Thanks bro sis... You are actually right.

Good evening,
I want to enquire about living in Norway ��.
I plan entering into the country in a few months time with a tourist visa of 3 months.
Within that 3 months, I plan to get a job and a work permit to convert my visa.
I want to ask if jobs are easy to get over there and if yes, is it also easy to get a work permit before the expiration of one's visa
Please reply soon as the information you provide will be of utmost help.

I hope you’re saying this from experience living in norway and not from what you read? Cos I’m sure we that are in Norway would not totally agree with you

I'm your shoes right now, I just wish someone could answer this question because whatever answer they give will determine my fate.
Incase you are in Norway already, kindly pls send me a mail on; bosunaremu@gmail.com I have questions to ask.

adeosuntolu2007:
please, am getting visiting visa, which i intend to work with in Norway, and if possible settle down there. please what are my chances of doing so? i have HND in accountancy. thanks

Please send me a mail on bosunaremu@gmail.com because we are in the same situation and since you wrote this 3 months ago, it's possible that you are there already, so I'd like us to rub minds together and talk.
I'll be waiting for your mail... Thanks

I don’t know much about this. But from the little I know it would be almost impossible

Friends, I got admitted for master program in linkoping university in Sweden , and also engineering design in university of Tromso, Narvik in norway.

Sweden is 2.5 million per semester while norway is free tuition.

Any advice will be appreciated.

You probably dont need any advice, your financial capacity should do the needful. Norway is tuition free but need 5m per annum.

Which advice do you need again?

Sweden and Norway are like twins. It’s pretty much the same lifestyle in both countries. Social life is just a little bit better in Sweden because of bigger population. Cost of living is higher in Norway.

As for Educational standard I think norway is slightly better.

The 5m you need per annum in norway is your money. It’s you that would spend it and you probably need about the same amount for upkeep per annum in Sweden too(maybe a little lower)

So why take a sweden where you’ll pay a whole 2.5million per semester over a norway with no tuition?!!!

It’s a no brainer

i dont think there is any country you are allowed to work with visit visa unless Africa , or maybe you want to get the job first, go exit come back like the dubai way. in terms of job, i heard there are more jobs in sweden than Norway. search the threads and make inquiries well.
all the best.

You better don't mind the poster, scandanavia is different,and you can't even get work without a social security number which is based on a permit and not a visiting visa.

Pls has any other person gotten an email from University of stavanger ?

What sort of email are you expecting? Stavanger has given out admissions already. I am in the international group where their are various students for the 2019 entry year from different countries currently interacting. But if someone doesn't pay the 5m within their deadlines or turns down their offers I think it will be reallocated so stay positive.

Which group is that please? Mind linking me up?

Folks, Please people that have paid the living expenses to Norway. How did you go about it and which bank is the best to use.

I was told that some banks will not process the payment because it is not tuition fees.

Thanks

What is the name of the Facebook group ?

Please, who is going to university of tromso, narvik campus in Norway in autumn

Let us relate

Inxyz:




I don't know what you guys are talking about.
Home? What is home, can you mention any country in the world you can call home? Even Nigeria my country is just by birth because home is where you find comfort. Can you live in Borno state or comfortably stay in the Northern part if your are a southerner, is it not Nigeria? and you talk of racism. Can you contest as a governor in Edo state when you are from Lagos state. The truth is saying Chinko alone is racism. It took the white patience, sacrifice fairness, commitment, patriotism to take their country to where it is now and you must respect that. If they allow you to behave or have full right you may destroy it, so you don't have to blame them for that. I could not get some Job in Nigeria even after passing medicals because I am not from a particular area, this is my experience and you still talk of racism.

Yes we have oil in Nigeria, do you have the skills? Or educational expertise to gain employment?

What is the status of your government, are they doing anything that will foster development?

Remember traveling outside your comfort zone alone is not only just a life time experience but also broaden your horizon.

If you behave well you live well everywhere you go. No body will be happy you want to share what belongs to them, so get that and be guided.

You made sense here bro

Good morning house.

I'm a newbie here. Please, I need someone that can help me to answer this question:


Can I apply for masters in Norway with my degree and two NECO certificates?

Thank you

I do not know about using two neco results but you can try it and you will be asked to send a scratch card to verify the neco results when you are sending your transcripts.

No harm in trying

Just popping in to say I'm glad to see this thread still going. I still get a lot of PMs regarding studies in Norway, but the truth is that there are too many for me to actually reply to (I actually tried making a new thread in the past with all info on the front page, but it was locked. It's really a hassle having to dig through all the pages in this thread). At the moment I attend UiB, so if anyone's heading that way (or any other matter), reply to this post and I'll be happy to help you all out.

I'll also be more active on NL from now on. Good luck to every one.

Hello fam
I really appreciate what y'all are doing here.
It's pretty amazing and there's a lot of information on here



Please, I need some advise

I'm a photographer... interested in tourism and documentary
I have an interest in taking an MSc in Tourism
I have a Choice between University of Stavanger (MSc International Hospitality and Management) and UIT Arctic University of Norway....in Trømso (MSc Tourism studies)
UIT ranks higher than Uis
Both curriculums are good

As much as they're both tuition free
I'll still have to deal with my living expenses


Like... transportation, accommodation, feeding, electricity bills, etc.



From my findings, accommodation is easier to get in Stavanger
Transportation...there are more options (bus, train, ferry, air)
Things are cheaper there
Uis is ranked 1151 in the world


But Trømso
UIT is ranked 505 or so
Fewer transportation options
Not sure about accommodation
More tourist sites to behold

So... Trømso has a better ranked university and more fun things to do with fewer transportation routes to get to neighbouring countries when compared to Stavanger


While Stavanger has Uis with a lesser ranking but cheaper cost of living (accommodation, transportation, food)

So please, is there anyone that has some experience living in trømso and/or Stavanger that can advise me on the way to go?

How do I deal with this please?


Thanks

Well as for ranking, yes their schools aren't so high in the world university rankings. Norway is not a strong manufacturing or research country compared to other countries in Europe and Asia. They are majorly into oil and gas (lng) production. Then I think Fisheries. Going there for anything other than an oil and gas related course I am not so sure. Yes its one of the most beautiful countries in the world, def in top 10, but don't know what their tourist number count is, I'm sure you can google it. Just think of your plans after school and in my opinion since you want to be in tourism, take the language seriously when you get there.

Sometimes I cannot help but continue to picture my future country (Norway's) future. They are one of the biggest oil and lng exporters in Europe and they are the highest buyers of electric cars as well, infact they want to be purely electric. Yes they have a large Sovereign wealth fund (Raw cash in savings used to invest in other businesses in other parts of the world like tech, real estate etc to generate revenue for the country) and all that and then they aren't so big in manufacturing anything (based on what i see online). Well they intend to produce oil for the next 50+ years till most cars in the world become electric and oil and gas is irrelevant, but although lng will still be relevant for maybe the next 100 years. So after that whats next for norway?. Whats the next big thing for them or what are they currently setting their eyes on? Please those in the country what are you seeing on ground, enlighten some of us. Let's talk of real life outside admission and masters.

For the first time, electric cars in 2019 have outsold petrol cars in Norway due to govt incentives for electric car owners.

Shipping & ship building and the fishing industries are also very big industries in Norway. Norway makes millions of dollars yearly exporting dried stockfish alone to Nigeria and other African countries. A lot of procesed foods we eat are also locally produced in Norway.

Regarding post oil era, the big local E & Ps such as Statoil are rebranding as energy companies, not just oil companies. Statoil is now Equinor with so much new investments in Wind Energy.

BTW, how did your US visa interview end up?

Norway controls 1.4 percent of the world stocks , they invested the 1trillion dollars sovereign wealth fund in over 9000 companies which includes apple, microsoft, Samsung and many other big companies.

They even export hydro power to Netherlands, Germany and other scandinavian countries.
