Have you ever wanted to study in Finland?

Now you have a great opportunity. Apply for an exchange to South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences! We offer studies in English in many different study fields. International study PISA is a proof of education being at high level in Finland.

Previous exchange students’ tips:

  • the majority of students goes from the student apartments to the university on foot or by bike
  • it is possible to pay by credit card in the university canteen and even in pubs and nightclubs
  • spending a night on one of the ferries to Stockholm or elsewhere is a must for an exchange student in Finland
