Finland has a high level of education. The difference in results between schools is insignificant, and almost all students finish school on time. Preparatory education, secondary education and education of the second stage are free, further education in most cases is also free. It is assumed that everyone, regardless of the level of family income, should have equal opportunities in order to get a quality education and become an active citizen of the country.
For me as for a student it's more interesting to know more about high-education system of this country, so that's what I've found while searching.
Education at the University is a research character. At university, you can get a bachelor’s degree in about three years, and then a master’s degree in about two years. Universities organize training in English in some areas. However, in most programs, training is conducted in Finnish or Swedish.
After obtaining a master's degree, you can continue your education in graduate school and get a PhD degree.
Steps are like everywhere, but it's interesting that mostly high education here is free for locals, there are programs not only in Finnish.
In addition, many educational institutions in Finland offer education for people of all ages that does not lead to a diploma. In most cases, training is intended for adults. Such training is organized in public and civil schools, in summer universities, in educational and in physical education and educational centers.
You can study languages, arts, crafts and communications. As a rule, tuition fees are charged
But in some cases, training in such schools can be provided free of charge. For example, tuition will not be charged if a reading and writing course or other language course is agreed within your integration plan.
It's nice to know that Finland has so many facilities for everyone.
