danielinyang:As far as I know, you cannot apply for a study visa to go for a Norwegian language preparatory program. Only people currently resident in Norway and EU citizens can do so. |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by danielinyang(m): 3:02pm On Aug 13, 2020 |
olujastro:So is it possible to the language preparatory course online? |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by olujastro: 3:12pm On Aug 13, 2020 |
danielinyang:Everything is done in the school and classroom. With Covid 19, you can ask the school what's currently obtainable and do your own research about the current visa requirements. |

minimum wage for skilled international student in norway is Nok 197.90 per hour which is #8,465 unskilled student would earn Nok 177.80 per hour which is #7,607 then after one year of experience the pay will increase for unskilled then if a skilled student who work 3hrs per day for for one month he is expected to make not less than #761, 850 The cost of living in norway for international student is around #518, 880 per month this money includes transportation, housing, food , study materials and activities so if a student earn #761‚850 and spends #518‚ 880 he is expected to save #242‚970 every month note: some student earn more than this why some earn lesser depends on the city you are in! |

I SENT AN EMAIL TO UNIVERSITY OF BERGEN CONCERNING concerning the one year norwegian language preparatory program but they told me they dont offer a preparatory program but university of volda does when i check university of volda website this is what i saw https://www.hivolda.no/en/nis/nis-how-apply this is what you need to apply Original diploma from secondary school and university translated version of this diploma (translated into english or norwegian) Documentation of english language skills (iets or toelf) but am not sure nigerians have to Copy of passport (the page with personal info) motivation letter Applicants from outside Eu/Eea- area must be qualified for further studies to be considered for admission to Nis. The study program in which you intend to continue on after completing Nis must be a program from volda university college. (but they dont have the course i want to take) in your motivational letter put which bachelor/ master degree you intend to apply to after completing Nis application portal opens first december and closes 1march (i guess we have to wait till next year) tution fees : free but there are other charges school email: admissions.hivolda.no application is done online application link: https://fsweb.no/soknadsweb/login.jsf?inst=hvo# note: The Nowegian immigration policy states that acceptance to a norwegian language course in itself is not enough to apply for a student visa. Citizens from outside the Eu/Eea must have specific plan for futher studies at volda university before been granted visa permit . hope this helps |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by danielinyang(m): 5:17am On Aug 14, 2020 |
BEFORE APPLYING PLEASE CHECK THE UNIVERSITY TO SEE IF THE COURSE THE OFFER IS THE COURSE YOU WANT TO TAKE AFTER COMPLETING THE ONE YEAR PROGRAM BEST REGARDS! |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by danielinyang(m): 5:37am On Aug 14, 2020 |
IN CASE THE UNIVERSITY OF VOLDA DONT TEACH THE COURSE YOU WANT JUST BE PATIENT CAUSE AM DOING MORE RESEARCH TO SEE IF OTHER UNIVERSITIES DO 1 Like |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by danielinyang(m): 5:45am On Aug 14, 2020 |
If university of volda dont have the course you want to study after the preparatory program then you can check out this other universities * University of stavanger https://uis.no * University of south-Eastern Norway https://usn.no this universities offers one year norwegian language course then after that you will study your chioce of course in the university but note if the university dont have your chioce of course then dont apply cause the immigration wont give you visa |

Dumebi213:Nice to know that my contributions have been and are still helping people on the thread. Yeah, I still generally check stuff on Nairaland and it doesn't cost me anything to pop in here occasionally if there are new issues I can help answer. For your question, I mind just a little bit but no problem. Basically, I worked in Norway for a while before moving to Canada where I live now. |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Arinze01(m): 9:27am On Aug 14, 2020 |
olujastro: Yeah,we appreciate your input way back 2013 or 2014 perhaps which has been(and still) stupendously instrumental to all and sundry. You said you worked in Norway briefly and then migrated to Canada. I know these questions are kinda subjective but give us tips: 1) why did u have to leave Norway for Canada,was it 'cause of the lingua franca spoken at work places? Pls give a reason(s) 2)how was Norway generally? Your experiences with Norwegians and in Norway at large. Was the experience worth it? Pls could you shed more light cos we all are naive 3)what advise will u give to intending students like us from a Nigerian perspective. The Dos and Don'ts. What we should take note of and what to expect? Thanks in anticipation! |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by olujastro: 5:15pm On Aug 14, 2020 |
Arinze01:My reasons for leaving are personal. All I can say is that Canada is a much better place for me. Norway is a very beautiful country, not as cold as Canada during the winter, but a very boring place to live in because Norwegians are naturally boring people. Language barrier is a problem as well. No rules per se, just do what is right irrespective of who's watching so we don't give the country a bad name. When you get to Norway, you'll meet Nigerians and get to adapt quickly. Talk with Nigerians a lot because that'll be your easiest route to finding student jobs and getting to know your options during and after school. 2 Likes |

danielinyang: Thanks bro. All these schools are the tuition free? And will they take an hnd holder? 1 Like |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by CuteTj(m): 10:37am On Aug 15, 2020 |
Adex2442:All public schools (state colleges and universities) are tuition free though you pay a small token for department stuffs while private universities charge tuition. You cannot use hnd to appy for Masters. Its only acceptable if you want to apply for a bachelor programme. |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Adex2442: 11:01am On Aug 15, 2020 |
CuteTj: If I Wan to apply to bachelor prog with hnd, what level will I start from?? Do they accept pgd for masters? |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by CuteTj(m): 8:04pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Adex2442: If you want to apply for Bsc with HND, I believe you will start from Year 1. I dont think it's like Nigeria whereby you can gain admission to Bsc thru Direct Entry with your HND. Secondly, I also believe they do not accept PGD for masters. I have read through their education system from A -Z and there is no where I saw Bsc top-up programme (PGD) being mentioned. All I have said above is mere speculation. Mail the admission officers of the programmes you are interested in so they can clear all your doubt. |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by trinityconcept(m): 8:05pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Pls what advice do you have for someone with a relatively low cgpa 3.08 Will going for a pgd here enhance my chances of getting masters? |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by trinityconcept(m): 8:08pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Alright thanks And pls for those of u that got admission maybe u can share your cgpa it will go a long way |

Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Dumebi213: 2:03am On Aug 16, 2020 |
Adex2442: To be honest i think you should read this whole thread from page 1, you'd find answers there Most of us active on here are also prospectives |
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Dumebi213: 2:05am On Aug 16, 2020 |
trinityconcept: No I don't think so as most universities clearly states that your bachelor's degree diploma is what is used for admission But you can contact the admission office of whatever school you want to apply for |
