Flexible right to study

The flexible right to study, also called JOO studies, refers to a previous possibility to apply for the right to study at another Finnish university to complete a study module or individual courses. The granted study rights expire by 31 July 2026 at the latest.

Universities are withdrawing from the JOO agree­ment

JOO study rights already granted to students are valid until the end of their duration. Students may also be granted new study rights under the current JOO agreement during the academic year 2024–2025.

JOO study rights granted in the academic year 2024–2025 must expire at the end of the academic year 2025–2026 (by 31.7.2026) at the latest. Read more about the ending of JOO study rights.
