Here we are again....
So, I got a rejection last year September. My residence permit wasn't granted because, my means of sustenance was not secure.

I got a better job afterwards. I will no longer be asking my mother to sponsor me. All the funds is from me, and this time I got a 50% scholarship, unlike last year, it was a hundred. So I will be paying tuition and will still have up to 7000 euros left. But fear still dey catch me... For those who got a residence permit, what did you do differently?

Thank you.

This is for the people who already study in Finland. How did you get money to renew your residence permit? Could you find a Job? Is your second year a sad experience?

Please answer. The Finland Forum paints a depressing picture.

For a 2 and a half year course in Finland, what insurance did you buy? from what company?
For how many years was the insurance for?

I am trying to avoid mutual benefits Assurance....

Hey bro, please do you know if an exchange student needs a resident permit to study for 4 months in Finland? Do one also needs insurance as well? If yes, which insurance company would you recommend for a student coming to Finland from another schengen country?

Thanks

Hmmmm I don't think so but let me email migri first so I can relate it here. As u are in Europe I think swiss care insurance should serve. From the little I gained on migri site, if your studies exceeds 90 days u need a residence permit
