For new transfer student
To start your studies
- Confirm your study place and enroll for the academic year
- Get your student username and password. It is required that you first accept the study place and enroll for the next academic year before your username and password can be given.
- Schedule a meeting about crediting your studies with Head of Studies. Prepare to take a transcript of records from your previous University of Applied Sciences with you at the meeting. It would also be good if you have the course descriptions available.
- Get familiar with the Digital Starter Package and start working with it.
- If you have any questions, please contact Academic Affairs.
Accepting the study place and enrolment for academic year
The study place must be accepted and the enrolment for academic year 2024-2025 completed by latest on Thursday 11 July 2024 at 3 pm Finnish time in Studyinfo database. The study place is accepted by using the link you receive from Studyinfo or by using the strong identification (a Finnish bank account, mobile certificate or an electronic ID card).
Absence
If you have already used your terms of absence in your previous higher education institution, you are not entitled for new terms of absence.
You can find more details about the enrolment you can find from Right to study page.
If you are in conscript, non-military or voluntary military service after you have been admitted to a school and you are absent from school either before or after performing the service, you could potentially lose your eligibility for a student loan compensation. The period qualifying you for the compensation can be extended, but that only applies to the academic terms in which you are in active service. Read more on the qualifying criteria for the student loan compensation from Kela.
