Bachelor's degree orientation - Lahti
The next Bachelor's degree orientation in Lahti will take place in 19.-22.8.2025 and Student Fair in 29.8.2025.
The orientation sessions, common to all programmes, are held on campus. Orientation can also be attended remote if an accepted prohibitive reason out of your control demands it, and you are not able to be on campus. However, on-site participation is strongly recommended. There is no possibility to attend the programme specific orientation sessions remotely.
Meanwhile you may already join our Newcomers group to get to know other new students and also meet some of our current students. Instructions for joining are on Starting Studies -page.
