It costs around 14K to send through DHL. It takes between 3 to 5 days using DHL.

If you have good writing and typing skills I will advise you to consider PTE Academic instead of IELTS. For PTE u get the result in less than 5 days and you can easily send to the school or UAF.


Thanks boss
Abt the PTE, I don't know mush about it and d cost, and also I dont have any material to prepare for it. I will appreciate if u can help me out with some materials and useful links that I can learn more cus I need to make a fast decision now. here is my mail: jimmydave01@yahoo.com. pls kindly forward any useful materials for me . tnx as I await ur response.

Use the free study guide British council would give you, study using baron IELTS materials then back it all all up using youtube videos too.
Just be composed for your speaking test and be attentive for the listening test.

Good evening.
I'm an undergraduate here in Nigeria but I'm thinking of studying and working abroad instead. From what I've seen here it seems Finland is quite cheap compared to other European countries. So I want to ask how much it would cost to travel and if there are any tuition free undergraduate programmes there too. Thanks

Hello house,can anyone suggest the acceptable way to notarize degree certificate here in Nigeria for MSc admission in Finland. I applied to LUT last yr with complete documents(IELTS-7.5,Transcript sent by my University,CV...and my degree certificate stamped and signed "Certified True Copy" by a notary in the Ministry of Justice of my State).Unfortunately,my application was disqualified by UAF at the eleventh hour,stating that the "Certified True Copy" stamp was unacceptable.Kindly advise cos I don't wish to waste my money like last yr.Thank u!

Well I was denied admission the last application period by LUT due to the fact that My PGD transcript and statement couldn't reach them but in the picture i sent, My dox was notarized like that and it was accepted

Re: Studying In Finland (free Tuition) by Wordsmith(m): 2:39am On Dec 11, 2015
Good day everyone.

I intend applying to two schools - University of Helsinki and University of Tampere. I have done my IELTS exams last month. Scored 7.5. I also went to my university to request my transcript be sent to UAF. My transcript and a copy of my certificate was attached in a folder and I was told it'd be processed and sent via DHL on Monday next week.

I have some questions as I've read UH's Application Process, UAF's as well,

University of Helsinki stated on their site that after registering with studyinfo.fi and paying for the application, "the service will direct you to the registration form of the University Admissions Finland application system. Print the application form and send together with the required application documents to the University Admissions Finland office.".

What are the other required documents?

Do I need to send this application form and the "other application documents" with my transcript or send them seperate of the transcript? Do I also need to attach my IELTS result to the transcript as well or send it seperately?

Please I need information from those who are schooling in Finland, because the procedure from UH,UAF seems a bit confusing.

Strange indeed. I think a seal would have been better in addition to the stamp.

Yes it is stated there, you can use your master or visa card for the payment.

May God help and provide for all of us.

Naija visa card no dey work for Finland portals o. I tried using my fidelity visa card to book for bus ticket in Helsinki and it was rejected. I tried to check my account balance in an ATM in joensuu but the machine kept rejecting my card. I don't know about master card. If you are frustrated in making d payment you can ask anybody in Finland to help you pay it

Go to a lawyer in a private firm that is a notary public or to a magistrate. No notary public in ministry of justice. You were misled.

GTBANK Mastercard works fine in Finland and online. Although some merchants and online stores do not accept Nigerian atm cards.

Pls who has completed the apploication process on UAF website.the application number that wld be given to us,is it after completing the application form or there is a personal request for the application number.beacuse I am in my university here to start the processin of my transcript,but I can't continue because I wld have to write my application number on my transcript and other document.pls I look forward to your reply

dahonestboss:


If you cant get the application number in the application process, then you will get it at the end of the application, give your school the number to write on your transcript when sending it, even if your school did not write it, they will locate your file with just your name, its not a big deal

Wait, I get an application number after applying online and then write it on my transcript? The UAF didn't specify any of this, neither did the Universities I want to apply to.

yea, neither did d university nor d UAF specified this but it will better u ask them to type is on ur transcript for easy identification. Some said it here that his own transcript was taken to another office cox he did nt write d number, they open it n discovered that it wasn't for that office n it was transfered to the appropriate office. unfortunately, the latter rejected it cox the seal has been removed.

The application fee covers all applications you apply for in the same semester ,so far you use the same email address you used at first.i.e If you started d application with naijagobeta@africa.com and ur 100euros was deducted and u started d process u applied for MSc in Computer engineering in University of Helsinki for autumn 2016, after submitting that u can apply for other msc programs to the limit of Msc programs u can apply to for d same autumn 2016, u wont pay anoda app fee, wen undergraduate application opens in January also u can also apply for degree courses for d same autumn 2016 using the same email without paying anoda app fee. In essence your single 100euros one time payment covers all applications u wud love to submit for d same study period.

Hello bosses in the house(Dahonestboss and others currently in Finland), i have applied to four different schools for masters studies starting in autumn 2016, all my documents is ready, just needed to go to my school tomorrow and explain to them how they would mail the transcript, when i first applied for the transcript i wrote the four schools(the four schs falls under UAF) as recipient of the transcript, however while filling application i realised i have to send all my documents to UAF in Helsinki. I would be in my school to give them go ahead to mail the transcript.
MY QUESTION
Since there are four schools with four different application numbers, would i instruct them to put four different transcripts of academic records in four different envelopes and put the four envelopes in a single bigger envelope that would now be addressed to UAF, since d application requirements of each school is different.
how should the transcript be packaged and sent?

Kindly help me answer this question
