Sweden gives one year now.

Chances of getting admission is high since you are paying for it,please correct me if I am wrong.....They require transcripts to be sent to them by the school via email not post[/quote]

Good evening everyone, how’s it going for everyone? Please I need some answers to the following questions
1. Can the closing balance on the bank statement be the exact amount to document I.e 123519 NOK or it’s advisable to have a little above it?
2. MUST the bank statement the stamped by the bank or one can download from the mobile bank app?
3. I intend to use my husband’s company account. Although it is co owned by the both of
us. Do I still need to upload a sponsor letter?
4. Please is there anyone in this group who intends to travel with his or her spouse or anyone who has traveled with his or her spouse before?? Please I need you help .


I’d be glad if my questions are answered thank you ��
kindly come to my aid oo... thanks and God bless

Hello Efair!

I'll gladly answer all questions asked in the order it was thrown;


1) Having a closing balance of NOK 123,519 ain't really advisable ( looking at the interest rates and currency fluctuations). Make provision for those contingencies. Try to raise it slightly higher at least to be on a safer lane.


2) If you've it stamped, that's lovely but the downloadable ones on Bank apps suffices too. It's official too. I used the one normally received monthly. So it's all acceptable.

3) If both of your name is on the statement, then it's satisfactory providing your name is also there. If it's not, then your Hubby needs to draft a sponsorship letter. BTW, a sponsorship letter is pretty easy to sample. I have samples.


4) To bring your Hubby and kids is 100% possible. The applicant ( your Hubby) is entitled to work 40hrs per week and your kids enjoy the privileges other kids enjoys too. I know applicants intending to bring their spouse and kids when they get there.


Additionally, it's equally possible to bring your fiancé/fiancée too.


Best of luck!

They are both fantastic Nordic countries - and Yes! Their admission is restricted like Norway too.
The only ish Sweden has is that upon completion of your MSC programme, one is to spend just 6mths to look for a job unlike Norway which is a year.

They are both good destinations. Anything about Sweden, please direct it to the appropriate thread.


On the other hand, if you have entertaining questions on admission processes, visa enquires and significant others, kindly ask on the thread. I should be able to answer and lay mind at rest.

Best of luck!

Thank you Arinze, I really appreciate, thanks for the clarification and taking out time to explain. I’d sure let you know if I need any other info.
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by oscarpellenchy: 11:54am On Nov 10, 2020
Not at all...I tried to pursue the Sweden route but was discouraged by lots of things topmost being the 6 months post study permit and others like the application fee of 900 Swedish currency, thats around #39,000...so i had to pit my tent with Norway...



Hoverboy27:
I know. But you never still answer my question. You wey dey pursue Sweden, why the implications never discourage you?

Tell us the way na
What exactly do you have in mind?
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by teewaik: 11:56am On Nov 10, 2020
Thank you very much

Yes, 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.
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by teewaik: 12:20pm On Nov 10, 2020
Please I was about registering on the SøknadsWeb portal for UIS. I discovered from a query done on my Gmail account that I once registered in 2018, can’t even remember the school. Thereafter, I tried remembering/generating a password, the portal said the ‘’password could not be set. Are you registered?’’. So my question is can I do another registration, since it seems that my email is showing that it’s not in the system. I read something about disqualification, if I use the same email address to register in the system.


Thanks
Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by yr2020: 12:45pm On Nov 10, 2020
Good day everyone,
Really appreciate the manner of response here that’s why I feel free to ask these questions;

1. Been trying to get where it states that I sent my bank statement while applying for admission but I didn’t. Could it be that it’s required when applying for visa?

2. To avoid delay, my wife also wants to apply so the kids(2) can accompany her. Is it okay?

3. If she applies as my spouse how reliable is it?

4. I already have a copy of my transcript. Can I send my transcript or have my school send another one?

5. Abeg the University is NTNU. Anybody with an experience with the school application ?

Thanks as I await response

[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!

Hello sir/ma guess we are in the same shoe.I'm also currently running a masters at unilag, with the intention of going for another masters in a different programme at NTNU...Could we possibly share contacts. I just needed someone we could run this things together....Thanks for your response

My advice will be that you do not include your masters in your application.
I think priority is given to international students who have not done a masters yet.

This isnt true....You actually have a higher chance because they are looking out for people that can meet up with the standard

Okay and Thanks...I think i will just give them only the docs they ask for...Just BSC...They already said any extra documents, asides what was asked doesnt influence the decision and will just delay the application..

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!
