Tuition Fees & Living Costs
 

Tuition Fees
 

Non-EU/EEA students are required to pay tuition fees for English-taught bachelor’s and master’s programs.
 

• Typical range: €8,000 – €20,000 per year (varies by university & program)

• PhD programs: Often tuition-free and sometimes funded with a stipend

Living Costs
 

Finland is an advanced Nordic country, and living expenses reflect the quality of life:
 

• Monthly living costs: approx. €700 – €900, depending on city & lifestyle

• Accommodation, transport, food, and health insurance are key components of the total budget.
   

Scholarships & Financial Support
 

Finland does not currently offer a central government student scholarship for international students but many universities provide tuition fee waivers or partial scholarships based on merit.
 

Scholarships are typically competitive and may cover part or all of the tuition fee. However, living costs are not usually covered by these awards, so students should plan their finances carefully.
 

Student Residence Permit & Visa
 

If your studies last longer than 90 days, you must obtain a student residence permit.
 

Key Requirements
 

• Valid passport

• Letter of admission from a recognised Finnish institution

• Proof of sufficient funds to cover living expenses

Applications are usually submitted online via the Enter Finland portal, followed by biometrics at a Finnish embassy or VFS Global centre.
 

Work Rights During & After Studies
 

During Studies
 

Non-EU/EEA students with a valid residence permit can work part-time while studying typically up to an average of 30 hours per week.
 

This can help cover some living expenses, but students should prioritise their studies and financial planning.
 

After Graduation
 

Finland offers a post-study residence permit for up to 2 years to look for work or start a business after graduation.
