How many students are selected in this degree programme?
You can find the number of study places offered in joint application to this degree programme, and path studies in the programme, on Studyinfo.fi on the degree programme’s page. The number of study places varies from year to year.
In joint application the quota for first-time applicants in this degree programme is 90%, which means that the majority of study places are reserved for applicants applying for their first higher education degree.
In path studies there is no quota for first-time applicants. Path studies might be a good fit for you especially if you have already accepted a study place at a higher education institution.
How does studying in path studies differ from
degree studies?
In the joint application process, applicants apply to study for a degree. In path studies, studies begin as an Open UAS student.
Open UAS path studies are an alternative route to a degree. In path studies, you can get started with studies included in the degree. Path studies consist of the first-year studies (60 ECTS) of a Bachelor’s degree, which you complete alongside degree students. The actual studies or the contents of the studies do not differ from 1st year degree studies.
You cannot complete a degree as a path student. Based on the credits you attain and your success in path studies, you can apply for a degree study right via Open UAS separate application and continue your studies seamlessly until graduation.
Path studies are subject to an Open UAS study fee. There is also a difference in the benefits of a path student compared to degree students.
Apart from online study programmes, path studies require attendance in Turku, Finland.
Please note that as path studies do not lead to a degree, Finnish immigration services are not likely to grant a residence permit for path studies.
