Student discounts 

Higher education students are entitled to Kela’s meal subsidy, i.e. a discount on the price of a meal in restaurants that are covered by Kela’s meal allowance. From the restaurants connected to Humak’s campuses, you will receive a meal-subsidized lunch when you present a valid student card upon payment. The easiest way is to display the Tuudo student ID.

Degree students can receive a discount on VR and Matkahuolto travel tickets. In addition, many local transportation companies (e.g. HSL) offer students a discount on travel tickets. You can prove your entitlement to student discounts either with Tuudo’s student ID or by downloading an electronically signed Certificate of Study from Peppi. Some of the services (e.g. the HSL application) also utilize the National Agency of Education’s Koski service for retrieving study information electronically.

You can ask for offers addressed to students from different service providers. For example, telephone operators, electricity companies, restaurants, and cultural and exercise services may offer lower rates to students. As a member of the student body organization HUMAKO, you can also receive benefits that are available to HUMAKO members.
