one query
I am an international student (non-EU) at polytechnics whose study is about finnished except thesis which is pending. My query which I do not want to put at my college is that what if I don't complete the thesis, will I get the resident permit extended on the ground that I have not completed my study? Just a dirty little trick to stay in Finland one more year. Will that work? Thank you for your views and suggestions in advance!

What happens after the studies are completed?
After completing the studies, the student may remain in Finland if he or she can be granted a new residence permit on other grounds. The permit may be granted, for example for continuing studies within the same field or on the basis of family ties or employment.
A foreigner who has received a degree in Finland can also get a residence permit for search for work. The permit can be granted as an extended permit for six (6) months.

The polytechnics' (UAS) Master's programmes require a Bachelor's followed by three (3) years of work experience.
Then again, applying to university Master's programmes... could be an option, but the big question is (and you'll need to check this from the university offering the Master's you'd be interested in) whether your UAS Bachelor's will be recognised as an equivalent of a university Bachelor's...

on the contrary, if I wanted to have the wicked student kicked out, I'd said "sure, go ahead, just say you haven't finished your studies"hackoff wrote:hey you really want to kick all foreigners out of herePursuivant wrote:nope, you get kicked out for the reason you have not done your study.

Re: one query
well you usually have to complete a bachelors degree before you do your masters, unless you are studying under the old system?

Bachelors (or what used to be bachelors) is the same as the beginnings of masters. Same studies, just a couple of years more of those for masters.
Re: one query
^ well that is the thing i am counting on....i can get my basics right in the bachelor and study the master's degree well after that.. right now I am going to do miserable in my master's...!!! now, i just dont know if it is possible...!!!!
