Checklist for returning students: Start here
Are you planning to recommence your studies after a break? Great! To ensure a smooth return, we have put together a list of the most important practical matters you should deal with right away.
Reinstatement of a study right
As a student, you must register as attending or non-attending for every academic year, during the registration period. If you do not complete the registration, you will lose your study right.
Forgotten registration and re-enrolment fee
If you do not register for attendance or non-attendance during the registration period, you will lose your study right at the University of Helsinki. The process for reactivating your study right depends on the timing of your application for readmission.
