Acknowledgements awarded at the AYY14 Annual Ball
Badges of merit and honor are awarded yearly as acknowledgements for active contributions in support of AYY and its objectives. There are three kinds of badges of merit and honor: the community badge, the badge of merit and the badge of honor. In addition, AYY has a special acknowledgement; the hero badge. In addition, a miniature flag and AYY's sash may also be awarded.
In addition to badges, AYY also awards other forms of acknowledgement to members of the Aalto community and for actions that have impacted the community.
You can read further information on the acknowledgements on this page.

Good news for residents in shared apartments: Here’s how you can receive your own housing allowance while living in a friends’ apartment!
A joint liability rental agreement may affect the housing allowance, as Kela typically grants only one housing allowance for a shared household, which is influenced by the income of both residents. However, residents in friends’ apartments may receive separate housing allowances if Kela reviews them as separate households. This requires tenants with a joint liability rental agreement to draft a mutual possession agreement for the apartment and submit it as an appendix with their housing allowance application to Kela. Tenants draft the possession agreement by themselves.
