You cannot register for multiple test dates at the same time.
If you have registered for the test, you can register anew only after the date of the test you have previously registered for.

To register for the TOL,  you have to register to the Politecnico di Milano’s Online Services. Once you have received your person code and password, log in to your personal account and go to: "3-year Laurea programmes (eq. to BSc) and 5-year single cycle programmes (eq. to Integrated MSc): entrance or catch-up tests and enrolment" > "Register for the Test", then choose > TOL-Ingegneria, and follow the online process.

For each test date you can see in real time the dates, test times, the remaining available places and the time periods when you can register. 

If you register for a test and do not show up, you will be considered absent and the test will be considered equivalent to taking it for the purposes of repeatability.

If you are an Italian student with an foreign qualification, you must follow the same enrolment procedure as Italian students: in addition, however, you will have to submit some additional documents to the International Students Office
