To register as an attending basic degree student for the Aalto University, you must pay the Aalto University Student Union (AYY) membership fee. The membership fee for AYY’s basic degree students includes the mandatory Finnish Student Health Service (FSHS) health care fee, which entitles you to use the services of the FSHS health centers. Other fees are optional (membership fees for guilds for example).
As a member of the Student Union, you are entitled to many benefits and discounts. You may order a student ID card, and you are entitled to discounts on public transport (VR and Matkahuolto). You are also entitled to the student meal subsidy and to use the health care services of the FSHS.
If you already have a username and password for WebOodi (the University’s study portal, https://oodi.aalto.fi), you should pay your membership fee and enroll for the academic year using it. You must pay the membership fee as an online payment via your online bank or using a credit card, and your enrollment will be registered to the student register automatically.
The enrollment period for the academic year 2019-2020 starts on the 2nd of May and ends on the 6th of September 2019. You should register as attending or non-attending for the full academic year.
There is also a separate registration period for the spring semester of 2020, during which you can change your registration information if necessary. The enrollment period for the spring semester of 2020 starts on the 25th of November 2019 and ends on the 10th of January 2020.
Please note that students may change their status from non-attending to attending also outside the enrollment period, but changing the status from attending to non-attending is only possible during the enrollment period.

Primary enrollment method (payment via WebOodi)
The enrollment is primarily done via WebOodi by paying the mandatory and voluntary fees using your online banking account details. This way, your payment and enrollment will be registered to the student register automatically.

In this case, you must deliver the receipt to your school’s Student Services Office before the end of the enrollment period in order to have your registration entered in the student register. The archive code must be stated in the receipt. Send the receipt via email along with your name and student number. You can also deliver the receipt personally to the Student Services Office. You can find the details and opening hours for the Student Services Offices at https://into.aalto.fi/display/contact/Contact.
You can also send the receipt via email to opiskelijapalvelut@aalto.fi. If you do this, your payment will be processed and registered to the WebOodi system.
