When to sit the TOLC test

Students must take the TOLC test before matriculation and can take it before obtaining the upper secondary school leaving qualification.

 

To know the test dates, please consult the tests timetable. The timetables are constantly updated.

 

Students can take the TOLC test also on different dates organized by other Universities.

 

Registration for the test is possible until available places are left, therefore take the TOLC test as soon as possible.

How to register for the TOLC test

In order to enrol in the TOLC test, you must register on the CISIA website. During the enrolment, you can choose the TOLC test you want to take, the location and the date among the available ones.

 

In order to enrol in the TOLC test, it is expected – from CISIA – a payment of a 30 € fee.

 

In order to enrol in the a.y. 2022-2023, the valid TOLC tests are those which have been taken from 1st January 2021 – the type requested by each study course – in both modalities: TOLC at the University (in presence) or TOLC@CASA (at a distance).

 

You can take the same TOLC test more than once, but not more than once a month. If you repeat the TOLC test more than once, the last test taken will be considered valid (and not the one with the best score obtained)

Exemption from the TARM test

The exemption from taking the TARM test is for students who:

  • take an admission test in order to enrol in a course with a restricted number of places (test in presence at the University of Turin or TOLC test) and show to be enrolled in a UniTo admission test (the admission test refers to the procedure that must be applied, expected and described in the call for admission  of the study course)
  • change from a study course to another in UniTo
  • transfer to UniTo from another University
  • already hold a university degree and enrol with career shortening.

 

Students who are exempted from the TARM test (first 3 points), if admitted at the first year, will be given the OFAs established by the destination study courses, apart from students who already have taken the same TOLC test, as foreseen by the destination course, and have obtained a score higher than the one fixed by the destination course for the OFA.

 

For the last point, no OFAs are expected.
