Transfer Students

Use transfer application if you want to change your right to study for a bachelor’s or master´s degree from another Finnish UAS to KAMK UAS, or you want to change your degree programme within KAMK UAS thus that the targeted degree or degree title changes.

Starting from 1 Jan 2025, applicants from outside the EU, EEA or Switzerland are required to pay an application fee in order to apply to higher education studies. Read more about the application fee.

The tuition fee is charged from non-EU/EEA students who have started their studies in degree programmes offered in English on 1 August 2017 or after that. Read more about the tuition fees and scholarships at KAMK.

If you wish to change within KAMK UAS from, for example, an business degree programme to another business degree programme (e.g. Esports to International Business), it is not a transfer application but an internal transfer, the procedures of which are defined in the degree regulations.
