In the examination, the applicants' logical and mathematical thinking and the knowledge of English will be tested. A group interview will be part of the entrance examination. The ability to communicate fluently in English is a prerequisite for admission. Therefore, applicants must pass this part of the examination to be selected for admission.

Model of the entrance question for Finland
Dear friend, as the exam date is fixed for April 17,but i don't have actual knowledge about the questions to be asked ..could you please help me by providing some of the model questions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am glad to find your site after hours of surfing. It is very helpful for those interested to study in Finland.I have my friend who has just received a invitation letter from Vaasa for entrance examination on 23 April,2008. We are at present in Germany as student. As, he has no any problem to travel to Vaasa for entrance as being in Schengen States. He is quite curious about the questions that will be asked in exam. He has a IELTS score of 6.5. Will they only ask in the field of language ,maths, essay writing and logical questions(General knowledge) ?
I would be very grateful if I am able to even get a single hint for it. Oh by the way, he has applied for Bachelor of Hospitality Management ( degree for tourism).I look forward to having your response.
Hi Friends,
In deed, the question pattern differs by the college individually. The Entrance is not uniform for all of the colleges. So, the best guidance could be only from the college authority. But, if they prefer to hide the entrance detail, get prepared only for general subjects you studied on +2 level. English test, logical and mathematical thinking is common for all of the degrees. There will be certainly some mathematics and basic science questions for IT and engineering. General Knowledge questions include some computer basic questions and general logical questions. Rest could not be told friend. So, if you would like to be assured about the model of the question, please try to convince the college. If you have applied for Business Degree, read another one post by me for detail structure of Entrance Examination for this year.
One thing more, there won't be any long answer questions. Only short questions which requires maximum of 4-5 sentences and majority of the questions will be objective one.
Do you know any Nepalese living in Vaasa?
After getting your mail, I contacted one of my friend of Vaasa and asked him what was asked on his Entrance, he also told me that only general mathematics, English and General logical questions were asked. But, his program was different than the one which you have applied for. Don't worry so much about entrance, it is not a big headache.More click here

Why Finland
Finland is a welfare state with the aim of securing for its 5.2 million inhabitants equal opportunities for a good life and for the most efficient use of its resources as possible.
The geopolitical location between West and East has always been reflected in the country’s events and goings on. With this combination of western and eastern influences, Finnish culture has developed into something strong and highly individual. Just like the Finns themselves. In the section Finnish Way of Life you’ll find basic information about Finland and the Finns.
We have also chosen some photos to show you how Finland looks like. In the Stories section students who have already chosen Finland give their answers to the question “Why Finland?”
