University Chaplain

University chaplains serve students regardless of stage of studies, outlook on life, religion, nationality or life situation. The contact information of the chaplains is in the student intranet, which requires logging in with Laurea’s credentials.

Services that do not apply to continuing education students

Open University of Applied Sciences studies, continuing education and specialisation education are not education leading to a degree, so they do not entitle to study support or other study social benefits such as student housing, Kela meal allowances or travel discounts.

Students participating in courses are not entitled to the services of a school psychologist and a special education teacher. If it is possible to buy meals at a reduced price on Laurea’s campuses during the courses, this has been announced separately in connection with each course.
