The Alta Scuola Politecnica (ASP) is a school in Italy which selects 150 students per year, among the applicants to the Master of Science — MSc (The Laurea Magistrale) programs in Engineering, Architecture and Design at Politecnico di Milano (PoliMi) and Politecnico di Torino (PoliTo). The ASP program runs parallel to the MSc programs of the two institutions. The official ASP language is English.

Students who wish to be admitted to the ASP must submit their application after the publication of an official call issued by the ASP, unless directly invited to apply by ASP on the basis of their student record provided by offices of the Universities (Politecnico di Milano and Politecnico di Torino), in which case special rules apply.

The call is opened to all students who have obtained a Laurea or an equivalent title (i.e., a Bachelor or a university programme consisting in at least 3 years of study after secondary education), have average marks of 27/30, and can demonstrate a good knowledge of the English language.

Students who have not obtained a Laurea when the call is issued can apply, provided the title is achieved before the limit date for enrolment in a MSc course (October 31^st).

Candidates are selected by an Evaluation Committee, specifically appointed by the Director of the ASP. The Evaluation Committee grades the students on the basis of their curriculum of studies, a motivation letter, their proficiency in the English language and other extra-curricular achievements. Typically, candidates are also interviewed. For candidates living abroad, the interview will take place on the phone.

In parallel with their application to the ASP, candidates must submit their application to the MSc course they have chosen either at the Politecnico di Milano or at the Politecnico di Torino.

The ASP selects about 150 promising students each year. A number of places is reserved to foreign talented students (EU and extra-EU) and to Italian students not graduated in the Regions of Lombardy and Piedmont.

All ASP foreign students must be accepted by one of the MSc programs of Politecnico di Milano or Politecnico di Torino, therefore they should first apply to their elective MSc program.

Foreign students will receive a scholarship covering accommodation costs plus a tuition fee waiver covering the costs of the M.Sc. programme they will be admitted to.
