I thought a post graduate diploma pgd can be used in place of bsc

The admission requirement for most Norge universities is BSc.. This means they might only evaluate applicants based on BSc...

The required documents to have, what's the process like, does paying for application fee guarantee you a place?

From your questions I know you have not taking some of your time to do little research about Sweden. Do some research about Sweden at your free time because it will help you a lot.

1) Application fee doesn't guarantee a place. (but when you say application fee, do you mean for admission application or for Visa application?) because you need to gain admission. In your admission letter all the procedure will be there, like payment of tuition fees, visa applications etc.

2) On the admission portal, you will have the option to apply to four universities with four masters programmes and rank them according to priority.

3) With regards to English test, Nigerians don't need to document it. WAEC or NECO and bachelors study is enough requirements.

4) with regards to official transcript, you only need to send 1 copy of your transcript to the admission postal address. This will be access by all 4 universities you have applied to. So no need of sending individually to all four universities. This helps to save costs.

Good day everyone.

Please I am applying to NTNU, Norway for a masters program (Sustainable Energy) and I have a bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering with a CGPA of 3.94.

1.) What are my chances of gaining admission?

2.) The school have an exemption for English Proficiency test for countries whose bachelor degree were taught in English. Nigeria was included.
My bachelors degree was taught completely in English but I have a D7 in WAEC and a C6 in NECO. Do I still need to provide an English language test?

Thanks.

(1) My advice to you is to apply. Check the school requirements and make that you have them. Also submit all required documents.

(2) Upload the two results to your application. Also upload a scratch card from both WAEC and NECO.

You can used a Master degree if you have completed the Master Degree and it is related to the programme to intend studying in Norway.

Also note that some schools will only evaluate your application based on your BSc.

Depending on your programme, some schools required work experience while other do not need it. You will see information on the school website. you can also email the respective schools if you are confuse at any point.

I just started looking at this Norway stuff. Oboi .. I confuse die like this. I have read some pages to get myself up to speed and already selected courses. My priority now is UiS... civil engineering programme. But my brother I need clarifications.

1. I just rounded up my NYSC and my school hasnt processed my cert but I have my result statement & transcript. Will that be okay?

2. You said my school needs to mail documents (cert and transcript), is it by post or email?

3. Dont I need to get admission first before sending these documents (cert and transcript) to avoid wastage of money?

4. If I provide 5.5m account, do I still need to provide a sponsorship letter?

5. Is jobs easy to get in Norway? Cos u know say man gats make the pepper ooo... cos shingbai nor gum boys

Thanks in adv

1: you can upload both documents to your application. But some schools only access statement of results that are few years old(like 2years).
Both documents are not enough as you still need contact your issuing university to mail the hard copies of your transcripts in a sealed envelope to the schools you're applying to.

2: Yes, Mail the hard copies. The document will have to be in a sealed envelope that has not been tampered with. I think your school will send it directly.
With regards to sending documents by email, You can contact the school directly because most schools accepts mailed documents. The method on how to send the documents can be found on the schools websites.

3: Sending hard copies to them is a cateria for your admission application to be considered. So you need to send hard copies. This way, they will know that you truly have acquired the educational result that you're applying with.

4: No, you don't need the sponsor letter if you have the said amount on your bank statement.

5: Jobs in Norway? This I can't make conclusion on because I'm also a prospective students like you too. From what I have seen online, a little or more of the language is required and it depends on the jobs you will be applying for.

Thanks. Sorry to derail the thread but is this applicable to all countries where bank account statement are required or just Norway? Im just trying to spread my net to several countries well

I can't really tell if it is applicable to other countries.

I heard of someone that travelled to Canada on a visit visa.
She put the money in the account, printed the bank statement then withdrew out the money from the account.

I think this method can be used for school admission not sure about Visa purposes.

Will they accept this? I thought they only want to see a bank statement with sizeable monthly cash inflows and outflows... not just one lump sized inflow

What do u think?

What they are interested in, is only the closing balance on the account statement and also sponsor letter (if you have a sponsor). so even if you put the money in your account this week and get the bank statement next week. It won't affect anything.

If he does that, and eventually travels, won't he run into trouble with immigration during Point of entry...
Lets assume he passes the point of entry interrogation, is he not required to have sufficient proof of funds before he is offered residence permit??

@adedejis2 said it was for admission purpose not visa application and will repay over 2 to 3 years after getting to Norway. He asked if it was OK to dropped the said amount in his account, get the statement and then transferred the money back to the owner. I only responded to the question he asked and nothing more.

However, after gaining admission, he will be required to send the amount to the Norwegian school for Visa application.

Hi guys, I need ur advice.
I have someone willing to loan me about 6mill by January next year, which I'm to repay over 2-3years. My prob nw is, by January, it would be too late to get an admission cos i was seeing dec 1 as application deadline for non eu citizens.
If I can get the person to pay the 6mill to my acc by october ending, then transfer it back to him after mayb 2days, then request for my account statement b4 the money leaves my account, tender it to the schools i want to apply to, will the schools confirm from my bank if funds is still intact in my account as seen on my statement?
#for some reasons, the person loaning me the money said he cant drop his company's statement

Yes you can upload the Bank statement before 1st December as long as it shows the NOK 123 519 equivalent. The schools will not contact the Bank that issued the statement.

Some schools exempt Nigerians, check the schools.

Like NTNU exempt Nigerians but still required that a letter from your university confirming that the language of Instruction was English be uploaded on the application portal, see the attached photo of the response I got from them. So check with the individual university
