Politecnico di Milano
Elite concierge is our paid tier: we prepare the full file, lodge it with you and chase it to the offer. Fees are quoted in writing before you pay.
Italian public universities set tuition by FAMILY INCOME, assessed through a document called the ISEE, and award need-based grants on the same basis. A family that files it correctly can pay very little; a family that does not file it is charged the top band. We prepare the ISEE with you — it is the single most valuable thing we do on an Italian application, and it has a deadline of its own.
Programs
Indicative tuition, $5,000 a year — the university's own estimate, the same across these programmes until we read each page individually.
Arts & Design
Engineering & Technology
Admission requirements
Academic entry
- High school diploma / A-Levels
- Bachelor's degree (2:1 or equivalent)
Requirements are indicative and vary by program, we verify your exact case when we prepare your application.
What it costs, what it asks for
Politecnico di Milano in detail
What you need
- Entry
- Italy requires twelve years of schooling, so an eleven-year certificate needs a bridging year or one year of university at home before it is accepted. Admission runs through Universitaly and the Italian consulate on a fixed annual calendar — we work backwards from the pre-enrolment date, not from the university's own deadline.
- English
- IELTS 5 for English-taught degrees, accepting Academic and General Training alike — the lowest IELTS bar of any Italian route we hold. TOEFL is accepted at iBT 59, printed alongside a "3.5" on the new band scale, so confirm which scale your certificate uses. Cambridge B2 First grade C and Trinity ISE II also accepted. Neither PTE nor Duolingo appears on the university's table. Engineering and Design require the certificate BEFORE enrolment; Architecture lets you enrol carrying an English debt

Funding options
Scholarships and sponsorships that can fund your studies here, based on your citizenship.
Politecnico di Milano's own funding
Decided by the university, usually alongside your admission.
We have not yet recorded Politecnico di Milano’s own aid policy for international students at this level — so we are not going to guess at one. Ask us and we will read their financial-aid pages with you before you build a plan around it. Many universities at this rank do award their own merit money; that is a general truth, not a fact about Politecnico di Milano.
Funding that follows you
Awarded to you as a citizen, and usable at any university in this index — including this one.
Uzbekistan's flagship government scholarship, funding citizens for Bachelor's, Master's and PhD study at leading foreign universities. Covers full tuition, a monthly living stipend and travel.

Funding from the destination
Government scholarships for studying in this country.
Italy's regional student-welfare system, and the strongest value in Europe for a family on a modest income. Assessment is based mainly on documented family income rather than pure academic competition, which is what makes it winnable. For a qualifying student it waives tuition entirely, provides university accommodation and one canteen meal a day, and pays a yearly cash stipend in the region of EUR 6,500-7,200. Italy requires a school qualification from 12 years of study, so an 11-year certificate needs a completed foundation year first - a Malaysian foundation certificate, submitted with its exam results and credits, is the standard bridge.
Window Each region publishes its own call — for 2026/27 they opened in June-July and closed between late July and early September, all before the October start. The deadline falls BEFORE departure, so this is applied for from home, not after arrival. Check the exact date for the region of the university, and note pre-enrolment via Universitaly runs separately in the spring
