UniBergen requested for it that's statement of account and sponsorship letter, but I wasn't able to provide it. I have a good CGPA, I just pray they don't reject me because of inability to provide those documents.

Thanks, my mind tells me same thing. Because there are situations whereby people still provide these documents during application and when they get admitted, they are unable to fund their account when asked to.

Bank statements is not needed by the school however it might be used for selection purposes when for stance the criteria for elimination is the same. Eg 2 candidates from the same continent with similar Cgpa, if the other submitted a bnk statement and other did not, that could come in to play. Best of luck

Please friends, is there university in Oslo, Norway, or any other part of Norway that offer Master degree in Library and information science, or master degree in International relation under political science? am interested in carrying on my master degree study in Norway, in either the field of Library and information science or in the field of political science, since I graduated with double honour awarded degree in the both field, with CGPA of 3.36.

Also, must one pay 5 million before getting their visa?

Got to www.studyinnorway.no and search for yourself.

It’s not like you’re paying 5M, you will send it you your school, the school issues you a receipt which you’ll use to apply for visa , when you get to norway they would give you your 5m back

There are several factors to consider:

Visa: Your chance of getting a US study visa should be around 50% while you stand a 90% chance of getting a Norwegian study visa once you submit the required documents. No interview required. Simply submit and go home.
So if you don't want this year to elude your study aspirations, go with Norway.

Funding: If funding isn't an issue for you at all, then the US is your better option for obvious reasons.

Stay back: Norway allows you a year on Job seekers visa to find a job, however you have to show them N10m of your money or an equivalent work contract to get the visa.

Jobs: It's not as before oil prices crashed but jobs are gradually picking up in Norway due to oil prices recovery. Experienced positions are booming again while graduate jobs are gradually showing up. Norwegians and EU citizens are apparent favorites for entry level jobs at the moment.
However, several other non EUs including Nigerians have been lucky to get jobs after graduating last year.

My advice: Try and gather all required documents for Norway. Then if it's possible, try your luck with the US visa first. If you don't succeed at the interview, immediately apply for the Norwegian study permit towards the end of May. Norwegian Immigration commences processing study visas in June.

Lastly, ask your questions here so that other Nigerians can benefit while reading through.

You have answered everything. Stavanger is the capital of oil in europe. Honestly its a privilege getting admitted out of 10 slots in uis. I know getting a job will be very high if I do things right. Are you currently in uis as well?

You answered everything I had concerns in. Honestly its a privilege getting accepted to uis, out of the possible 10 slots on offer. I am thinking about it. They need 116k nok payment for visa. considering my admission for the same petroleum geocience in texas is 30k usd a year then 20k for upkeep which is 50k and 20m in naira per year and for 2 years 40m. Best case scenario 30 to 35m cos I dont have funding/scholarship

If I study and do things right I hope to secure a job within that 1 year. As I am reading online Stavanger is the oil and gas exploration capital of europe and I hope things fall into place.

Are you currently in UIS?

Go to studyinnorway.no for schools and programs that suit your desires.

Most undergraduate programs are taught in Norwegian. So your chances are not good.

Chase that US study visa hard. Norway should be your last option.
