University of Helsinki
The University of Helsinki received over 700 applications from incoming exchange student applicants around the world (for the autumn 2012 or for the whole academic year 2012/2013)!
We received from Europe nearly 600 Erasmus and Nordplus applications and from other continents in various programs altogether over 100 applications.
You will receive your Acceptance Letter by e-mail, sent by your host faculty, if your application is approved. Acceptance information is usually available around mid-June at the latest. Before that your application is considered by your host faculty. Please try to be patient!
In addition to the Acceptance e-mail, university bilateral exchange and ISEP, AEN, MAUI and North2North exchange students (not Erasmus SMS, Nordplus etc.) will also receive an Acceptance Letter from the International Exchange Services. This letter is always sent to the coordinator of the students home university, and it is needed for Residence Permit applications.
It is very important that you should notify the faculty and also the International Exchange Services immediately, if you need to cancel your exchange period or if there is a change in your exchange period.
Accepted exchange students will receive necessary information for the enrolment with the acceptance letter and we have gathered information about how to get started at the New Students website. You will meet staff and other new students latest at the Welcome Fair on August 30 – September 1, 2012.
If you did not apply, the next application round for incoming exchange students begins in August! Stay tuned at our website!
Kind regards, International Exchange Services
