Planning your studies

Study plan

Planning your studies ensures that your studies progress smoothly. Your most important tool is a personal study plan (HOPS) for planning the contents and timing of the studies towards your degree. Once your personal study plan has been approved, you know that the courses you have selected meet the degree requirements. Creating the study plan is mandatory in the beginning of your studies. You must add courses to your primary study plan in order to register for them. You also cannot graduate without an approved personal study plan.

Normative duration of studies and applying for a study right extension

The normative duration of studies is three years for a bachelor's degree, and two years for a master’s degree. If you were admitted to a master’s degree, you have four years to complete the degree. If you were admitted to both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree, you have a total of seven years to complete both degrees.

The duration of studies is counted from the time the you enrol as present (attending) at the university. Students have a right to certain absences that do not expend their duration of studies. Absence refers to time when the student has enrolled as non-attending.

If you have not completed your degree within this target schedule, but still want to complete it, you may apply for an extension to your right to study.

Before applying for an extension to your right to study, please familiarise yourself with:

  • Aalto University policy on extension to duration of studies
  • the general instructions for applying for an extension
  • the instructions of the School of Science for applying an extension.

Applying for extension to the right to study in the School of Science

If you have not completed your degree within the maximum duration of study, but wish to do so, you must apply for extension to your right to study. You receive a letter from the school approximately one year before your right to study expires. The letter gives instructions and the deadline for applying. The earliest time you can apply is the beginning of that term when the right to study expires.

Applications are dealt with twice a year. The application must be submitted

  • by 15.11. if the right to study expires 31.12.
  • by 30.4. if the right to study expires 31.7.

Please apply for an extension of study right only when you have the possibility and intention to study and finish your degree.

An extension of study right is not granted just in case. You should apply only when you are certain that you cannot finish your studies by the end of your study right (either by 31 July or 31 December).
