As @schooldropout and @genexy have stated earlier, just go and do AIICO. It'll take you just 30-45 mins @ d rate of 30,800. Did mine yesterday.

That's right! personally I think local insurance is just fine. I did MARSH though and it was like 3x the price of the local. But it was cos I did not know about the local insurance then before getting the list from the embassy when I applied for RP. You may never have a need for the benefit self especially if u're not such a perennial person. I am still expecting the reimbursement of my last medical bill..... It's just 42e but I'm gonna claim it. Boys just de buy insurance we no de even sick or use medical service. Na dash most money be for them yet few cases like mine is even delayed if at all eventually reimbursed

I appreciate so much. Was worried because UniOulu sent a document about MARSH to me advising I do SIP that I facilitates RP decision. Secondly, which date is advisable to start the insurance?

Boss Hw aalto university be U got any ideas. I would appreciate
Baba Aalto correct! In academic quality and proximity to activities or opportunities. I think they have three campuses: one in Espoo, a city just next to Helsinki and the other two are in Helsinki actually depending on your field. It is rated second best currently locally and below 300 in the world university ranking.

Baba no dull. I de Jyväskylä but if I get admission into Helsinki tomorrow I go pack my bag. Helsinki is the highest ranked school in Finland, natives self no get slots easily. Plus there are lots of other opportunities and it is lots more fun because it has the most international presence and influences. No jokes, Jyväskylä is a great school, currently ranked third I guess, the environment is nice but compared to Helsinki na make we compare dream with death!

Baba, you too much. You don consolidate my fate be that. You dey enter Helsinki wella?

Which one comes first, booking an appointment date before applying for RP or the thee way round? Secondly, while applying will there be options to upload documents during the application or there's no uploads? Thirdly, the documents to send to the Embassy 2weeks before interview date is it originals or photocopies?

Boss, sorry for the late response. NL dey do me strong thing recently. No know wetin I do o. Lol.

You can book an appointment forthwith, provided you have your admission letter already.

Secondly, just ensure you have all other requisite documents handy as you'd have to send them at least two weeks prior to your interview date. And yeah, you have to send originals including your international passport and ensure that you have a scratch card included for the verification of your olevels.

I believe you can also do the online application till you submit the hard docs two weeks before. Furthermore, the OLE_OPI form in pdf. Format should be downloaded, filled meticulously, printed and attached to the hard copies you will be sending to the embassy.

Lastly, ensure you have two photocopies of each of your documents as these will be requested on your interview day. The payment slip for your RP should be with you too. Feel free to ask further questions.
