The education system in Finland

Moreover, Finnish employers always give preference to those workers who already reside in Finland, as for graduates of Finnish educational institutions the process of obtaining a work permit is much easier.

Finland has a very well-developed system of higher and secondary education. The work of the government is aimed at creating excellent conditions for students from all over the world. For example, after graduation, every foreign student has the right to obtain a residence permit to look for work for a period of 2 years.

In Finland there is one type of vocational secondary school and two types of higher education institutions: universities and universities of applied sciences (UAS).
Study programs in English are offered at Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral levels.

As of 2017, studying in English at Finnish universities is fee-based, but Finland has an incentive system for receiving study grants. Simply put, students who study well get back half to full tuition fees.

By the way, studying at colleges in Finland in English is still free ✊
