Cross-institutional courses registration practices are currently undergoing changes as a new national service channel for cross-studies is being gradually implemented in different higher education institutions. HAMK and Turku University of Applied Sciences (Turku UAS) are the first universities to implement the Cross-enrollment service pathway.
Currently, there are two alternative registration methods for cross-institutional courses, and the enrollment method depends on which higher education institution you are enrolling in.
Below, you will find the instructions on how to register for the studies.
The registration methods are:
- Enrollment via Pakki
- Enrollment via the CampusOnline website
Please note that, unlike before, all CampusOnline studies now have institution-specific registration deadlines. Before enrollment, please coordinate your studies with your study counselor.
After registration, you will receive detailed instructions from the higher education institution organizing the course.
Enroll in HAMK’s own courses via Pakki.
I will enroll in CampusOnline courses from Turku UAS
Registration for Turku University of Applied Sciences CampusOnline studies is easily done through Pakki, in the same way you would enroll in HAMK’s own courses. You can also see the registration status in your personal study plan (PSP), and after completing the course, the assessments will be transferred to your study records without the need for recognition of prior learning (RPL) or sharing links from the My Studyinfo webpage.
You can easily find Turku UAS CampusOnline courses through Pakki via your personal study plan (PSP). Familiarize yourself with the course provision well in advance so that you can enroll on time. The instructions for familiarizing yourself with the courses and registering can be found in the Pakki guide. You can also browse the courses on the CampusOnline portal, but register for Turku UAS courses through Pakki.
I will enroll in CampusOnline courses at other universities
You can familiarize yourself with the courses on CampusOnline through the CampusOnline portal. Unlike before, there are now separate registration periods for each UAS on CampusOnline. Please make sure to explore the courses well in advance.
Register for CampusOnline courses according to the course-specific instructions found on the portal.
