   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.

   International UAS Exam — pre-identification window
   Hard deadline

   Details

   Published as "from 10 March 2027 at 8:00 Finnish time (UTC/GMT+2) to 12 March 2027 at 15:00 Finnish time (UTC/GMT+2)". You identify yourself in advance in the Candour ID app, using the same passport or biometric EU/EEA ID card whose number you gave on your Studyinfo application — a different document may get your pre-identification rejected. Miss this window and you cannot sit the exam, whatever else you have done.
