Hi,

entrance examinations are USUALLY arranged only in Finland. Some universities of applied sciences, however, may have arranged exams abroad (in some Asian countries for example, perhaps also in some African countries?) but as far as I know, whether an examination might be arranged in country X depends on the amount of promising applicants from that particular country, and is totally at the discretion of the institutions themselves. Some institutions will only arrange the examinations in Finland.

You'd be best advised to contact the admissions offices, since they would probably know better.

the reason for the visa denial was because of the population and corruption in the country that people will travel for the exam and wont come back again.
If that is the case, even when you're accepted in a uni, it will be doubtful if you'll get a visa for studying.
(you have been rejected once already)

Hi,

sorry but what exactly is your request...? I can't advise you any better than with the words I already wrote...

As for what they're going to ask you in the exam, I simply don't know.

Good luck anyway :wink:
