Middle-East on a per capita basis. It has the fourth highest per capita income

in the world. It ranks first on the World Happiness Report and has the lowest

crime rates in the world. Norway is a member of the United Nations

Organisation and other prominent world bodies like the World Trade

Organisation. The capital city is Oslo and the currency is the Norwegian

Krone. Even though Bokmal and Nynorsk are the official languages, English is

widely spoken by less than 80% of the population. It is the 14th preferred

destination for international students.

A student gets to experience natural adventure during stay in Norway. Aurora

Borealis(The Northern Lights) along with midnight sun are only few of the

attractions that enthral foreigners. All of these are along with foxes and polar

bears, deep fjords and dense forests. All courses are taught in English, as

compared to many other European countries. Most Norwegian universities

are tuition free, even though some specialised courses may charge fees.

Winter is cold and dark.

important factors such as human rights and cultural freedom. The welfare

system of Norway is one of the best in the world since it ensures that those

who are unemployed or are unable to work are able to live a life of dignity.

parents. All students in Norway can work for 20 hours per week during their
