Facts

Name: Niki Heikkonen Campus: Alta Country of origin: Finland Exchanged from: Karelia University of Applied Sciences Exchange period: Autumn 2023 (August - December)

My time in Alta was amazing! I got to experience the beautiful nature and landscape of the Arctic North.

Even though I wasn't that far away from my home of Finland, Alta felt like it was truly a magical place to live at. Studying in UiT was special, in a way of teaching methods.

Sometimes we studied outside and actually did the stuff that we were learning about.

I highly recommend you to apply to UiT for the perfect experience of a student exchange. Velkommen til Norge!!
