Student services

Student Union of the University of Oulu[10] ({{lang-fi|Oulun yliopiston ylioppilaskunta}}; OYY) provides services to and supervises the interests of all undergraduate degree students in the University of Oulu. All bachelor's and master's degree students in the University of Oulu belong to the Student Union. By paying the Student Union membership fee students are entitled for a student card which allows them to get student services and discounts. This way, students get inexpensive or free medical and dental care from Finnish Student Health Services,[11] ({{lang-fi|Ylioppilaiden terveydenhoitosäätiö}}; YTHS) traveling discounts in trains and buses, student meals reduction etc.

There are a number of students organizations or so called student guilds[12] presented within the university.

Student housing

Student Housing Foundation of Northern Finland[13] ({{lang-fi|Pohjois-Suomen opiskelija-asuntosäätiö}}; PSOAS) is the leading provider of student accommodation in Oulu. The organization operates on a foundation basis which ensures affordable rents for students. Following its mission, PSOAS offers housing services for people studying in Oulu as cheaply as possible. The residents of PSOAS houses in different areas around the city elect tenant committee for that area, which e.g. organises different activities, maintains club rooms and does other related issues, depending on the active members.[14]

The new international student house, named Aurora, was built next to PSOAS housing office in downtown Oulu. The building was finished during the spring of 2013. The house is supposed to be accommodated both by international degree students and Finnish students. The main purpose of the new building is to support the internationalization of Oulu and give the international students a better access to Finnish culture and local people. The premises will also support these efforts: More space is dedicated for casual get-togethers, as there is a lounge space on every floor and a café of high level will be serving both Finnish and foreign customers on the ground floor.[15][16]
