The survey charted the first impressions that new university and polytechnic students had about beginning their studies. The survey examined the respondents' views on issues relating to starting their studies, such as moving from their childhood home, learning to live on their own, tutoring, and student events. Furthermore, the respondents' views on their own ability to cope in this new life situation were investigated. All students who began their studies in higher education institutions in Finland in the fall of 2014 were eligible for the survey.
