I wish to apply only for EMJM in Imaging programme. Do I need to pay an application fee for my POLIMI application?
You do NOT need to pay the application fee if you apply to POLIMI for the EMJM Imaging programme. It means you will be able to enrol at POLIMI only in case of successful admission to the EMJM, and your POLIMI application cannot be considered for other Master's degree courses besides Computer Science and Engineering.
In this case, you might get reminders for paying the fee. Please ignore all the automatic reminders about the payment of the application fee.

I am applying for the EMJM in Imaging programme. At the same time, I am also applying to other Master’s degree programmes at POLIMI. Do I need to pay an application fee for my POLIMI application?
