Studying during the summer

The Ģ��ֱ�� offers versatile studies also during the summer time. You can check out our course offering from this page!

Summertime studies

It is possible to complete studies at the university during the summer. This page contains information about the course offerings of both faculties and other institutions offering summer courses. Summer studies are mostly done independently, but there is face-to-face teaching, for example, in communication and language studies. If you wish, you may apply for Kela's student aid (the Social Insurance Institution of Finland).

Evaluation of study units may take longer during the summer, as the time limit for notifying of completed study units does not include periods during which, upon the decision by the rector, teaching is not arranged.

Please note that the academic year changes between July and August. Degree students can complete studies in the semesters they have registered as attending. If you study in August, you must be registered as attending on August 1.
