For exchange students:

StuDesks are reference units of the International Exchange Office for incoming and outgoing students, in the framework of an exchange programme. Before, during and after their stay at Politecnico di Milano, incoming students will get support from their StuDesk. As soon as you arrive in Milan, the first thing you should do is go to your designated StuDesk (as indicated on your application form) for enrolment, bringing with you the following documents:
• your passport or ID card;
• your student visa if you are a non-EU citizen;
• other documents that might be requested by your StuDesk;
You will receive an official matriculation letter, which will be useful for bureaucratic matters. Shortly after your enrolment, your magnetic student card will be available.
The student card will give you access to all campus facilities (computer rooms, libraries, departments, etc.).
