On the average from October 1st to Dec 1st
Some do start Nov 1st to Dec 1st
Some usually extends deadline to February 1st.

Check the schools you are interested in

Yes and No grin

It all depends on the school and the program.
I saw one masters program in INN with deadline April 20.

But most masters application is from October at least till February at most.

Are you applying this year?

Thank you for your response boss. A quick one, is it true that if you were denied previously in a schengen country that it can also lead to a denial in Norway or other schengen countries. Also! If you are denied visa for Norway study visa. Can it be appealed?

CuteTj:
@ uchechukwu007, there is no interview. All you need do is submit your passport along with your documents and after their checks, they will notify you if your visa request is denied or issued.

@ KillerBeauty, when the school notifies you if you have been granted admission, they usually give a one month window in which you have to transfer the money.

@ vinlyreeks, you only need one transcript for multiple study programs in one school. The admission office of the school is the department that receives the transcript and it can be accessed by all the departments you are applying to.

@ lady25, if visa is denied, the school will send the money back to the applicant. All you need do is notify them.

@ toyin03, yes Norway is expensive compared to other European countries but at the same time their salaries are higher compared to those countries. Vaseline I buy in Lagos for N300, after currency conversions, its N930 in London but 1250 here in Norway. When you get a job and start earning their currency, you will realize life here is not expensive as you are made to believe as you generally will be earning well. Its only expensive if you bring your own currency and start doing all the conversions.

Yes. I and my son have joined my wife in Norway.

Fiance!! I don't remember mentioning fiance. Although I know boyfriends/girlfriends/fiance/fiancee can visit their partners for periods but its only applicable to partners of Norwegian citizens and I think that was just a different visa program during the lockdown when there were strict entry requirements. I don't know if the program is still ongoing as entry restrictions have been lifted.

@ anakinmike, I doubt as a student you will get anything more than a 1 month visa validity. If you need more than a month, apply for another visa category. But why will you need 8 - 9 months visa validity if I may ask?

@ Omini247, they cant deny you admission on that basis. So far you meet the requirements, you are good.

@ Mykelslim, their Msc programs are 2 year programs. Bsc, 3 years.

Hi guys,
I'm a prospective student of nord university.
The international passport I used for my application is expiring by May. Though, I have gone for a renewal. I hope this won't affect my admission. Admission letters are expected to start rolling out by March 30th.

Thanks

The passport was still valid during the admission application deadline. It won't affect your admission.

Try and get your new passport for visa processing.

Not in all cases. If the issue that made them reject an application in another schengen country is not cleared up, then it might also lead to a refusal by Norway. When you apply to Norway after a refusal by another country, the ask you why were u rejected.

Yes you can appeal a study permit refusal by Norway but if there is no new development or document on your part, the denial is most likely to be upheld.

Very very slim! I personally know of a lady that was denied. Maybe if you have strong ties to your country (say you are married and with children) your case might be an exception.

I guess you are the one that mailed me. I have replied. In addition to what I said, student visa fee is like 280k while your spouse will be almost 640k depending on exchange rate fluctuations.

Thank you.

@ TNORWAY, clarify your comment.

@ Ajibolaoi, its free for children under 18. 640k for your spouse.
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Ajibolaoi: 11:54am On Feb 08, 2022
Do you mean 640,000 thousand Naira

Yes. 640,000 Naira.

Wow. That's extremely high for a student's visa. As in, that's the visa fee required for obtaining the student visa to Norway?

Honestly, I'm stunned! shocked
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Easternheart: 9:24pm On Feb 08, 2022
Doubt if that figure is accurate. 640K for partners? �. Children under the age of 18 are not required to pay fees. So multiply 280k per applicant by 2 = 560K.

280K per applicant over the age of 18.
It should be 560K (for student with his/her spouse)

Students and their spouses do not pay the same visa fee. Their visa categories are different. Find attached the visa fees for family immigration and for studies.

I am currently in Norway on a family immigration permit. After foreign exchange, what I paid as visa fee amounted to N640,000 for myself and N280,000 for my wife. This was before Naira:Dollar became 570:1. So I can bet that that amounted would have further increased.

Another look just before posting this and I discovered that study permit visa fee has increased. When my wife applied for her visa, it was 4000 and something NOK but I can see that it has now been increased to 5,900 NOK.

Prospective students should brace up!

Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Easternheart: 9:57pm On Feb 08, 2022
In the attached is it the *First-time application for family immigration for adults* 10500 NOK you paid??

Okay. I get it now.

Thanks for the clarification..

Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by uchechukwu007(m): 6:24am On Feb 10, 2022
Thank you so much for the feedback but I am confused on one part. What do you mean by cleared up? Basically I have be rejected visa by a schengen country and their reasons were 1. no language certificate 2. My study plans is not clear abii untrue

3. Didn’t pass the maths test given on interview date. I appealed and it was still rejected..So my question is. In a situation like this, what do you mean by been clearEd in the context you reply. Also! For rejections like this from another schengen country. Does it stand as a yardstick for an automatic rejection from Norway.

Schengen countries share the same database with regards to applications, refusals and visa issuance.

When you apply to Norway, there is a part they ask if you have been rejected by another Schengen country. State yes and the reason (that is what I mean by clearing it up). Since the reason for the refusal was something mundane and not crime related (false documentation, forgery, false information etc.).

A refusal by another country does not mean an automatic rejection by Norway. Only a ban from another Schengen country will mean an outright ban from Norway.
