Here in Lukkari you can see the exact schedules by searching with the course codes (code in the search field -> the course's info button -> the tab "Reservations").

It might take a while to get your study points after a course. Students from VAMK and ÅA will get their study records sent automatically to their universities. For the other universities (Hanken, Novia, HY), students will get their study records sent to them, and they will then have to take the study records to their own university's student administration office for registration. 

If you have questions about the courses or registration, please contact Sannina Sjöberg.
