Autumn joint application to higher education starts soon
If you did not get accepted to a study programme in the spring joint application, you can apply for studies starting in spring 2025 in the autumn joint application.
The autumn joint application 2024 to higher education starts on Wednesday 28 August at 8 am and ends on Wednesday 11 September at 3 pm.
You can apply for degree programmes offered by universities and universities of applied sciences that begin in January 2025. The number of available degree programmes is smaller in the autumn joint application.
You can find more information about the autumn joint application at the Studyinfo website.
Don't forget separate applications at universities and UAS
Many higher education institutions also organise their own separate and flexible applications. In separate applications, you can apply for a degree programme by using its application form. In flexible applications, applicants will be selected based on their applications. The application period ends once a sufficient number of students have been accepted.
People who can apply in separate and flexible applications are typically those who have already completed studies in the field in question. You can apply to some degree programmes without previous studies in the field.
Application periods and methods vary. In flexible applications, application periods are often long.
You can find more information about separate and flexible applications to higher education institutions at the Studyinfo website.
