These reports provide data on applicants and admissions to higher education since 2015.
Note! Some of the reports are subject to data protection measures. In that case numbers of 1-4 persons are shown as "1-4" and larger numbers are rounded to the nearest multiple of three. Percentages are calculated using the protected numbers.
Applicants and those who accepted a place in a higher education institution
The
reports include applicant data in the higher education joint
application system and the separate application system. By default, the
data selection is limited to the joint application system statistics.
Data for the 'All applicants' indicator has been adjusted so that an
individual can appear only once per row. The same individual may be
included more than once in different rows. In the reports, a first-time
applicant refers to those who have not previously attained a Finnish
higher education degree, and who have not accepted a study place leading
to a degree at a Finnish university or polytechnic in 2014 or later.
Due to an update to the fields of education and the Field of education, HE steering made on July 5th, 2022, some fields might differ from the previous ones. The update does not concern all fields.
