What to do before and during the academic year?

During summer

• Accept the offered degree position and pay the membership fee to the student union.
• Find an apartment! TOAS and Opintanner offer affordable apartments for students.
• Order a student card. By student card you may buy lunch at a student-friendly price, print in school computer classes, and get access to school even in the evenings!
• Take a look at the student unions’ magazine, Fuksianturi.
• Get in touch with your tutor! They’ll help you with your arrival to Finland in any way they can. This may include picking up your keys, picking you up from the airport or centre, and showing you your apartment, campus and shops near you.
• Find us in social media:
  • We have a number of different Bioner-associated groups in Facebook – it may be difficult to find the right ones, so do not hesitate to ask from tutors or fuksicaptains!
  • Follow Bioner in Facebook and Instagram!

During semester

During the first weeks we take care of everything. Your job is to arrive to the introduction lectures and afterwards your tutors will be waiting for you and will help you with all the administrative matters and show you around the campus. During the semester students also have the opportunity to get the guild’s overalls. Your tutors will be informing you about the ways to get them and when they will be available.
