Dear Ignacio,

The Finnish Academy of Fine Arts has no scholarships for international students. The next application period for applying  for the Academy is next spring 2014.

Living costs for a single student in Helsinki area are about 800-1000 euro a month. It is highly recommended that international students arrange adequate funding for the entire study period before leaving their home country. Students cannot count on financing studies in Finland by working. Nor has the Academy of the Fine Arts any scholarships for international applicants.
