@ Arinze001

She was offered the course i chose for her as the first choice which is Service Leadership in International Business.

By God's grace, you will be granted admission.

Nice Nice.
I know someone (Nigerian) that got that same course, UiS too.

Amen Amen!
Thanks for the prayer and you too!

CuteTj:
My wife has been granted admission to Uis. Even though Uia and Uit has not gotten back to me with regards to my own application, we will just immediately do a family reunification (which includes myself and the kids) when she is applying for her own study permit. Therefore, I don't mind if the schools I applied to don't offer me admission.

Congrats boss!

What course was she given?

I'm also an expectant.

isetoluwase:
Good day all. I just got admission into UiS for masters in City and regional planning. I actually wanted to study construction management but that was the only course available that is related to my first degree (Architecture). Pls gurus in d house, what's the job prospect for international students after this degree

First thing first, congratulations!

The course is okay, it's cognate to architecture.

Hello everyone thanks for the info here I am admitted into NLA University college for masters program my questions is how is kristiansand and caan I get job there and also I want to go with my family how much for my husband and daughter need to show as proof of funds? Thanks and if there is any WhatsApp group please add me.

Big Congratulations Ma'am!

From my research, Kristiansand is a nice place located in Adger county, southern Norway.

For the funds, you need *2 of the required student amount (nok 123,519 *2). Your hubby can work unlimited and your daughter studies for free if you enrol her to a public school.


Cheers!

I contacted the Mastercard uni Edinburgh team yesterday about the interview invitation, they said they will get to the successfully applicant very soon.
My question is, will they award the scholarship to all applicants who are invited for interview?

They've started contacting successful applicants already.

PS; it's not mine o. I didn't get a mail yet.

Deexa01:


Am just saying what I heard. It's painful but I have decided to move on and try another application. God dey.

I think you're correct. An alumni posted it on Twitter

Lanesra:

Mdan753:
Hello guys, good morning, I wanted to know if it's possible to get a job offer in Norway as a Nigerian before getting there?

Nothing is impossible but as a realist, it's very difficult. Except, your talent/skill is highly missing and needed by the employer.

OluOla2019:


Thank you for your prompt response.
I graduated with a CGPA of 3.67 out of 5.0. I'm considering the Master programs in Global health and Environmental Toxicology at University of Bergen and NTNU respectively.

NTNU MSc application is closed for 2021 entry likewise majority of all Norwegian universities asides University of Stavanger that will close the application on the 10th of January, 2021.

Breathtaker:
Please this is my first question here...
Please the NOK that's is required must I be in possession of it?
I have a sponsor who will be able to provide statement...

Does Norway allow students to work while studying?

Both Huge Yes!!

A sponsor can come into play and you can work whilst studying!

Best of luck!

IamSoluble:

Please one more thing.
What is the difference between the two?

Oops!

I'll be giving a layman definition on this.

Embassy is for diplomatic activities while Consulate is an extension of the embassy in a city.

Thatmgbekebabe:


5 days but max should be 2 weeks. They’ll give a response don’t worry.

Good afternoon folks!

Trust our day is going peachy.

I have 2 unconditional offers, one in University of Edinburgh (master's in Finance, Technology and Policy) and the other, University of Westminster ( MSc in FinTech with Business Analytics).

Tuition fees comparison;

Edinburgh (£33k)
Westminster (£15k)

Pls is Westminster okay, university is Edinburgh is highly-ranked but Westminster is in London.

I'm thinking of sticking with Westminster due to its location. I'm kinda confused.

[quote author=IamSoluble post=96428876]Please when sending document to the below Norway address, will I leave the International Masters Programmes like that or type my course of study?

Akinsj:


OMG nobody can give me such money. I was thinking you will just show them Statement of acct with a sponsorship letter to back it up.

Oops!
Sorry about that.

aurorae1:
Is it advisable to write two motivation letters for the different courses in a university?
Or we just stick with one?

It depends on you.

They said you can combine both courses on a letter or you write it separately.

GoldPanther:


Hi Arinze, please any idea when application would probably close and if one is targeting next year September entry is this current application period the deadline? Thanks

It depends on the school. Most are closing Dec 1st, few DEC 15th, one Jan 10th.

Yes, this ongoing application is for September, 2021 entrants.

Akinsj:


Pls this 123519 NOK, i hope is not going to be paid into their acct in norway.

You've to pay it. The money is yours!

They will transfer all to you when you've opened a Norwegian bank account.

Ready to assist folks that has questions.


God make it seamless for us!

Napolito:



Hello bro, if I didn't meet up to the TOEFL score request of a school, do u think I have any chance of gaining admission there?

Oops!
It depends on what the school stated. Only few schools (UiO and USN) in Norway asked for TOEFL and ielts. If they did ask, and you didn't meet the TOEFL score, your guess Is as good as mine!

Instead of disturbing yourself, why can't you apply to universities that exempted Nigeria from documenting a TOEFL score. We have trunks of universities that exempted Nigeria (our WAEC result or WAEC scratch card or letter of English Proficiency was asked instead)


Best of luck!

Arinze001

Hi everyone, if I am applying for 2 courses from 2 different faculty in NTNU, am I supposed to send 2 transcripts from my school?

No, you don't have to!

A transcript is good for the 2 courses under the same university.
Applying to 2 programmes under a school is better. Reasons are;
1)it saves cost
2)it widens you options ( 2*n)
3) makes you competitive

Best of luck!

roland2rule:
Hi, if I am applying to 3 schools in Norway (for example, NTNU, Uis, UiA) and they request that my Uni send my transcript hardcopy to them directly, does it means that I will order transcript 3 times from my UNI to cater for the 3 schools? (Haaaaaa )...

I checked price for requesting a transcript from my school to Norway on etx.ng and it's #24300 as of today.... (Ha... gbese)

Help me plz if there is any alternative to this...

Sadly, YES!

You have to notify your school to send it to the host university.

There's an alternative though but I won't tell you to try it to your intended/top priority schools.

Some folks years back uploaded only their original transcript and they didn't send by post and still got admitted. They used this experiment on schools they had <100% interest on.

If you really love those schools you mentioned, bro, you just have to send those transcripts by post.

I know some guys paying close to #40k*n on transcript. Yours is fairly better.

Do the right thing RIGHT!

Luzznation:
Please is there any one going or attends Nord University

I'm applying and some other folks.

Hope no issues?

roland2rule:
Can any one explain the meaning of ECTS (Norway) to me and how to evaluate it with respect to my courses...

For example, if you are asked to have a major in computer science with min 80 ECTS, what does this implies?

I have checked google and it's get confusing to me. Kindly help. Thanks

Oops!
Explanation of ECTS is somewhat confusing and less comprehendible.
We have tried to evaluate and calculate ECTS using our course units and unfortunately, it's still inaccurate.
If you did those courses asked (*3 times), just apply and be hopeful. That's all I'll say.

Don't fret much about it!

yr2020:
See what I’m saying thanks for the graceful response

Pls Note; You can bring your kids and wife while applying too for a visa. You have to show NOK 264,264 or so

[quote author=yr2020 post=95886852]Good day everyone,
Really appreciate the manner of response here that’s why I feel free to ask these questions;

Let me shed some light on the grey areas;


1) For NTNU applicant as you said, you're to show a document of funding during the admission application period. You have no business with the Embassy right now. It's when you've been given admission - and subsequently transferred the funds to the school. You'd be given a receipt by the school which you will use for visa application and other required documents. What you need right now is to upload a personal bank statement or sponsorship letter ( all slightly higher than NOk 123,519).


2) Your wife is applying too. She's to be in Norway before she can bring them. She must have spent a year in Norway at least. The applicant (your kids) can apply later after your wife ( referenced person) has spent a year in Norway. There are some flexible conditions to fulfill though.

3) For admission processes, each person to their name. Everyone is applying individually likewise Visa too as neither of you are in Norway already.


4) If NTNU is really your desired school, then you have to send your transcript too. Though, some lucky folks got accepted years back without sending the official transcript but they didn't make that school their desired school.
Do the right thing RIGHT!


5) check the website, read the requirement and if you beat it, then apply!!



Best of luck!
