Step by Step Guide to Apply Finland

Axiom offers professional guidance to Bangladeshi students who intend to study in Finland. We’ll be with you on each step from the initial general consultations to arriving in the country.

We’ll review your academic, professional and financial circumstances along with your future study and career plan. According to your needs, we’ll assist you in selecting a suitable course, place of study & all other related issues. You’ll get proper guidance from us, which will fully comply with the updated visa requirements.

Our dedicated and well-experienced counselors are always ready to assist you in every step, such as your first visit to our office, admission, visa procedure etc. until your departure to your desired destination.

The typical procedure that you must take before starting your study in Finland is as follows:

Attend a counseling session at Axiom to find out your options relating to study destination, scholarship options, courses available and recommended institutions.

 Discuss language proficiency requirements

 Discuss eligibility requirements for admission

 Discuss the amount of money required to study your higher study

Register with Axiom to start the admission and visa process. We can help you navigate through the various processes and make studying overseas easier. Remember, all our services are free of charge!

Once you’ve decided what and where you want to study, your Axiom education advisors help you-

 Complete the application to the institutions of your choice.

 Prepare application documents

 Arrange to send the application fee

We’ll also provide you with a checklist for the documents.

At the time of application for admission, you’ll be required to submit several documents including proof of previous academic qualifications and, in most cases, proof of your English language ability.

Prepare & appear for Standardized Admissions Tests and join AGI (Axiom Global Institute) to sit for the exams required for the application. E.g.

 Examination for Finnish University Admission for International Students (EFU)

 Finnish-language Proficiency Test (FLPT）

 TOEFL®, IELTS, TOEIC

By submitting your application through us you’ll be able to track the progress of your application as we send you automatic notifications of its progress. We also take the hard work out of tracking the applications by keeping in contact with the institution on your behalf.

After submitting your application for admission, you’ll need to undertake a medical examination by one of the doctors approved by the Finnish Government.

 Proof of payment of tuition and accommodation fees

 A letter from the person or institution providing you with money

 Proof of funding paid from within Finland if you have a scholarship or are in a Finnish-funded educational program.

To accept your offer from an education provider, you must pay the tuition fee. Most Finnish institutions require you to pay the first year fee only. You can choose to pay this fee through either Telegraphic Transfer (TT) or Direct Debit (DD). Our value-added services department at Axiom Education Advisor can help you arrange either of these payment methods.

To accept your offer from an education provider, you must pay the tuition fee as advised by the institution.

Once the institutions have received and processed your tuition fee payment, they’ll issue you with receipt. This receipt will be needed to lodge your visa application.

All set to study abroad in Finland but not sure what to do about your student visa? 

So you’ve got your heart set on studying in Finland, but before you can embark on that journey you’ll need to get your student visa sorted. The process might seem complicated, but we’ve broken it down into easy steps.

An international student wishing to study in Finland must apply for a visa in person. To lodge your visa application you’ll need to provide the recommended documents specified by the Embassy of Finland in Bangladesh.

N.B. Except for passport and photos, every document should be provided (original and 1 photocopy).

Axiom will keep you updated as to the progress of your application and take the hard work out of tracking your application by keeping in contact with the visa office on your behalf.

In Finland, a student visa is known as a Study Permit. To lodge your visa application you’ll need to provide the documents outlined in the checklist we provided you in step 8.

Just like your admission application, Axiom Consultants will keep you updated as to the progress of your application and take the hard work out of tracking your application by keeping in contact with the visa office on your behalf.

We’ll notify you as soon as we know the outcome of your visa application so you can come in and collect your grant letter. In most cases, this is a positive response and it means you can also start planning your travel and accommodation for Finland.

At Axiom, we can help you organize your travel arrangements to begin your new student life in Finland. Axiom offers help and advice with sorting out suitable student accommodation, booking travel, opening a bank account, insurance and foreign exchange can all be arranged through us to make studying overseas easier!
