Sit the test TOLC-SU

The CISIA Test (TOLC-SU) is also required to apply to the open-access History degree programmes. TOLC-SU is an orientation tool used to assess your initial abilities.

The TOLC-SU test can be taken at any of the Universities of the CISIA consortium; furthermore, CISIA provides TOLC@HOME home tests to allow students to take TOLCs without leaving their homes.

TOLC@HOME tests are provided to individual students through the CISIA platform using tools and technology that allow to create secure and controlled virtual classrooms in which candidates can be reliably identified and carry out their tests autonomously. Virtual classrooms are created and managed by universities in collaboration with CISIA. Information and instructions on the equipment required to take TOLC@HOME tests can be found on the CISIA website.

Remember that in order to sit the TOLC, it is necessary to register in advance of the date of the identified test (registration closes one week before the date of the test) and that it is possible to book up to the maximum number of places.

Check the calendar that is continuously updated.

TOLC can be repeated, but no more than once a month (calendar month).

As for open-access degree programmes, after taking the TOLC you can enrol in the degree programme of your choice. If your TOLC score is lower than the minimum requirement you will be assigned Additional Learning Requirements.

A score of at least 26 points out of 50 indicates you already possess the skills required for admission.

If the score you get in the test is under the threshold, you will be required to complete supplementary training (Obbligo Formativo Aggiuntivo - OFA).

If you are a student with disabilities or specific learning disabilities, you can take an adapted version of the test. See more information on the site for Services for students with special needs and SLD.
