tuition free universities

If you fail to qualify for fully-fundeduniversity scholarships, consider enrolling in universities that are tuition free or charge low tuition fees or those offering tuition fee waivers. Countries likeNorway, Austria,Germany,Finland, andSwedenoffer different types of free/low tuition schemes and tuition waivers for international students.

Norwegian state universities and university colleges as a rule do not charge tuition fees to all students including international students.This applies toall levels, including undergraduate studies, Masters programmes and Ph.D. programmes. However, students will have to pay a semester fee of NOK 300-600 each semester.

Note that some state universities and university colleges may have tuition fees for a few specialized programmes which are typically at the Masters level.  Most private institutions have tuition fees for all their programmes and courses. But the fees are usually significantly lower than those of comparable studies in most other countries. Also, foreign students don’t pay higher tuition fees than Norwegian students.
