Tuition Fees
University of Lapland does not charge tuition fees from degree students. Higher education in Finland is supported by the Finnish government, which means that both Finnish and international students can benefit from one of the world's best education systems, free of charge.
However, the governmental programme includes possible tuition fees for non-EU/EEA students, but at this stage only states some very general terms, suggesting 2016 or 2017 as a preliminary introduction timetable.
Living costs in Finland and in Rovaniemi
In Finland, the general cost of living is relatively high, but still approximately the same as in other EU countries. In the north of Finland the living expences are usually lower than in the southern Finland. Living expenses in Rovaniemi for a student are in an average 600–900 € per month. Following is an estimate of a Master's degree student’s monthly budget
Rent 140–450 €
Food 250 €
Transportation 50 €

Doctoral level students' living expenses are higher (about 1200–1500 € per month), because they are not entitled to same benefits as degree students.
