Deadlines

  1. 21 January 2027

    Joint application closes, 15:00 Finnish time
    Hard deadline
    Details

    The national window, on Studyinfo.fi, closing at 15:00 Finnish time on 21 January. Six months before IB results, so you apply on predicted grades. Aalto, the University of Helsinki and LUT are not in it: each runs its own application (Aalto closes on 22 January, Helsinki's IB group on 23 March, LUT's rolling admission on 30 April). Åbo Akademi's bachelor's programmes are in the second joint application, in March.

    One form, maximum six programme choices. Opens 7 January 2027 at 08:00 and closes 21 January 2027 at 15:00 Finnish time (UTC+2). Studyinfo's own record of the joint application ("Joint Application to Higher Education, Spring 2027", run by the Finnish National Agency for Education) gives exactly that, and Tampere, Metropolia, Jamk, Xamk, Study in Finland, Jyväskylä, Turku, Oulu and Arcada agree. Aalto is not part of it: its English-taught bachelor's programmes have their own application on Studyinfo, open 7 January 08:00 to 22 January 2027 15:00. Both dates are right; they are two different applications.

What it is

You study air transport management, airline and airport operations, revenue management, air cargo and safety and risk management, along with service design, branding, human resources leadership and logistics. Teaching uses interactive classes and real projects with international aviation stakeholders, and you can do an internship or exchange abroad before finishing with a thesis. The school has close to 200 partner institutions worldwide, studies run by day on the Porvoo campus, and there is an online option for people working alongside. Graduates go into airline and airport operations, cargo logistics, revenue management, customer experience and travel services.

What you need

  • In the January joint application most places go on certificates, so your IB grades decide. Sports Coaching and blended International Business use entrance exams instead. You must also prove English.
