Scholarships
Selection criteria
Applicants will be selected on the basis of their previous academic career and of their Curriculum Vitae.

Amount of the scholarship
-The gross amount of the scholarship is 6.000 Euro per year for the complete period. The exact net sum is dependent upon the individual tax con***ions of each student, which can be verified only upon the arrival of the student.

Chào các anh chị và các bạn, em mới nhận tin vui khi có tên trong final list of eligible student của trường Polito cho bậc msc tháng 9 năm 2010 và đang hồi hộp chờ xem có được nhận học bổng hay không. Dù sao cũng rất muốn làm quen trước với các anh chị cùng các bạn, nhất là những bác đang học tập và làm việc tại polito. Rất mong nhận được sự quan tâm giúp đỡ của mọi người vì hiện tại trước mắt là những vấn đề "loanh quanh" về thủ tục. Các bác ở Torino cho em xin contact với nhé.

HI, mình cũng có tên trong Final list of eligible students - ENGINEERING PROGRAMS.
Rảnh rỗi đàm đạo tâm sự nhé YM: nguyen.tanloc

Bạn cần hỏi gì thì cứ đặt câu hỏi cụ thể.

Cám ơn bác Rome, hiện giờ em đang rất thắc mắc về vấn đề chi phí, bao gồm: học phí, tiền ăn, ở, đi lại và các phụ phí khác khi học ở Polito. Các hình thức "kiếm tiền" mà sinh viên hay áp dụng để trang trải thêm. Em tìm mãi trên website mà không thấy, chỉ biết tuition fee đối với các bạn được học bổng là 1275 euro/năm. Bác có thông tin gì về vấn đề này ko? Ngoài ra em cũng muốn biết contact của hội sinh viên Việt Nam tại Ý cũng như Torino. Các anh chị hay trao đổi và gặp gỡ tại diễn đàn nào thế?
Nhân tiện, nick Y! của em là toriho86@yahoo.com

Mình kô ở Torino, cũng kô biết gì về PoliTo nên kô trả lời bạn đc. Mình đã nhắn bạn admin hộp thư điện tử Torino add bạn.
Trước đây Hội sinh viên Việt Nam tại Ý có diễn đàn riêng nhưng giờ kô còn nữa. Bọn mình bên này nếu là hoạt động của hội sinh viên thì dùng mail group chung, song hạn chế thêm thành viên vì một email chạy đến hộp mail của tầm 200 người (mình cũng kô biết con số cụ thể). Có vài lần các bạn chát chít spam ghê quá nên sau này khá là "thiết quân luật". Bạn nào chắc chắn sẽ sang Ý học thì nói mình, mình nhắn bạn admin add các bạn, còn nếu đang apply thì chưa cần thiết.
Ngoài ra các thành phố tập trung đông sinh viên Việt Nam như Milano và Torino đều có hộp thư riêng. Như trường hợp của bạn toriho mình đã nhắn bạn admin hộp thư Torino rồi. Trong vòng 1 tuần nếu kô thấy invitation, bạn nhắn lại với mình.
Bọn mình cũng có Facebook của hội sinh viên nhưng hình như toàn dùng để post ảnh tự sướng , kô phải chỗ để hỏi han .
Các bạn đang apply nếu có câu hỏi gì có thể post ở đây, nếu có ai ở đây trả lời đc sẽ trả lời. Nếu kô trả lời đc sẽ nhắn các bạn khác vào trả lời hoặc hỏi giùm các bạn rồi post lên đây.
