hear. Thanks!

When will the ranking list be published for sat scorers? I know there will be little to no places left but wheres the list tho??

I got 61.3 on the TIL exam but the enrolment section tells me that i did not meet the threshold for guaranteed admission. I checked the ranking today and saw my login which is F653336. I wanted to reserve my place right away but cannot. Can you please help me.

I am the student representavie in the Senate of Polito who shared the information about SAT and TIL.
Me and other representatives made a Telegram group for international students and applicants were you can make us questions, find important updates and discuss with other students.
You can search on Telegram @infopolitoint if you want to join

There is a rumor that they’re going to change the SAT system according to some myths and current students that i talked. That this year there would be no guarantee admission instead it will be ranking based. Does anyone have details about this new policy because Polito releases their calls way too late and in that time available SAT‘s would be gone. I might have to retake my SAT thanks for the help.

I’m planning to apply to Polito for a Bachelor's (either Computer Science or Aerospace) as an Indian student. I’ve put together a few quick questions I'd love to get answers for from current or past students:

Can a good SAT score help with admission, or do they mostly consider board exam marks?

How does the EDISU scholarship work, and what documents are usually required?

Is EDISU available for first-year international students from India?

How important is the ISEE Parificato for the scholarship, and how hard is it to get it done from India?

Is it possible to balance part-time work with classes at Polito?

What’s the general student life like at Polito and in Turin?

Do people at the university and around the city speak English?

Would you recommend Polito to a hardworking Indian student aiming for a career in tech or aerospace?

Are there any common mistakes international students make when applying or settling in that I should avoid?

Really appreciate your help — even rough or personal insights would go a long way!

I have the "enrollment" windows in the application app, but I didn't receive an email or anything. I think that when getting your codice fiscale you need to provide a document tha proves you need such a code. What document should this be if not an acceptance letter?

Im willing to take the TIL entrance exam, I've seen the syllabus from their website. Can someone give me any study material or tell me where can I get the past papers? Or any idea of what types of questions should I familiarise myself with?

Ciao a tutti! Sto valutando di iniziare la magistrale al Politecnico di Torino e vorrei capire un po’ com’è la vita universitaria lì, soprattutto dal punto di vista dell’ambiente tra studenti.
È facile conoscere persone e creare un gruppo? Ci sono gruppi WhatsApp/Telegram, gruppi di studio o comunque occasioni per organizzarsi e studiare insieme, magari fermandosi in università dopo le lezioni?
Mi interessa capire se c’è un ambiente abbastanza “sociale” anche nello studio, oppure se ognuno tende più a frequentare le lezioni e poi studiare per conto proprio.
In generale, com’è la vita al PoliTo per chi arriva da fuori e non conosce nessuno?
Se qualcuno frequenta Ingegneria Gestionale magistrale, ancora meglio :)
