Nowadays, there shouldn’t be any troubles of getting any information. Everything I wanted to know, I checked before either on the Internet, or through school or Embassy.

Personal recommendation
Students should be prepared to work hard throughout the whole semester. There are a lot of cases, essays and project to write, what usually takes a lot of time. Nevertheless, the final exams are very easy.

I had a really good time there. However everybody should be aware of the fact that a lot depends on the people you are there with!

This is really a great place if you are a social person. The other exchange students were like family here, you really depend on each other. It is a very small city, and a small school, so you will be seeing the same people every day! I enjoyed this aspect, as I developed very good friendships with a number of people, where in a larger school i might meet more people but not know these people as well.

Travelling from Finland is not so convenient. There are not so many low cost airlines. However there are interesting places which the average tourist would not see such as Russia, Estonia, Latvia, and Lapaland.

You have to know that in Finland rules are rules, if you are able to understand that fact, everything is going to go great.

You should travel to Talin (Estonia), Stockolm and San Petesburg. Finland is a good place to travel arround as well. There are many ways to reach your travel aims, train, bus, Ferry, but you shouldn't forget your student card and you should try to get the Finnish student car as well to get discounts.

HSE is a very good business school, has a high international reputation, and offers a lot to its students. The student organization, KY, is excellent and organizes many social events. Each exchange student gets two tutors, who take care of you and help you throughout your stay. HSE is a very good school and I would chose it again if I could.

Do as much as you can and participate in all KY events and trips! From Helsinki you can easily go to Tallinn, Sweden, or St. Petersburg. Finland itself is a very beautiful and interesting country with friendly people and many cultural habits! Take your chance and enjoy a very bright and hot summer and a very dark and cold winter.
