Academic
Course recommendations
If you are studying Sport Management then choose the Winterschool which is a really good seminar!!! Good teachers and interesting! If you can avoid Sport Marketing (just the lecturer from England!)cause it´s everything except Sport Marketing...Another thing : avoid "Philosophy of Competitive Sport" (too sleepy!) but you should take Practicum Ball Games because it´s a really good means to learn finnish sports!

Personal comments
Well the cimema is expensive but you can find cheaper prices in some students offices; alcohol is expensive but you can´t change it (or prepare your own wine or beer: it´s really common here!) ank return your bottles to save some money!!!! Show your student card as often as you can! When you arrive don´t buy the first postcards you find just wait and find the cheaper (about 1 FIM)...Believe me I know what I´m talking about!!!
