UNI and POLY in Finland:

UNI (universities) in northern Europe are all five-year undergraduate and postgraduate courses, almost all of which are taught in their own languages. POLY (Junior College) in Finland offers a bachelor's degree with a duration of 3.5-4 years and a unique English course. It takes a lot of time to get a bachelor's degree from a university and then enter a university. If you want to study for a master's degree, you should enter the university as soon as possible. Both Finns and China people agree that HUT is the best science and engineering university in Finland, and EVTEK is a college.

Process strategy: (kina.cc)

1) Apply to the school (kina.cc)

Look for schools online. The "Directory of National Universities" and "Directory of Institutions" on the home page of Fenzhongjia (www.kina.cc/fi) contain the names and websites of all regular institutions in Finland. This directory is the most systematic, standardized and complete directory of Finnish universities on the Internet. Translated directly from the Finnish education department, it is better than all university catalogs randomly collected by individuals and groups in search catalogs and patchwork books.

Every university in Finland has an English version on its website. You can click on the British flag or the word "English" to enter. In the English version, you will soon find the contact email address of its international student department or admissions office, as well as the English-taught projects. Contact by email, introduce yourself briefly and ask for an application form. Many schools' application forms can be downloaded and used directly on their websites.

Fill in the application form and mail it to the school together with relevant certificates and copies (unless the original is needed). The school thinks it is qualified to take the exam, and generally sends out an invitation letter for the exam in March-April. Generally speaking, it is easier for northern universities to apply and the admission probability is higher. There are many people in the south of China, especially in the capital area, and the competition is fierce. Some colleges and universities in the north can be admitted without an entrance examination.

If the school has experience in testing students in China, it will directly entrust the embassy or consulate to organize the examination. Otherwise, you may need to contact the embassy or consulate to take the exam in China. There are also schools that require you to come to Finland to take the exam. The guide to examination life in the capital area is in the elite area of Finnish ethnic department in KINA.cc community.

2) apply for a passport (kina.cc)

The procedure for applying for a passport for studying abroad is the same in all countries. See KINA.cc study abroad reader, volume 3.

3) Apply for a visa

The examination visa is used for the examination in Finland, and it is handled by invitation letter, valid for 1 week. Then go back to China and wait for the admission notice.

Apply for a study visa with the letter of admission, valid for 1 year.

To apply for a study visa in Finland, you need to prepare: (kina.cc)

1) Bring your household registration book and ID card to the notary office at or above the municipal level for notarization of the highest diploma and birth certificate.

2) With your passport, go to a local bank in China to get a traveler's check or a bank draft, in US dollars or Eurodollars.

The procedure for handling traveler's checks is relatively simple. With your passport and ID card, you can handle it in China Bank, and you only need to pay the difference between buying and selling foreign exchange and a part of the handling fee.

Bank draft is handled in China Bank with passport and ID card, that is, the payee is your bank draft (both the remitter and the payee can be yourself). If the bank limits the daily remittance amount of a single person, you can bring more ID cards and remit them to you in the name of multiple people.

Traveler's checks are more convenient. When you arrive in Finland, you can withdraw money by depositing it in the bank. As for the bank draft, after you arrive in Finland, you need to open an account with the Finnish bank and deposit the draft. Because the Bank of China has no branch in Finland, it will take about a week to get the bill.

3) Bring the notarial certificate with the highest education to the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for certification. Just stick a small note stamped by the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and signed by the third secretary at the back of your notarial certificate to prove that your notarial certificate is true.

Finnish study visa application process: (kina.cc)

1) During working hours (Monday to Friday at 9: 00 am-11:30 am), get the visa application form and admission notice from the visa office of the Finnish Embassy in Kerry Center.

2) Prepare two 2-inch photos of the same original, and fill in the application form and a questionnaire (both in English).

3) Prepare all the required materials (the embassy will give you a material when receiving the application form, which lists all the required materials): one page of notarial certificate with the highest academic qualifications and its English copy, one page of birth certificate and its English copy, admission notice, a copy of IELTS test report, a copy of passport home page (with photos), and a copy of bank draft or traveler's check.

4) After preparing all the required materials, send them back to the visa office of the Finnish Embassy during working hours (Monday to Friday between 9: 00 am-11:30 am) and pay the visa processing fee. Leave all the contact information you can find in the visa applicant register.

5) Conduct the interview according to the time notified by the embassy. The general interview is for the embassy to further inquire about the applicant.

6) Wait 4-6 weeks and get the visa after being notified by the embassy by phone.

The above is roughly the specific process of applying for a visa, and the exceptions that need attention are as follows:

1) Admission notice, the embassy will not return the original. If you are going to use it to buy a plane ticket, you'd better get a copy for later use.

2) In the IELTS test report, the original bank draft or traveler's check must be kept. Although it is not necessary to hand it in to the embassy, the staff may take a look at the original when handing in the materials.

3) A copy of a bank draft or traveler's check will cost $5,000 or euros in 2002 and $6,000 or euros in 2003.

Visas are usually issued before the start of school. Finnair student tickets with a visa can buy 40 kilograms of luggage, which is almost half cheaper. But only for students who come to Finland for the first time.

4) Departure and arrival (kina.cc)

Finland is a country with a large area, so it is necessary to have a simple understanding of Finland's geography and domestic transportation before departure. For relevant information, please read the "Finland Division Compilation" and "Finland Traffic Compilation" on the homepage of fi.kina.cc in Finland.

Finnair and China International Airlines have direct flights from Beijing to Helsinki.

Helsinki Airport is located in its satellite city of Wanta. You can take a bus or Finnair to Helsinki Railway Station, which is the city center.

5) register in the school and get a student apartment (kina.cc).

Student apartments are the cheapest accommodation in Finland. Student apartments must be applied online before coming to Finland: there are student apartment institutions everywhere, such as HOAS；; In the capital; Some schools have their own student apartment institutions, how to work for TKY in universities. Some schools provide temporary accommodation, and then they need to apply for a house in the student apartment organization. If the institution gives the house before coming to Finland, it needs to confirm and remit the deposit to Finland; Pay the rent on the 6th of every month, even if people don't come to Finland, the money will be remitted. After that, you can go to the agency to get the key on the first day in the local area. Otherwise, you need to stay in a local hotel temporarily.

6) Social Security Number and Tax Card

Those who have a residence permit for more than one year can apply for population and tax registration at the local commune office with their passports and get a social security number. Then you can go to the tax bureau to apply for a tax card. Some cities give foreign students permanent resident status, so they can apply for ID cards.

7) Open a bank account

Use your social security number and passport to open an account in a bank. You can open dollars and other currencies. Finland uses the euro. You will get an ATM card. Transfer China bank draft or cheque to your account. In places where there are many foreign students, the bank staff will be very skilled in completing all the procedures, so it is recommended to open an account in a bank in the city center. Recommend NORDEA bank, SAMPO is also good. At the same time, you can apply for online banking agreement and |VISA Electronic | (a substitute for Visa card). I suggest you get one, because Nuodiya's new withdrawal card has no IC chip and can't be used in the laundry room of the student apartment. There is no account opening fee and no deposit.

VIII) Update

Apply for renewal 3 months before the expiration of the existing visa. In the foreign affairs office of the local police station. Open a study certificate and a credit certificate at school. The requirement is to get 20 credits in that year, but in fact only 15 credits in the first year. When a bank issues a certificate of deposit, the deposit requirements remain unchanged. Take the residence permit application form, fill it out, and submit it to the police station together with your passport. You can get your passport back after accepting it and return it after the visa is processed. If you can't get your passport back, you will get a temporary id card, with which you can't travel abroad. The processing time in summer is very long, about 3 months. The visa is generally valid from June to the end of August. If possible, try to put the visa back in July or August (depending on the school). Generally, as long as the deposit is enough (because you may not get some credits in June, etc.). At present, it seems that changing schools has no effect on visa renewal, but it cannot be guaranteed.
