NO TUITION FEES
In Finland Bachelor's and Doctoral level programmes - as well as many Master's level programmes - do not charge tuition fees, regardless of your nationality. This also applies to the international degree students as well as exchange and visiting students.
However, in some universities some Master's programmes may charge tuition fees from students (both EU/EEA and non-EU/EEA students). At the University of Helsinki only theEconomy, State and Society Erasmus Mundus programme may charge tuition fees from students.
COST OF LIVING
All students have to pay for their accommodation and living expenses as well as their books and other study materials. The total monthly living expenses of a single student average from 700 to 1000 euro - depending on your spending habits.
For rent in a student dormitory and residence hall you should budget about 400 euro a month (in a single room). The rent for a studio or family flat is higher; it ranges from 500 to 850 euro a month depending on the flat and the location.
Lunch at the Unicafe student cafeterias costs between 2,60 and 4,40 euro for Bachelor and Master’s students, for doctoral students the cost is 4,60 to 6,40 euro. The price depends on the lunch.
Local transportation costs are about 24,80 euro / 30-days travels in Helsinki and 49,30 euro / 30-days regional travels from Espoo and Vantaa to Helsinki (prices shown include the student discount which is available to Bachelor and Master’s students under the age of 30).
Your student status, and especially the Student Union membership, entitles mainly Bachelor and Master’s students to various services at affordable prices as well as to an abundance of student discounts.
The discounts for doctoral students are more limited.
STUDENT UNION FEE
The Student Unions of the various universities charge an annual membership fee to cover their activities.
At the University Helsinki, the fee for Bachelor and Master’s students is 102 euro for the 2015-2016 academic year. The right to access the student health care is included in this fee for Bachelor and Master’s students.
The fee for doctoral students is 48 euro for the 2015-2016 academic year. The fee for doctoral students is smaller because they are not entitled to use the services of the student health care.
