As from 1.1.2017 Finnish Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are obliged to charge tuition fees from students coming from countries outside the EU or the EEA.

In a nutshell, putting a price on education also changes the way education is marketed and means that we have to be more active towards the fee paying students as the competition between universities is increasing.
