- If you want to enroll in a free access degree course, the TOLC, the Cisia Online Test, will only be used to assess your initial skills and set any training obligations to be fulfilled. If you hold language certifications, they might be used as exemption from the assessment of some of the required skills and if you cannot take the TOLC you will have to fulfil the Additional Training Obligations (OFA).
- If you want to enroll in a programmed access degree course, the TOLC, besides assessing your skills, will be used to establish your place in the ranking and the possibility of enrolling at UniBg.
The TOLC (Cisia Online Test), provided by CISIA, is the test assessing students’ preparation to access degree courses. It is an individual test consisting of questions selected by the CISIA TOLC database and is taken on the computer.
There are many types of TOLC, the full list is available at the CISIA website. The University of Bergamo decided to use TOLC-I, TOLC-E, TOLC-SU, TOLC-PSI.
Each degree course requires different preparation and therefore a different TOLC. For UniBg degree courses, preparation for one of the following TOLCs is required:
- TOLC-I for engineering courses
- TOLC-E for economics courses
- TOLC-SU for humanities, languages and law courses
- TOLC-PSI for psychology
