Terve, Oliver! I wanted to know how how hard it's to compete 55-60 ect credit in universities like OAMK for a hardworking student? Also, is there work for students in service sector like cleaning, delivery, posti in Oulu? The info will be really appreciated ❤️

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Thats a great question! This would naturally depend on you personally, but as a hardworking student you should have no problems completing 60 credits per academic year. That is the normative (normal) pace of ones studies and the curriculum has been built to support that 👍. About jobs in the Oulu region, im sure that you can find part-time work there. Oulu is a very large city and an important hub in the northern part of Finland so should have good job opportunities not only during your studies but also after graduation. Im not saying that this is going to be easy, BUT i think it should definitely be possible. I will look into this a bit deeper when i do the research for future videos about job hunting and i hope that ill get you some answers at latest in those videos. How does this sound?

Hey Oliver, I am planning to apply for residence permit with my 1 year of expenses in bank account while I got full scholarship for education. Is it possible to get part time job to support the 2nd year expenses?

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey Sambita and thanks for the great question. This is definitely possible and the finnish immigration service does allow this. However, if you do this, i would advice you to be very mindful with your finances. Make a detailed budget so that you know how much money you need to live in Finland (on top of the mandated 560€/month) and how many hours per month you would need to work in order to reach this sum. Also, if i were you, i would start looking for a job way before the second academic year starts. Especially if you are aiming for a job in your field instead of something like food delivery. Job application processes in Finland do tend to take a while (3-6 months) especially when you apply for your first jobs so just keep this in mind. If you are interested, im actually working on a paid course where i go through everything that you need to know about job hunting in Finland. The goal of the course is to speed up your job hunting process by months. The course is going to be around 5 hours of material so i have to make it paid, but it should pay itself back the second that you get your first pay. Anyways, if you are interested to hear more about this, i have a waiting list that you can sign up for to be the first one to hear when i launch the course (with a discount): forms.gle/aGUeBH6jRzGRLWHDA

Is it possible to take a private student loans or government based grants/loans? I won't be able to work while full-time study, I'll miss classes or fail them.

I don't mind being in great debt taking out private student loans in Finland/US because I do engineering major and able to pay off the debt after getting degree and job to pay the debt.

[@leirianerios4328]

Hi, Oliver. Thanks for the very informative video! A friend who is studying a PhD there recommended your channel for me. I’m graduated in Environmental Engineering (Bachelor) with 5 years of full-time studies. The Bachelor programmes in my university have a lot of subjects in common with Master programmes abroad. That’s why we take longer to graduate, because it’s mandatory. Therefore, do you think that I can go straight to a PhD in Finland? Thanks for the help.

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey Leiriane and thanks for such an interesting question! I have to say that i have not encountered this topic before so i dont have a direct answer to this. My first suggestion is that you should contact interesting universities directly via email because their admission services will know the answer to this 100% sure. However, my gut feeling is that you have to do a separate Master's degree in order to continue to a PhD. This would be most logical for me because even if you have done some courses that are similar to what a Master's degree contains, those are most likely not comparable to a Master's degree per say. Im pretty sure that this is the way it goes because it would feel very weird for me that anyone could continue directly to a PhD without having formally completed a Master's. [update] one thing that came to mind: it might be possible that the Finnish university might accept some of your courses into your Master's degree (if they are equivalent of those that you would do here) however im pretty sure that this will not apply to the majority of courses. Again, you need to check this with the universities directly.

Yeah, unfortunately those kind of degrees arent that common in Finland. I do know that we have excellent sports science degrees at a master's level (at the university of eastern Finland if im not mistaken) but i dont remember too many english taught bachelors level degrees. However, i would encourage you to check out the bachelor's degree programme in physiotherapy at the SAMT university of applied sciences. This programme is in english and its not that expensive considering the scholarship options. While the annual tuition fee is relatively high (almost 10,000€), they have a 50% scholarship for the best 20% of students every year. So if you are committed to study hard, this would be a great option!

[@peterabeshi9450]

OliverR everytime: the simple answer to the question is yes and no

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Too true 😅. Some of the things that i talk about are often overly simplified and the answer always depends on the person asking - so yes and no.

[@caviarmonster9224]

Hello Oliver! I would like to ask your opinion if I could sustain my monthly expenses without having any tuition fees to pay since the programme was free and if I’d be able to find a part time job in a restaurant or in a similar sector would it be sufficient? Thank you my bro.

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Thanks so much for the question. So i get this all the time and i always give the same answer because i dont know people's backgrounds in terms of their previous education and finances. So please bear with me. My general answer to this question is that it is not possible for you to sustain your monthly expenses in the beginning of your studies especially if you live in the capital region. This is because its simply too difficult (to most) to find a job that pays well enough (after taxes) to pay for ones' living costs. There are multiple reasons here so i cant go in depth into the topic. However, take the example of restaurant jobs. Most higher end restaurants (that also pay better salaries) require you to have a vocational degree in hospitality or in the catering business and they do not hire people without such degrees. This does naturally not apply to more low-key places like most cafeterias, fast-food and normal lunch places BUT those places also pay a bit less in salary. Again, this is not as black-and-white as i might make it seem but i think its better for me to stay conservative with my answers because anyone can read these and i dont want to give a too much of a optimistic impression of the situation. Having said all of this, i would also like to note that this situation gets much easier the further you get in your studies. For example, this is not as big of an issue for master's degree students because people doing their master's already have skills that some employers in their fields want to utilise. So the further you get in your studies, the more likely it is that you are able to find a job in the field of your studies - jobs which will inherently pay better. Again - all of this simplifies the issue quite extensively BUT if you want a good rule of thumb, i would say that you should not expect to find a job that pays well enough at least during your first 1,5 years in Finland. If i break this down it would mean that i would not even recommend anyone to APPLY for jobs during their first year (with the exception of summer jobs) and if you start looking for a part-time job at the end of your first year, it will most likely take 3-5 months until you sign your first employment contract. I hope this makes any sense. I do not recommend looking for a job during your first year simply because there are already enough things that you need to get used to in your new life and studies in Finland and adding the pressure of a job on top of that might not be a good idea (just my opinion). Sorry for the rambling answer. I hope you get at least something out of this 😏

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey thilina and thanks for the great question. This topic is a bit too complicated for me to give a meaningful answer so i have to simplify this quite a bit. 1. Yes, you can definitely cover your living expenses with two salaries even if one is part-time. How much you will be able to save for the future would naturally depend on the level of salary for each of you + the level of your living expenses. Do note that your salary is going to be the most expensive part of your monthly costs. 2. As a general rule of thumb, its not easy to find a job as an international person in Finland. This is mostly because you need a lot of information about where, how and when to apply for jobs. However, how difficult it is to find a job would depend on the field and your prior experience. If you are interested, im currently working on a comprehensive job hunting course that will cover everything that you need to know to succeed in your job search in Finland.

Nice channel. I have a question... Is it possible to pay for your tuition by working part time if the annual fees is around 4000 euros to 8000 euros thank you

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey Faridad and thanks for the question. You could do the math by doing the same calculations as i did in this video but by replacing the 12,000€ with 4,000€ or 8,000€. The problem is that i would need to start calculating the approximated taxes for the needed net salaries and it would take me a long time to do this because 4000 and 8000 are pretty far from each other. As a general rule of thumb, it does not matter how low the tuition fees are, you should *not* try to rely on a part-time salary to pay for them. It is simply not realistic especially in the first years of your studies (especially taking into account what i said in the video about the immigration service not allowing you to rely on a salary during the first year of your studies). Doing school full-time is hard enough so trying to cram in 25 hours of work at the same time is, in my personal opinion, not possible. Please take into account that this is why Finnish universities have good scholarship options for non EU and non EAA citizens. If you cant afford paying for tuition, those scholarships are your best bet.

Broda can u make a video on blocked account for finland

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey man and thanks for the suggestion. This is actually not that complicated so i will not be making a separate video about it. In order to apply for a residence permit, you need to have sufficient financial funds to finance your stay in Finland. The exact terms on how much money you need can be found from this website: migri.fi/en/means-of-support The requirement for the bank account in which you need to have those funds is simply that it has to be fully controlled by you. So it cant be an account controlled by e.g. your parents. This is because those funds need to be solely for your living expenses in Finland. Do let me know if i misunderstood the question.

[@deepanshthapa756]

@@RoadtoFinnish thanks for your reply, but if the account is in my home country then dont I have to open an account in finland?

Brother! Is it possible to get fund in Master’s (Economics) without having job experience and publications. I only have IELTS 7 and cgpa 3.5/4.

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey Shawon and thanks so much for the question. Unfortunately its impossible for me to answer this question because of a few reasons: 1) the minimum requirements for scholarships are not publicised by the universities so i cant say for sure how they actually assess the applicants, and 2) your IELTS and GPA are not the only things that are being assessed when considering who should the scholarships be granted to. You would need to ask this question from someone who has practical experience in granting scholarships. Unfortunately i do not have that experience 😕

[@injam_shawon]

Ok brother! Thanks a bunch. One more thing i need to know- how to publish research paper from Economics? I always think it’s more difficult than STEM field. Is it true?

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Oh i think this sounds a bit odd. I dont have any personal experience here because you do not get to publish anything, especially peer-reviewed, as a master's student. So you would need to be a phd student to even think about this. Having said this, i dont see any reason why it would be easier to publich research as a STEM researcher. There is plenty of economics research that is published all the time both from researchers and phd students.

Hi, Oliver! I am travelling to Finland in a week or so. My husband is going to study in Abo Akademi. He already has health insurance. Do I also need to get that since I am a non-student and going as a spouse.

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey Acsah, that is a great question! However, i do not dare giving you an answer since im have not familiarised with the residence permit based on family relations. Please contact the Finnish immigration service (Migri) because they will be able to give you a definite answer: migri.fi/en/moving-to-finland-to-be-with-a-family-member

[@acsah26]

@@RoadtoFinnish Oh, alright! Well, can you please brief me on what documents they can ask at the Helsinki airport?

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Mmm that is also a great question. I would assume they might ask you for documents relating to your husbands education, both of your residence permit etc.. Im not 100% sure but the documents i have listed below are the ones that Aalto university instruct their students to have when they arrive to Finland. I would guess that physical copies are the best: *EU-citizens:* - European Health Insurance Card - letter of acceptance from Aalto - proof of financial means to support your studies (for example Certificate of your Erasmus grant) -f ew passport-sized photographs - prescriptions if you are on medication - some euros (cash). *Non-EU Citizens:* - proof of health insurance, - letter of acceptance from Aalto - proof of financial means to support your studies - few passport-sized photographs - prescriptions if you are on medication and - some euros (cash)

If you want to ask questions about studying in Finland, please ask your questions in the comment section here on KZbin. You can also send me an email using the contact details that are in the video description but please note that i do not have the time to answer most of the emails that im getting. So if you really want an answer to your question, please use the comment section. I simply dont have the time to help people individually.

Hello brother.. I hope you are fine I done my bachelor's degree (first 2 year) from pakistan and now I want to continue my study in finland And a course i choose is hotel management So can I get a scholarship in this course What about the worth of this course in Finland? can i get part time job in this field easily ? Thank you!!!

[@RoadtoFinnish]

I answered your question about the value of this kind of a degree in your other comment. About scholarships: every english taught bachelors and masters degree programme in finland does offer scholarships for their best applicants (so not for everyone). The scholarships, how many there are, how large the scholarships are, when and how to apply for them depend on the school and the degree you are applying for. So please refer to the webpage of the specific school that you are applying to for more detailed information.

[@jahinenan8592]

I got 1510 in SAT and 700 on SAT Math 2. I got GPA-5 out of 5 in high school. Can I expect to get scholarship in Aalto Uni as 100% tuition fee waiver. Or may be at least 50%? Thanks in advance.

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey Jahin and thanks for another great question. Unfortunately i cant say anything about this because i have no information on the minimum requirements for the different scholarships. In addition, this information is not public and universities are not required to share it to the public. Also as a note, if you find anyone saying on the web (e.g. on Reddit) that the minimum SAT score for a scholarship is X or Y, they dont know what they are talking about. This is because the minimum scores vary from year to year. So yes, you might get a benchmark from people who applied previously, but i would not trust those numbers to be true this year. So its impossible to say for sure. However, having said that, you seem to have an excellent background and it seems that you have a good starting point. Again, referring to your earlier question, i would simply apply and see how it goes. This will give you a good idea of what to expect.

[@jahinenan8592]

@@RoadtoFinnish Once again thank you. That just cleared my confusion. Your contents are very helpful. Take cordial love from Bangladesh.

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Absolutely. I would also recommend that if you have any questions about the application process or the scores, you could always try to contact aalto university admission services at [e-mail] . Again, they will not be able to share you any more numbers that they already have on their website but at least they will be able to give you definite answers to many questions regarding the application process itself.

Hello sir, I'm Romil Patel, from -India, I would like to study Bachelor of mechanical engineering in Savonia UAS for September 2021. What about Part time job opportunities in (Kuopio) city????? It's Small or large city????

[@RoadtoFinnish]

Hey man and thanks for the question! First of all, please call me Oliver. We Finns like to keep things quite informal and we do not address each other by our last names or by titles. So no need to call me sir 👍. To your question, its very hard for me to say about part-time job opportunities in Kuopio because i have no personal experience + i would need to know a lot about your personal background and prior work experience. However, what i can say is that you should not rely financially on getting a part-time job during your studies. As i showed in this video, you would need to get a highly paid job in order to pay for your living costs with your salary. Taking into account that you are (presumably) a high school graduate (assuming so because you are applying for a bachelor's degree), it is not realistic to assume that you would find a job in your field before you have progressed significantly with your degree. It is quite normal that people find their first jobs in their field only after their first or second year of studies. This applies to every city in Finland so its not about Kuopio per say. So if you are looking for a part-time job to do alongside your studies, you should be looking at basic, lower level customer service jobs. They do not pay that well in the beginning but its better than nothing.
