Study in Norway
WHY STUDY IN NORWAY
Despite being a small country Norwegian universities and university colleges deliver quality education which also international exchange and degree seeking students benefit from. Studying in Norway will improve your career possibilities, both at home and abroad. However, chances are high you might be surprised by the informal atmosphere on campus. Teachers are easily approachable, tuition often takes place in small groups and as a student you are encouraged to develop a critical mind. We believe this is the best way to prepare you for the future
As a knowledge nation, Norway has a great need for people with high level professional skills, and it is an overall goal for the government to achieve quality education for Norwegian and international students.Our educational system is based on the principle that everyone should be able to get an education regardless of their social background.
Norway currently has 9 universities, 8 university colleges and 5 scientific colleges owned by the state. Norway also has a large number of private higher education institutions receiving public funding.
Structure
The Norwegian system of higher education comprises all the institutions and/or programmes that are accredited. With the exception of some private university colleges, all higher education institutions are state-run. Since 2003 Norway has been following the objectives of the Bologna process in the European higher education. Central has been implementation of a 3 + 2 + 3 degree system with a Bachelor’s, Masters and PhD. structure following the European standards. With the introduction of the new degree system it has become easier for international students who complete all, or part of their education in Norway, to obtain recognition for their qualifications in other countries.
Exceptions are the old university college two-year degree (college candidate), five-year consecutive master’s degrees, six-year professional programmes, master’s degrees of one to one and a half year’s duration, four-year bachelor’s degrees in performing music and performing arts and four-year programmes in teacher education.
In addition to their teaching activities, all the higher learning institutions, and particularly the universities, are responsible for conducting basic research as well as researcher training, primarily by means of graduate-level studies and doctoral degree programmes. The main differences between the types of higher education institutions are related to their self-accreditation rights. Universities can offer study programmes without an external accreditation, while university colleges must apply for external accreditation for their study programmes.
Although our institutions are few and relatively small compared to universities in many other countries in the world, they keep high standard and deliver quality education. In some fields, Norwegian institutions or academic communities are even considered to be in the absolute world class.
Receiving international students, either as a part of an exchange agreement or students seeking a full degree, is considered both an asset for the institution itself, and a tool for increasing the quality of the Norwegian institutions and education. A wide variety of courses and study programmes are taught in English.
The academic year
The academic year normally runs from mid-August to mid-June.
Completing a university degree is considered to be an expensive endeavour and tuition fees are usually making up the bulk part of the cost. This is not the case in Norway where public funding secures free education for both Norwegian and international students.
The majority of Norwegian universities and state university colleges are publicly funded and the Norwegian government considers access to higher education for all to be an important part of the Norwegian society. Thus, as a rule, Norwegian public institutions do not charge tuition fees. This also applies to international students, no matter which country you come from. Private institutions charge tuition fees for their degree programs, but the fees are usually significantly lower than those of comparable studies in most other countries. Also, international students are treated equally to the Norwegian students, and are not charged with higher fees.
High cost Country
However, you should take into consideration that Norway is a high-cost country and living expenses are high. International applicants from outside of Europe must expect to document a high level of subsistence to be granted a student residence permit. If certain prerequisites are met you could also be eligible for financial support that can pay for some of your living expenses. Through various fellowship programmes, scholarship schemes or student loans, international students can receive funding for a full degree or a limited number of semesters. You should be aware that these funding opportunities are few and will in most cases not cover the total costs of you stay in Norway. In most cases funding from your home country or the use of private funds will be necessary.
However, many international students in Norway hold part-time work, but you should not rely on that option as the the scope is limited
Applications and admissions to higher education in Norway is handled by each institution, and the different institutions may have different requirements and deadlines.
Make sure you obtain all necessary information about requirements, documentation and deadlines for the different study programmes and institutions. Below you will find the minimum requirements for admission to higher education in Norway.
Degree seeking students: Academic requirements
Bachelor´s/ undergraduate studies
Completion of secondary education at advanced level, equivalent to passing the exam at the end of Norwegian secondary school, is the general basic requirement for entry to Norwegian universities and university colleges set by the Norwegian Agency for Quality Assurance in Education (NOKUT). For students from some countries at least one year of completed studies at the university level is required in addition.
See an overview of academic and language requirements for different countries here.
Some study programmes have special admission requirements, usually related to specialist subjects or fields of study from secondary school. Please check with the institution for information about these special qualifications.
Applicants for Masters programmes have normally obtained an undergraduate/Bachelor’s degree or equivalent of at least 3 years’ duration. The degree must include courses equal to at least 1 1/2 years of full-time studies in a subject relevant to that of the programme applied for.
Please beware that for some countries the first (and sometimes the second) year of study at a foreign higher education institution will not be recognised as higher education in Norway (see above).
Degree seeking students: Language requirements
For courses where the language of instruction is English all applicants should expect to document their language skills according to the requirements set by the institutions. Beware that the requirements may vary from institution to institution, and sometimes from study programme to study programme, and that different English tests and scores may be required by different institutions.
For courses where the language of instruction is Norwegian, proficiency in the Norwegian language is required and should be documented.
Learn Norwegian outside Norway
Even though your study programme is taught in English a certain knowledge of the Norwegian language will help you both academically, but also socially.
More than 140 institutions around the world are offering Norwegian courses to their students. There are currently between 5,000 and 6,000 young academics worldwide who are studying the Norwegian language or Norwegian courses at institutions of higher education in their home country. Maybe your current institution is on the list? This could be your first stepping stone towards further studies in Norway.
Exchange students
International cooperation is important to Norwegian institutions and they have a large number of exchange agreements with universities all over the world. This allows international students at all study levels (bachelor, master and PhD) to come to Norway on an 3 months, 6 months or a year´s exchange, and likewise Norwegians to go abroad.
Applications for exchange studies in Norway will always be handled by your home institution, and you will have to ask the office in charge of exchange/international relations at your university for more information about requirements, deadlines and what options might be available for an exchange to Norway. Please note that the Norwegian institution is not involved in the admission process at all.
All exchange courses for international students in Norway will be taught in English. Some institutions also offer Norwegian language courses for their international exchange students.
Exchange studies is an excellent way to get the best of Norwegian education and experience Norway – it´s really a once in a lifetime experience!
When transferring degrees and credits from a foreign institution the recognition process is normally performed by the Norwegian institution as a part of the application processing.
Recognition of foreign higher education qualifications in Norway
Higher education institutions decide applications for specific recognition, i.e. whether a foreign qualification is academically equivalent to a degree, part of a degree or other qualification awarded by the institution concerned. For students from some countries there are set additional requirements regarding what level of education and proficiency in English that need to be met to qualify for entry into Norwegian higher education. Se the overview of countries and academic and language requirements administered by The Norwegian Agency for Quality Assurance in Education (NOKUT) here.Credits
Courses are measured in points according to the ECTS standard (European Credit Transfer System). The full-time workload for one academic year is 60 ECTS credits.Grading scale
Grades for undergraduate and postgraduate examinations are awarded according to a graded scale from A (highest) to F (lowest), with E as the minimum pass grade. A pass/fail mark is given for some examinations.Diploma Supplement (DS)
Upon finished education all students a re provided with a Diploma Supplement free of charge. The Diploma Supplement (DS) is an international document that gives a detailed description of the qualifications attained by a candidate. It does not replace the diploma, but supplements it.Most students who plan to stay in Norway for more than three months will need a student residence permit. Visas are only issued for up to 90 days and will not cover stays beyond this period.
We urge you to carefully read the regulations that applies to you in order to avoid problems and delays during the application process.
In short, this is the requirements for international students who have been admitted to higher education in Norway:
- For applicants from students from the Nordic countries:
If you come from one of the Nordic countries you will not have to apply for a residence permit, but you should report your move to the National Registry.
- For applicants from countries in the EU/EEA/EFTA:
If you come from countries within the EU/EEA/EFTA area you have to register with the local police within three months.
- For applicants from countries outside the EU/EEA/EFTA:
If you come from outside the EU/EEA/EFTA area you have to apply for a student residence permit. See the requirements for your country here.
There is a processing fee for each application. This fee may vary depending on in which country the application is processed.
Please beware that you will be asked to document that you have funds enough to cover subsistence at NOK 116 369 for the academic year 2018-2019. If you have been admitted to an institution that charges tuition fees you will also have to document that you are able to cover this extra cost. As a general rule, the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration requires the money to be deposited in a Norwegian bank account.
Please note that the documentation requirements will vary from country to country and are subject to change. For more information contact the Norwegian Foreign Service mission closest to you. If you are in Norway, contact the local police. Remember that your institution will be able to advise you on this process.
The regulations above are also valid for exchange students from countries outside the EU/EEA/EFTA. If the stay is financed through scholarships, student loans or other public funding from the home country, valid documentation must accompany the application.
NB! A student residence permit to Norway is granted under the precondition that the student will return to his/her country of legal permanent residence upon completion of the studies.
Health services in Norway are of high standards. As a student in Norway you are ensured professional medical treatment no matter which part of the country you are living in.
In most cases the treatment is free of charge if certain prerequisites are met. These prerequisites vary depending on your current nationality and length of stay in Norway. Please study the regulations below carefully.

If you are not a member you are nevertheless entitled to health services under the National Insurance Act and you do not have to verify it with a European Health Insurance Card.
Students from the European Union, European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland
The general rule is that you do not become a member of the Norwegian National Insurance Scheme. If you are a member of social security in your home country and hold a European Health Insurance Card while studying in Norway, you are entitled emergency and necessary treatment under Norwegian legislation. Please be aware that this only apply to citizens of the countries within the EU/ EEA and Switzerland, and not citizens from other European countries living within this area.
If you are not entitled to a European Health Insurance Card from your home country, you must have other insurance to cover any medical expenses you might incur in Norway.
Students from countries outside European Union, the European Economic Area (EEA)
Your right to health services in Norway depends of your status as resident of Norway.

For all others you should have other insurance to cover any medical expenses you might incur in Norway.
All students
Some institutions provide on campus health services. The semester card which you receive by semester registration may entitle you free medical treatment at the institution’s student health services. This treatment usually does not apply to medicines or to medical tests taken off campus. The cost of medicines is only covered if you are hospitalised, or suffer from a serious disease, and are member of the Norwegian National Insurance Scheme, or have a European Health Insurance Card or another form of social security which covers these costs.
