Orientation for incoming exchange students
Joint Orientation of Autumn 2024 on August 29 – 30, 2024
Savonia arranges the joint orientation for the new incoming exchange students in the beginning of the semester. The orientation contains a lot of useful information related to both practical and academic aspects of your stay and is planned to help you cope with the flow of new information: You will get to know Savonia, practicalities and of course the other exchange students and the student tutors. During the orientation you will also be instructed to make the course enrollments. The joint orientation days will be organized on Microkatu Campus. We highly recommend that everyone participates in the orientation!
