Regranted study entitlement at Jamk

The study entitlement can be regranted for a maximum of two semesters from the beginning of the next semester. Applying for regranting the study entitlement concerns the students who have started their studies on or after 1 August 2015 and whose study entitlement has expired.  Students who have regained their study entitlement can neither enrol as a non-attending student nor apply for discretionary extension of their study period. In general, it is not possible to regrant the study entitlement for discontinued degree programmes or degree programmes under abolition. It is possible to apply for regranted study right only once per the study right in question.

Regranting the study entitlement is applied via a continuous admission process throughout the year. After a positive decision, studies will start in the beginning of the next semester.

First, contact your Study Counsellor/Tutor Teacher/Programme Coordinator of your field, who will check the situation of your study entitlement, attendance and transcript of records. You will also prepare a personal learning plan (PLP) for completing your degree. The personal study plan is processed as an appendix to the application.

Request for an application form for regranting of study entitlement from Admission Services (admissions@jamk.fi). Pay the application processing fee of 50 € to Jamk’s bank account before submitting your application to Admission Services. The fee in accordance with the decree (A1440/2014, § 3) is charged for processing the application.

Submit the attachments by secure email: https://securemail.jamk.fi/, receiver admissions@jamk.fi or by mail: Jamk/Admission Services, PL 207, 40101 Jyväskylä. 

The Head of the Department and the Student Services Manager will make the decision of approval of regranting the study entitlement. After a positive decision, the studies will start from the beginning of the next semester.

The study entitlement can be lost due expiration of the study period or the discretionary extension of study period, failure to enrol for attendance/non-attendance or discontinuing of studies.

The study entitlement can be granted only to same or similar degree programme in which the earlier study entitlement has been and only to such a degree programme which is available at Jamk’s provision of study opportunities. In addition, the study entitlement can be granted again if a bachelor’s degree student has a maximum of 60 credits left to complete and a master’s degree student 30 credits.

A student must have had begun their studies (beginning from the first enrolment as attending student) not later than 10 years before the new study entitlement begins.

The study entitlement can be regranted for a maximum of two semesters from the beginning of the next semester. Students who have regained their study entitlement can neither enrol as a non-attending student nor apply for discretionary extension of their study period in case they do not complete their studies during two semesters. It is possible to apply for regranted study right only once per the study right in question.

The separate application period at Studyinfo.fi is open twice a year: in spring 2 – 15 May and in autumn 1 – 15 October.
