Application to further education after comprehensive school (basic education)
Applicants, candidates selected and those who accepted a place for upper secondary education and preparatory education in the joint application system
Starting from the joint application in Spring 2022 (to education beginning in Autumn 2022), the joint application to upper secondary education and preparatory education after comprehensive school contains general upper secondary education, initial vocational qualification, vocational upper secondary qualification as special needs education, preparatory education for programmes leading to an upper secondary qualification (TUVA), preparatory education and training for work and independent living (TELMA), and folk high school programmes intended for students who are required to attend compulsory education. Data for previous years contain data from the joint application systems for vocational and general upper secondary education.
The number of available places of study in rolling admission can be seen on the report if the education provider has uploaded the data to Studyinfo. Application and admission data can be seen on the report if the education provider has organised the application through Studyinfo and updated the admission data to the student admission register.
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.
The 'Applicants completing comprehensive school (basic education)' report only includes data on those applicants who have completed comprehensive school and whose data was transferred to the Studyinfo portal by basic education providers before the beginning of the joint application period, and those applicants who have completed their compulsory education and whose data was not transferred to the portal, but who nevertheless applied through the joint application system. This means that the data does not cover the whole age group of those who completed their compulsory education. The applicant data also includes those who completed their education conditionally or failed their grade, but who applied for further education.

Applicants, admitted students and those who accepted an offer of admission to preparatory training
The reports provide information on applicants to preparatory training following basic education. Data for the 'All applicants' indicator has been netted so that an individual can appear only once per the Totals row and more than once on all other rows.
The application was arranged for the last time in spring 2021. From 2022 onwards, the preparatory education following basic education is a part of the joint application system to upper secondary education and preparatory education so these reports won't be updated after 2021.

Aggregate data for applications to the upper secondary level in spring
The reports provide aggregate data from the joint application system for vocational education and training and general upper secondary education, applications to the preparatory training following basic education and vocational education and training provided as special needs education (including their supplementary application rounds).

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.
