Hi Ann! I just got a spot on the University of Eastern Finland (kuopio) to go on Erasmus next year. I will have a salary of about 600 euros/month thanks to the Erasmus scholarship. I've seen students housings nearby That costs around 250 - 300 euros a month. Do you think the remaining 300 euros will be enough to cover most of the other expenses excluding leisure? Than you so much!
Hi! Congratulations on your admission! 😁 I believe 300€ a month for your essential needs is enough. Just don't always eat outside. cook your own food at home. We also have a lot of second hand shops and even roskalava if ever you need something for your house like utensils, tvs, chairs, sofas, tables etc. 🏠
Congratulations on the admission, Kuopio is a nice little city! I'm Finnish and 300€ is around how much an average unemployed person would have for a month after expenses. It should be enough, especially if your student housing covers water+electricity and internet fees. For groceries I recommend using Lidl, prices are slightly cheaper compared to other stores.
Hi, i want to go there as an international student and have a couple of questions: 1. Will the university ( in Kuopio) provide me with a room ( electricity ,water , data included). If yes , then do i have to pay for it or the scholarship/fees will cover it for me? 2. How do you pay or manage your expenses? Do you have a part time job or a full time and how much can i earn? 3. In the earlier times, when you moved to Finland, did your parents and you both managed your finances or just them? And you now manage your expenses now on your own? I'm nervous going there so, your help will mean a lot to me 😊
Hi! These are good questions to ask.. and I'll try to answer it. 1. Student apartments in Finland. Check it out at Study in Finland.fi. I believe you are responsible for paying the monthly rent which costs around 200-300€ a month. 2. Smart Budget. Don't eat out all the time. School lunch is 50% off for students. Some shops offers 10% or more off for students from the total price. For example, subways, transportations, salons, etc. You can actually work and study at the same time. But hours are limited according to the Law, which is 30hrs/week. Check it out at study in finland.fi 3.I have managed my finances since the beginning. I got some help with my siblings but I did not depend on them. I've worked for what I have now, and it was only all possible through God's help and goodness to me. ☺️
Your rent should only be about 25% of your after tax income, otherwise the landlord may think that you cannot afford to pay your rent on time. Also look for weekly specials at the supermarket, you can make some good cost savings on your groceries - I would sometimes shop three times a week to save money.
That's good to know! Thank you for that information and tips! 😁 it may also be, that you can afford the rent even after that 25% tax, but they would still see your bank loans and credits before they will choose you as their tenant ☺️
Hi! I'm so sorry for the late reply, I won't be able to give a concrete answer, but I can say that a monthly budget for groceries for that number of family members would be atleast 300-400€/month. And you can have your groceries in LIDL it's one of the Budget friendly shop in Finland ☺️
One last question i have been accepted in samk colleage of nursing ? Based on your opinion is theres good opprtunities for work after graduation? Also its salary worth?

Hi! Learning the language is promoted in Finland Even Though most of the locals know how to speak English, they use Finnish in the workplace. If you will be applying for a job, they will be requiring you to atleast have a. A.1-B.1.1 language level skill. ☺️
@@MkBusiness-c9e Hi! Congratulations that you have been qualified as a chef here in Finland! 😁 The minimum wage for chefs here in Finland varies. It depends what city you are going to work in, what setting you will work for : restaurant, hotel , ships etc. but according to this website the basic salary for a chef would be : palkkavertailu.com/palkka/kokki

I'm sorry , but I can't really tell anything much for that field in my channel 😅 but I believe that in Finland, Physiotherapists are well-educated, professionals, and if you go to the government hospitals, it may be free of costs or half of the price, only if you are a resident in Finland. It is quite costly to go to a private physiotherapist or clinics in Finland ☺️

I agree too ☺️☺️ coming from Asia, and with the salary, it just doesn't match the price of commodities to live. In Europe, we can still survive because our salary can still buy your needs and home ☺️
