Course enrolment info

RIPA will gradually replace the CampusOnline portal and enable smoother cross-institutional studies and data transfer between higher education institutions.

At the moment, some universities of applied sciences have already started taken advantage of RIPA. Schedule for the introduction of RIPA is specific to each UAS, for further information please visit your own university’s intranet or contact your study office. Currently during this transition phase, each course description in the CampusOnline portal states if students from certain universities of applied sciences already can enroll to the course in question through their own enrolment system. Before enrolment, please check the course information for the correct enrolment method. Read more: https://campusonline.fi/en/ripa-enables-smoother-cross-institutional-studies/

– If your home education institution uses RIPA already, you see the course selection intended for you and you can register in the student administration system of your home institution (Peppi).

– If your home institution does NOT yet use the RIPA service, please register for this course via the e-form.

NOTE! PLEASE DO NOT REGISTER FOR OUR COL-STUDY COURSES VIA BOTH PATHWAYS. If you are enrolled in both channels (RIPA and e-form), we will have to delete your enrolment completely.

All enrolments will be approved. Applications for this nonstop-course are processed in the next two weeks, but not processed during the Christmas break or July. When your enrolment has been processed, the Student Services Secretary will send you a message with instructions on how to activate the SAMK student identifier to the email address you provided in the application form.

You will get an automatic reply to the email address you provided in the electronic form. Check the spam.
