Changing the degree programme within Haaga-Helia UAS

Katseita opettajuuden äärellä

Changing to a different degree programme means that the title of the degree doesn’t change due to the change of the degree programme.

A student may, on special grounds, apply for a change from one degree programme to another, provided that the principle of one study place per term in higher education is observed and the title of the degree does not change due to the change of the degree programme. The student must submit an application stating the grounds for the request to the degree director in charge of the desired degree programme, who will then decide on the student’s admission.

In addition, if there are strong grounds for doing so, a student may change from a programme conducted in English to a programme in the same field conducted in Finnish, or vice versa. The decision concerning the change is made by the degree director in charge of the degree programme.

A student may have only one study right in force in the same degree programme/degree.

Eligibility requirements

The applicant must meet the following criteria in order to be eligible for the change:

  • The applicant has made systematic progress in their studies and is progressing according to the statutory study-time. Only students from second semester onwards can be eligible for the change (the applicant needs to have enough credits to prove that they has made systematic progress in their studies).
  • The applicant attends and passes an interview when needed.
  • The change does not create additional study entitlement and the remaining time is sufficient for the student to earn the degree.
  • The applicant meets the admission criteria of the degree programme/degree in question. NB some degree programmes/degrees have their own admission criteria in addition to the common eligibility requirements. The degree programme/degree specific criteria can be found from the info box 'Applying', linked to the degree.
