    Prioritization order for admission is based on the prioritization criteria established by Aalto ARTS:

    https//www.aalto.fi/en/services/registering-to-courses-and-the-order-of-priority-at-aalto-arts

    After the registration has closed, SISU conducts a raffle to allocate all the seats while considering the possible prioritisation order stated above. If there are more registrants than available seats, ten (10) students from the remaining applicants are drawn and placed on a waiting list in numerical order. On the first day of the course, these students may check for available seats in case of no-shows. Any available seats are then filled in numerical order.

    All applicants will receive an email containing details about the registration status, once the registration period has closed.

    Minimum amount of participants is 8 students, maximum 12.
