Pathway Studies

Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS)

A number of UAS bachelors offer a new Pathway Studies to Finland program. These programmes consist of a one-year study period at home, after which you are eligible to apply to continue your studies in Finland as a degree student. The degrees are taught in English at selected Universities of Applies Sciences in Finland.

The pathway studies are fully accredited as part of your degree, and universities have reserved a number of study places exclusively available for successful graduates of the UAS Pathway Studies to Finland program.

Applications are done at Uaspath.fi where you can also find more information on the application process, application timeline, etc.
