Amazing and very good organisation: from the arrival of the exchange student to his departure, administration/tutors/teachers take care of him and get him to know and experience through various programs (buddy, host families...) not only the local but international environment.

Final comments
Being a exchange student is probably one of the most wonderful things one can experience in his whole life. I would warmly recommend this experience to anybody clever enough to appreciate such an experience. It is although needed to be able to stay far from home and to be responsible, but gives you a great opportunity to become stonger, and to build up and open your mind .

Jyväskylä is a very warm city in social terms. There are several events to promote the exchange between different cultures. Also, because it´s a student city and not very big, you easily feel like you are at home. The courses are very up-to-date and the teachers create a very interactive and good environment in classes.

try to go in August to participate in the intensive Finnish course! Don't study all the time, use the weekends to travel around: Lapland, Helsinki, Tampere, Turku, the snow castle in Kemi, make a cruise to Sweden, go to Estonia and don't miss St.Petersburg and Moscow... and who knows, may be you meet someone very special in Suomi

Traveling by train is quite cheap (for students), so use the possibility to visit at least Helsinki and Turku. If there is any possibility for you to travel to lapland, make it!
