Social assistance can be an option for students without earnings or financial aid during the summer
Students can get financial aid in the summer, provided that they will be studying during the summer months. Students who do not have a summer job and cannot get financial aid during the summer can apply to Kela for basic social assistance.
Student financial aid, consisting of the study grant and the student loan, is the principal form of assistance available to students. Students who have access to a student loan must use their loan funds before applying for social assistance.
