UNIVERSITY ADMISSIONS FINLAND All graduate applications and documents to University of Helsinki must be mailed to the following address: University Admissions Finland Unioninkatu 40B FI-00170 Helsinki Finland University Admissions Finland (UAF) is a centralized application service established by Finnish universities. UAFĀ“s task is to help applicants to go through the application process as smoothly as possible. If you have questions about the application procedure, the UAF personnel can help you via e-mail and over the telephone. For more information, visit the UAF website at http://universityadmissions.fi/. UAF does not have appointment hours for visiting clients. GENERAL INFORMATION The University of Helsinki (UH) is a research-intensive institution. This trend is also reflected in the International MasterĀ“s Programmes, taught entirely in English. These programmes provide students with skills needed in demanding professions and give a solid foundation for doctoral (PhD) studies. The prerequisite for the International MasterĀ“s Programmes or MasterĀ“s level studies in general, is a BachelorĀ“s degree of equivalent. The extent of the International MasterĀ“s Programmes is 120 ECTS credits. Two years of intensive full-time study is required of the student for graduation. All programmes follow the national legislation governing university education and are therefore recognized throughout Europe and the rest of the world. Quality of the programmes is ensured by an international quality assurance system. An important part of the system is the assessment of all research and education of the University of Helsinki carried out by international experts every six years. In 2016, all programmes are free of charge for all accepted students, EU and non-EU students alike. The exception to this rule is the two International MasterĀ“s Degree Programmes (Advanced Spectroscopy in Chemistry and Economy, State and Society) that have Euromaster or Erasmus Mundus status. These may have tuition fees. ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS As indicated above, you must have a BachelorĀ“s degree or equivalent to qualify for entry to an International MasterĀ“s Programme. However, the BachelorĀ“s does not have to be exactly in the same field of study as the MasterĀ“s degree you are applying for. Most International MasterĀ“s Programmes accept students with a varying background. Some IMDPs may even accept students with a degree from a university of applied sciences. Nevertheless, major parts or modules in your past studies must be relevant to the programme you are applying for. Applicants with a Bachelor's degree from a university of applied sciences should always first contact the Admissions Services (admissions@helsinki.fi). Some programmes may require that the applicant's degree is from a specific field. Please see the programmeĀ“s website for detailed requirements. The final assessment of your existing degree will be carried out once you have submitted your application. Detailed information regarding the types of degrees that are acceptable cannot be given in advance. However, you are able to compare the content BachelorĀ“s degree programme that you have completed with a similar one offered at the University of Helsinki by going through the course information on the appropriate departmentĀ“s website at http://www.helsinki.fi/units/index.html. The programme/syllabus (often called a study guide) can usually be found by clicking the Studies or Courses link. You will find an overview of all classes offered in English at the Courses in English website at https://www.helsinki.fi/en/courses-in-english. In order to qualify for MasterĀ“s level studies, your grades must be fairly good. At the University Helsinki, where a grading scale from 0 to 5 is used, a student wishing to enter MasterĀ“s studies must have 3 (three) as the average performance grade in the BachelorĀ“s degree. In some cases, the average grade requirement may be as high as 4/5 or even higher. PENDING BACHELORĀ“S DEGREE Even if you are in the middle of the last year of your undergraduate university studies, you should still send in the documents that you have at the moment of application. Do not wait until you receive your final diploma or degree certificate, if it is not available within the application period. Instead, submit the documents you have and indicate in your application the anticipated university graduation date. For the majority of the programmes, the application deadline is January 27, 2016. University Admissions Finland (UAF) must receive the application form, including whatever enclosures you are able to submit. At UAF, the processing of applications will continue until the late February or early March. After this first stage of processing the application files are forwarded to the appropriate faculty. If you are planning to apply for one of the International MasterĀ“s Programmes, please note that BachelorĀ“s diplomas and transcripts may still be processed as late as July 15, 2016. However, this again may vary according to an individual Master's programme.

āReal estate agentā and āidā might be the trickiest words in Finnish ā at least if you ask David Veney, an American who is taking Finnish courses at the University of Helsinki. Finnish has a reputation as a difficult language, but is it really that hard to master? Our students Veney, Svetlana Korshunova from Russia and Junfeng Zhang from China tell which aspects make learning Finnish easier. PS. Did you know that Finnish language courses at the University of Helsinki are free of charge for our degree students?

Finnish is pronounced as it's written, which makes learning easier. Some words, like "kiinteistƶnvƤlittƤjƤ" and "henkilƶllisyystodistus", are difficult though. The grammar is also fairly logical, even if there is a lot of rules. "Kielen oppiminen on kuin laittaisi rahaa pankkiin. Se on hyvƤ sijoitus", says David Veney, master's degree student, who has studied Finnish.
