LAB University of Applied Sciences

As a LAB University of Applied Sciences degree student, you have access to plenty of support services to help you navigate through difficulties in studies or personal life. Support services are also designed to help you integrate into Finnish student life and to make sure you have all the information to manage your higher education studies in Finland.

Finland does not have a dormitory system on campuses, but there are housing providers for affordable, effortless, and safe student accommodation in both LAB's campus cities, Lahti and Lappeenranta. Applying for an apartment is the student’s responsibility.

Houses and apartments in Finland are high-quality, well-insulated, and double-glazed as a default. They are designed to keep warm air inside and are therefore well-heated during winters.  

You can find LUT Academic Library on both campuses and online. The academic library has a vast collection of both print and electronic materials to help with your studies.  LUT Academic Library is the joint library of LUT University and LAB University of Applied Sciences. 

The Finnish Student Health Service (FSHS) provides general, mental, and oral health services as well as health promotion services for bachelor’s and master’s degree students in Finland. Students from other EU or EEA countries must provide a European Health Insurance Card for access to FSHS services.
