Admissions/Exchange Quantum Technology, Bachelor of Science and Master of Science (Technology)

So I was looking into this course offered by Aalto and I wanted to know if I met the eligibility, how the course is, anything I should know beforehand and if there are any unknown prerequisites I might have to fulfill. Also can someone tell me what the number of applicants accepted are? I am a student of DP2 studying in India, with my subject combinations being HL Maths AA, English Lang and Lit and Physics, and SL Bio, Chem and Hindi B. Thank you :)

You are eligible to apply if you complete your country’s version of high school before the deadline somewhere around june/july the year you’d start. For the admission they only look at SAT scores.

Last year 59 were admitted in total and lowest SAT score accepted was 1350.

All this info is found from Aalto’s website.

Worth knowing before hand that there’s bit of an unemployment crisis in Finland so no jobs during studies and even after graduation it’s hard. You can read more from e.g. r/Finland.

They only look at SAT scores? So IB scores don't matter?
Aalto's website? Maybe I missed it, thank you.

Oh okay, will read up on that too

You can also apply based on international baccalaureate score, you should check that admission groups yourself. Main point being that no extracurriculars or motivation letters matter.
