Important notice regarding student recruitment agents

Jamk University of Applied Sciences works with two officially appointed student recruitment agents and Student Recruitment Officers (SROs), who will begin their roles in autumn 2026. These are the only representatives authorized to provide information about Jamk's degree programmes and the application process on behalf of the university.

Jamk does not cooperate with any other student recruitment agents or agencies. We encourage prospective students and applicants to verify any information they receive by contacting Jamk directly or by consulting the list of our official representatives on this website.

All applicants are treated equally throughout the admissions process. Using an education agent does not provide any additional rights, advantages, or priority in admission decisions.
