Forfeiting Study Right

It is possible to forfeit any degree or non-degree study right with a notification to the Student Centre Disco.

• It is possible to forfeit all or only one study right at the University.
• The notification is binding and if one wants to apply for the same study right at a later time, he/she is subject to the normal student admission process.
• In case there has been a fee for the studies, the fee will be refunded only if the studies are cancelled for reasons related to programme management or the University. In some cases, the Student Union of the University of Turku may refund membership fees already paid for the term or academic year. There are deadlines for applying for a refund. Further information is available on the Student  Union's website.
• Study rights are valid until the date of delivery of the notification to the Student Centre Disco. If the form or its attachments are incomplete, the date on which the missing information is submitted to the Student Centre will be recorded as the date on which your study right ends.
