Hello!
Join us in developing the University of Vaasa's external website – respond to the survey by 31 January:
Arrival
International students will be able to get help with arrival from the international tutors if arriving according to agreement with the tutors. You will receive more information about the arrival instructions closer to the start of your studies.
We recommend to avoid arriving on weekends or on public holidays. On those days our offices and the housing providers' offices are closed and international tutors are not necessarily available. Even when arriving during a weekday, please note the office hours if you plan on collecting your key on the day of arrival.
