Before enrolling
Admission Requirements
The self-assessment test is mandatory, but it does not limit the number of students who may enrol.
Admission to the Bachelor’s degree
Self-assessment test (TOLC)
Admission to the Degree Programme requires a mandatory but non-selective self-assessment test. Students who do not pass the test are assigned Additional Learning Requirements, known in Italian as Obblighi Formativi Aggiuntivi (OFA).
Admission requirements are established by the Engineering Board of the Polytechnic and Basic Sciences School in a coordinated manner for all Degree Programmes in the Engineering Education Area. The test is prepared by the CISIA Interuniversity Consortium according to nationally agreed procedures and consists of multiple-choice questions on Mathematics, Science, Logic and Reading Comprehension.
The test may be taken in person or online, according to the format selected by the student. Several sessions are held between February and October each year.
