Annual registration for Academic year 2026–2027

As a student at the University of Oulu, you must register for all your Study rights as present or absent during your academic year. Only as a registered student you can complete your studies, receive study guidance and graduate.

The academic year registration for continuing students for the academic year 2026–2027 is open from May 4th to September 4th, 2026.

If you are a new student, please make sure to register as either present or absent by August 12th, 2026, at 3:00 PM at the latest.

Registration is done electrically through the OILI registration service for each study right separately.

Contact your own Faculty's Study Services, if

  • you are unable to register with the OILI registration service.
  • you have already accepted your Study Right in 2025, but you have been absent due to military service or other statutory reasons.
  • you are required to pay tuition fees (Electronic registration is not available).

Student healthcare fee for higher education students

The healthcare fee, which entitles students to FSHS services, is paid to Kela each semester. No invoice is sent for the healthcare fee, instead, it must be paid proactively through OmaKela. All students who have registered as present and are pursuing a lower or higher university degree are required to pay the fee.

You can find more information about academic year registration and fees on the "For Students" website.
