Q: What is the new law for student visa in Finland?

A: The new law for student visa in Finland was proposed by the new government in June 2023. The law would make it more difficult for international students to stay in Finland after graduation.

Q: What are the key changes to the new law?

A: The key changes to the new law include:

Students would only be able to stay in Finland for one year

after graduation to look for a job.

The language proficiency requirement for permanent

residence would be increased. Students would be limited to working 25 hours per week while studying. Q: How would the new law affect international students?

A: The new law would make it more difficult for international students to stay in Finland after graduation. This could make it more difficult for students to find a job in Finland and settle into their new life in the country.

Q: What can international students do to learn more about the new law?

A: International students can contact their local immigration office or a lawyer to learn more about the new law. They can also contact their student union or university for support.

if you calculate well, you will know that Finland and UK are now on same page when it comes to money.

You will pay school fees that will be up to 8k euros and then have block account for application of RP

The school fee is far lower than that of UK but I was not aware of the block account. I thought they only require SOA. Thanks so much for the headup. Make I just continue with my process jor

Sorry for the mix up, it's SOA not block account like Germany's visa App. But you will still need money to fill in the account.

But the edge Finland gave the UK is that your years of study will also count toward the required years for a potential PR

Wow. Sounds great. It pains me that Europe didn't cross my mind before now. Too many complaints from those in UK but I've decided to forge ahead anyway. Las las, God go help us

Europe is good just that the UK is no longer in EU and it will make things difficult for someone who wants to switch to another soft European country.

Minutes to get decision? That must be a huge improvement from when I did mine.

When did you do your biometrics?

Good morning morning ma,pls I would like to ask if WAEC certificate will be needed in applying for masters. Tank you.

Please ma'am does this mean the waec or Neco is irrelevant that I just need SAT, I left secondary school over 10years ago I don't know if there's a need to write waec or I should just go for SAT

Outstandingmam:


A Bsc is your next logical step. I wouldn't like to teleguide you but if you've been learning programming then maybe a bachelors degree in Computer science/Information Technology/Software engineering might be a very good field to go into. It'll be nice to write SAT to improve your chances at getting into the top universities in Finland. The main route to getting in is the entrance examination anyway.

You'll need money for tuition fees, residence permit application etc. The next admission season starts in Dec/Jan so you have time now to start gathering resources and also preparing for the entrance examination.

Visit the portal @ studyinfo dot fi to get started.

Good luck

I wanted to start reading the thread from page one, but it started in 2012, and I am sure things must have changed now.
I have read over 300 pages of thread from UK, Canada, Australia, Austria. To really start reading this thread from page 1 to page 300 plus will take its toll on me.
Please I will appreciate your response sir.

Leaving this country is no longer an option for the middle class.
You must either choose between leaving the country or setting up a business or even an investment.

I'm not sure that 6m will be able to take someone to any Schengen

No more free tuition except for PhD

Your waec or neco is what will give you admission. However for some very competitive schools, in addition to your waec or neco, they'll ask for SAT. So my advice is to do SAT if you can to boost your chances. Visit studyinfo dot fi and check through the requirements of your desired school

Not at all. Waec is only needed for bachelors

Hello ma, please i want to ask, the application opening this september, i discovered the resumption will be around August september 2024 for Msc. Please is there a way to get an admission for MSc that would be starting early next year if this year is impossible??
I just started thinking Finland when Australia became too expensive for me, had to giveup on the admissions.

Irrespective of when admission starts, resumption to schools in Finland is always August/September. They don't do those multiple resumption like US, UK or Canada. This is the position as far as I know but maybe someone else has another experience or perspective.

Australia is really good because it's English speaking but it's truly expensive

Good evening all, what is your advice on Vocational schools in Finland. Is it advisable?

The way you guys always shout do business as if business in Nigeria is sure and has a 99 percent chance of success. 90 percent of traders in any Nigerian market will run away if they have access to 6 million naira today.

Business is not easy in Nigeria especially when you know nothing about the business you're doing. But doing business with big capital in a business city like Lagos, Onitsha, Kano, and Aba you have a 75% chance of success.
And you're wrong when you said that 90% of traders will run away when they see 6 million unless you mean street traders.

75 percent chance of success indeed. Even in developed countries with very wealthy citizens, 90 percent of startups fail within the first 5 years talk less of a poverty stricken hell hole like Nigeria.

Am I entitled to obtain a Type A resident permit after completing a one-year vocational program, and does this qualification allow me to study tuition-free at a university?

I have Msc in Operations management from Nigerian University , and by September , I willl will be done with my Msc in supply mgt in UK. With the present UK unfriendly immigration policies and how UK government is planning to fleece the immigrants , and also couple with the high cost of studying Phd , the I would like to start my Phd in Finland . How is life generally in Finland? What is the chance of getting PR and job in Finland ?. In addition , I graduated with 60+ in both Masters program , what is chance of getting admission ? How do I go about the admission process ? Thank you

There is a big difference between doing business in the developed world and developing countries. Doing any startup requires a lot of paperwork and government monitoring to the extent of even controlling how you pay your workers. But the same can't be said about Nigeria
