No you can't. Your best hope is a Bsc but most are not taught in English medium and the Norwegian Embassy does not grant visas to Nigerians coming for Bsc in Norway.
why exactly ?

Hi Aragon1 can u brief me on the process and procedure of applying for a school in Norway? My younger bro really needs this info; Would appreciate ur response... If u can share a numb I can reach u on, I won’t hesitate to call, thanks
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Aragon1: 11:35am On May 26, 2020
Applications are done online through soknadsweb. You will have to check the individual universities website to know the requirements. You will also have to send across your Transcript directly from your university here in Nigeria and for a school like USN, you will need ETS to send across your English language score as it's compulsory for all applicants from Nigeria. It's actually very straightforward. Hope this helps.

Honestly, I don't know. I'm going for an academic career so haven't looked much into the job market elsewhere. The oil and gas sector is so shaky right now that it's hard to say what the situation will be like once you complete your M.A. degree. Knowing Norwegian will always be a huge advantage in Norway - there's no hiding that fact.

Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Arinze01(m): 9:00am On Jul 01, 2020
Who's applying to any Norwegian University this fall of 2020?

I have read all from the beginning to the end of this thread and all I can say is 3 Gbosas to the pioneers and all that offered words of advise. I've made all independent research about Norway and my interest to study over there increased exponentially.

If you've developed interest to study in Norway or nursing the thought, let's discuss about it and keep the thread full of life.

Also,our Nigerian brothers over there, how is the country treating y'all,during studies and post studies? How easy did u get job after learning nyorsk or bokmal ? And lastly, which is recommended, nynorsk or bokmal albeit they're of equal importance but from what I read so far, people recommended bokmal more, pls shed more light on this

Moreover,I graduated from Unilag late last year
With a Cgpa of 4.52. I'm a prospective international student in Norway with interest in Economics or finance.

Look forward to hearing/jotting your experiences.

Good morning everyone!!!

Someone should pls shed more light on the grey areas I listed in my previous post.

What grading system do they use in Norway? What score would give me an A(i.e 1) in Norway. For example, Nigerian Universities,one must have 70% in a course to have an A in that course,what score should one have in Norway to have an A in that course. My brothers and sisters in Norway, could you pls answer my questions..

I have narrowed my interest to 4 Norwegian Univs namely; UiS,UiA,Nord University, NMBU. All economics or finance courses.

Lastly, how is the financial Industry like ? The rate at which they employ an African with an intermediate bokmal language knowledge.

Pls ,help a naive brother!

I once talked about the grading system in Norway some time ago on this thread.
For the records, A is 90-100; B is 80-89; C is 60-79; D is 50-59; E is 40-49; and below 40 is F.

For language, bokmal or nynorsk are about the same Norwegian language but different dialects. Bokmal is more commonly taught to everyone especially learners.

For post study jobs, it seems most people want a clairvoyant to tell them that they will or not be able to find jobs after masters in Norway. No one has such powers as everyone's fate is different, just as times and economic situations are also different.
For the records, the rate at which they employ foreigners is less than that of Norwegians and EU citizens.
If you find a job after studying, good luck; else, move to another country. Simple!

I think they've started attending to study-visa like issues. The embassy has started operations.

Which schools are you contemplating on or Prolly want to apply to?

I'm applying to 4 schools this October/December namely; University of Stavanger (UiS), University of Adger(UiA),Nord University and NMBU.

I've been in talks with UiS via mail like 5 times though they said everything about admission would be made public this October obviously due to covid-19.

They also said 15 Nigerians accepted to enroll to UiS this about-to-commence academic session.

Same school bro....pls I sent u a mail
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Arinze01(m): 3:37pm On Jul 10, 2020
I have read this thread from the first page to the last page and also independently researched on most schools in Norway via websites, mails,Youtube videos and others. I can also offer my #1.
Majority of all schools requires Nigerians to send the under listed docs;
1) Transcript of records ( an original uploaded one and also the one send by your previous school to the intended school). Watermarked student copy won't be accepted,UiS told me that.

2)Diploma/Certificate ( all meaning the same)

3)CV

4)Waec/Neco Results. Or Waec scratch card(Nord Univ requested this) all as proof of English Proficiency and some need it to show as an evidence for o'levels

5) International Passport showing all ur details and photo.

6)An Enclosure form ( though its on their website,fill,sign,scan and upload it to them.

7)Documents of financing (2019/2020 session were asked to provided 121,220 Noks,though it might increase for 2021/2022(it basically covers ur wellbeing for a yr including accommodation but still hold more)

The aforementioned ones are the primary ones, the secondary ones demanded by some are;

coolGRe/GMAT ( NHH and Bi Norwegian demanded it)

9) motivational letter or statement of purpose ( some art courses requested for it.

10) ielts/TOEFL ( some private univ demanded it)


10) Online dance video( some dance programs asked for it).

That's all. The Herculean task is raising the 121,220 Noks . God will see us through, Amen!!
