Entrance examinations of the first joint application of the spring
The first joint application this spring, which took place on 8–23 January 2020, included Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes conducted in English.

Universities of applied sciences will cancel the entrance examinations to the Bachelor’s degree programmes included in the first joint application of the spring. The admission methods which replace the entrance examinations will be announced on the website of each university of applied sciences on 27 March and directly to the applicants, to the email address the applicant has provided in the application form in Studyinfo.
