In this case, you might get reminders for paying the fee. Please ignore all the automatic reminders about the payment of the application fee.

If you want to apply to POLIMI and select other Master's degree courses, or if you want to apply to POLIMI independently of the results of the admissions to EMJM, then you need to pay the regular application fee to POLIMI.
