LUT and LAB degree students

Tuition is free of charge for LUT and LAB degree students (bachelor's, master's, doctoral). However, the students must cover the cost of social activities they wish to attend (sauna evenings, cruise on Lake Saimaa, get-togethers, etc.): EUR 99 for 1 week, EUR 139 for 2 weeks or EUR 169 for 3 weeks. The cost does not include lunch at the university.

Registration is binding. LUT and LAB students may cancel their participation no later than two weeks before the summer school starts. Otherwise, they will be charged EUR 50 for neglecting to cancel their registration.

If we receive a very large number of applications from beyond LUT/LAB, we will need to start selecting LUT/LAB students for the limited places available to them. For the screening process, we may review transcripts of study records.
