JASTO ry

JASTO (Jyväskylän Ammattikorkeakoulu sosiaali- ja terveysalan opiskelijat ry) is a study field organization of the Jyväskylän University of Applied Sciences students in the field of social and health care.

JASTO is a study field organization for students of social and health care, while JAMKO is the student union of the Jyväskylä University of Applied Sciences. JASTO is open to students of social and health care, JAMKO is open to all students of Jyväskylä University of Applied Sciences.

You’re not. You need to join JASTO separately. You can be a member of JASTO, a member of JAMKO, a member of both, or not a member of either.

Not unless you have joined JAMKO. Membership of JASTO alone is not sufficient proof of student status.

A full-time student of Jyväskylä University of Applied Sciences in the field of social and health care can become a member of JASTO.

You can become a JASTO member by purchasing a JASTO membership on the Kide.App.

The JASTO board is the JASTO body elected annually at the autumn meeting. The Board manages the activities of the association, is responsible for the use of the association’s funds, maintains the membership register, and organizes events and activities for JASTO members. The current list of the JASTO Board of Directors can be found on the website

You can join the board as a full member or a deputy member. The JASTO Board sometimes seeks deputy members, and as a deputy member, you have a good opportunity to get to know JASTO without the same obligations as a full member. A new board is elected each year at the association’s autumn meeting at the end of the year. So come along to the meeting and express your interest in joining the board.

You can order a name tag through JASTO during the orientation week on the kide.app.

Name tags are ordered twice a year, in August-September and January. If you didn’t have time to order your name pins during orientation week, you can order them during the next orientation week. You can also have a pin made by yourself, for example by a shoemaker.

We order the name tags from another party, so we have no control over the engraving speed of the name tags. We also try to arrange the pick-up times for overalls and name tags so that both can be picked up at the same time. Since overalls usually take longer than nametags, you may have to wait a while for nametags.

You can pick up your nametag at the time of overalls pick-up, at JASTO stands, or during office hours. If you cannot pick up your nametag at the times indicated, please contact JASTO and we can arrange a separate pick-up time.

You can order overalls during orientation week via the kide.app.

It is possible to try on overalls during the orientation week at the times indicated.

Overalls are ordered twice a year, in autumn and in January. If you missed the opportunity to order overalls during your orientation week, you can order them during the next orientation week (August-September or January).

Orders for overalls go through JAMKO, which organizes the orders of all JAMK’s study field organizations into one large order. We do not order overalls directly from the manufacturer but participate in a group order with other study field organizations. So your overalls come as part of a large order, which takes time to produce.

Overalls distribution days are organized after the overalls arrive, when you can pick up your overalls on campus. Pick-up dates will be announced on social media. You can also pick up your overalls on office days.

If the size of the overalls is the same as the size you indicated on the form, we will not accept the return of the overalls.

If the field of study matches the field of study you indicated on the order form, we will not refund your money, as we have ordered the overalls according to the orders placed through kide.app.

Overalls are non-returnable. However, you can try to sell them to another student.

Overalls are ordered on a made-to-measure basis, i.e. a certain number of sizes are ordered for certain sectors (nurses, midwives, physiotherapists, etc.). Due to lack of space, JASTO is unable to maintain a stock of overalls, and only the amount of overalls ordered is ordered each time.

Unfortunately, we do not accept ticket returns or give refunds. However, you can sell your ticket to someone else (Jodel, classmate…) Please note that, for example, at a sits, food is ordered according to the person who originally bought the ticket.

Unfortunately, we do not have extra tickets for sold-out events. You can try to buy ticket for example Jodel.

The events are organized by the JASTO Board. If you have any event requests, you can send them to us by email: tapahtumat@jasto.net or on the JASTO social media pages.
