This publication illuminates the reasons for arranging entrance examinations abroad in pursuance of describing the development and activities of the FINNIPS network...

“At the end of high school, I realized that I am more interested in working with people than sitting in front of a computer,” Hungarian Pal Hodosi says. Therefore, instead of applying to university studies, he started working on a cruise ship that sailed on the Caribbean Sea. And in a few days, he graduates from SAIMIA. Read Pal's story: www.saimia.fi – and remember to apply to study in international degree programmes by 23 January 📚 // Unkarilainen Pal Hodosi lähti lukion jälkeen töihin Karibian-risteilijälle. Mutta miten hän päätyi Imatralle opiskelemaan restonomiksi? Englanninkielinen juttu on luettavissa saimia.fi:stä, ja suomenkielinen versio julkaistaan lähiaikoina. 😊 #SAIMIA #restonomi #student #tourismandhospitality #hospitalitymanagement #restonomi #studyinfinland #finnips #fabulousfinland
