1. Get acquainted with ULapland study offer in English and prepare a study plan

• Consult our course overview and discuss your choices with your home coordinator.

• We recommend applying for some extra courses, in case some courses are not available, timetables with your other course choices overlap or you should not be qualified for a certain course.
• ULapland requires minimum 25 ECTS credits of studies per semester unless otherwise agreed with the student’s home institution.
  

The study offer is published usually in April for the coming academic year and it will be uploaded in this section when ready. The timetables are available only in the beginning of August. If you are planning your studies before the study offer is published - don't worry, just orient with the previous year's study offer. It seldom changes radically.
