How to request a housing place
Housing places will be assigned through a call opens to students, who meet certain merit and income requirements. Detailed information (requirements, procedures, deadline deadlines, etc.) can be found in the Notice of Competition. Students who are beneficiaries in the final housing ranking are assigned a housing place at the subsidized rate. This rate is established annually by the Lombardy Region and will be published as a supplement to the Notice. Once the ranking list is exhausted, any places still available will become purchasable at the full rate.
nts who are beneficiaries in the final ranking of accommodation, will be allocated an housing place at the reduced rate. The above-mentioned tariff is established annually by the Lombardy Regional Government and will be published as a supplement to the Call.
Exhausted the ranking any places still available, will become purchasable at full rate.
Rules and requirements
Income and merit requirements are established annually by the Notice of Competition. The minimum requirements to apply for a subsidized housing place are:
– To be regularly enrolled (or intend to enroll) in the academic year covered by the Call for Applications;
– To be at or near the age of 18 on the date of entry into residence; otherwise, the student must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian who must check in with the student and must sign the record of housing assignment. The student will also have to show the release for minors signed by the parents and the relevant photocopies of identity documents;
– have no financial obligations towards the Politecnico;
– be resident in a municipality from which it is possible to reach the location of the Course of Study attended, by public transportation, with travel time of more than 90 minutes.
Applications and rankings
The application for a housing place is made online by logging in with one’s University credentials; if one does not have them, one must first register on the online services portal.
At the time of registration, students interested in applying for a housing place must exclusively select one of the university’s FOUR Territorial Poles: Milan, Lecco, Como and Cremona. A separate ranking is drawn up for each Pole. For the Milan Pole, it is possible to express three preferences, selecting the residences in order of priority. The preference expressed is not binding in the allocation phase.
PLEASE NOTE – To be considered ‘Away from home’ the student must take lodging at the Territorial Pole in which the classes of your course of study are delivered.
e preference expressed shall not be binding at the time of allocation.
PLEASE NOTE – To be considered ‘Off-campus’, the student must take accommodation at the Territorial Pole where the lessons of his course of study are provided.
Assignments, rates and confirmation
Students who are designated “Beneficiaries” in the final ranking for the accommodation will be entitled to housing place at a reduced rate, the amount of which will be deducted from the scholarship. The amount of the discounted rate is independent of the type of accommodation allocated (whether in a single room or in a double room), and is established annually by the Lombardy Region, which indicates this amount in the Supplement to the DSU Call.
The “Beneficiary” students will have 48 hours to accept the proposed accommodation, failure to accept within the stipulated period is tantamount to rejection.
Students in receipt of a place of accommodation must:
– pay to the Politecnico di Milano the sum of €500 as a security deposit;
– accept for reading the Regulations and the Charter of University Residency Services currently in force.
The student must take possession of the allocated accommodation place within 15 days of acceptance. Otherwise, it will be considered a waiver, without prejudice to the right of Housing & Dining Unit to make the full deduction from the scholarship. Students benefiting from accommodation at a reduced rate who are found to be “ineligible” in the ranking of the scholarship will be able to stay at the allocated residence, but will be charged the full rate from the date of allocation of the accommodation place.
The allocation of accommodation at a reduced rate is not automatically renewed for the following academic year: in order to take advantage of the benefit, it is necessary to submit the application again, in the manner and within the time limits indicated in the new call of the DSU.
