The monthly student loan amount stated in Kela’s student financial aid decision cannot be raised. However, if you switch to another educational institution or change your country of study and are therefore entitled to a bigger student loan, you can apply for an adjustment to Kela’s student financial aid decision. Your student loan amount is stated in the student financial aid decision and it may be between 300 and 650 euros a month, or up to 800 euros a month if you’re studying abroad. The size of your student loan depends on your age and educational institution and whether you study in Finland or abroad. Your student loan is guaranteed by Kela, and it cannot grant a loan guarantee higher than the maximum amount.
