Hello everyone, and welcome to Global Scholarships, your go-to channel for all things related
0:07
to studying abroad. In this episode, we're taking a closer look at Norway and how you can study here for free
0:14
Norway is one of the countries that believe that education should be available to everyone
0:19
It's a popular destination for degree studies since international students can finish a
0:23
bachelors, masters or PhD program for free. However, as Norway is known for the high cost of living, other sources of funds are still
0:33
necessary for international students. So is there really a way for you to study in Norway for free? Absolutely
0:41
So make sure to watch this video as we have helpful tips and answers for you
0:47
Tip number 1. Prepare your application thoroughly. Your application represents your academic performance in your current and previous studies
0:56
Since it's the first thing that universities will look at, you will have to make sure
1:00
that your application highlights all your core strengths, achievements and potential. Your grades in crucial subjects, general point average and even test scores further represent
1:11
these characteristics. Specific documentary requirements are also needed to be prepared early
1:18
Passports, visas and other necessary travel documents may take time to complete
1:24
So aim to submit your requirements at the earliest time possible. Be sure to check out the admission pages for deadlines of universities you intend to apply to
1:33
Nordic universities typically have deadlines set on March 1st for the fall semester
1:39
Tip number 2. Apply for scholarships. While submitting your application earlier than the deadline can get you accepted at
1:46
a Norwegian university, it does not, however, guarantee that you can study for free
1:52
Nordic universities in Norway receive funds from the government and provide tuition-free
1:56
education to all regardless of country of origin. But you might have to pay for your education if you apply for a private institution in
2:04
the country. For this matter, applying for scholarships can help you tremendously
2:10
Some of the universities in Norway that offer scholarships for international students are
2:14
the University of Bergen, Nord University and Norwegian University of Life Sciences
2:20
These universities offer scholarships up to full tuition-free coverage so you have
2:25
other living costs to consider. Before we continue, be sure to check out the link in the description below to find more

information about international education. Tip number 3. Apply to free universities in Norway
2:48
Norway is home to quite a number of universities that offer free education
2:52
Some of the universities you should definitely check out are the University of Oslo, the
2:57
University of Agder and the University of Stavanger. If you haven't watched it, here's our previous episode about free universities in Norway
3:06
so you know which universities to consider. Since Norway promotes free education for all, tuition fees won't be your problem when you
3:14
study here because you can get it for free or discounted. However, you will need to prepare funds for your living expenses since living in Norway
3:23
can be costly. Always consider your food, accommodation, insurance and other things, all of which can
3:30
amount to at least 7,000 Norwegian Kroner to 9,000 Norwegian Kroner per month
3:35
That's why planning your budget and lifestyle would be a big help as you study here
3:39
And knowing your options, such as scholarships and tuition-free universities can be a tremendous help
3:45
We hope this video has helped you learn more about the amazing opportunity that Norway offers
