Is it cheaper to study in sweden or norway for a bachelor's degree?
Is it cheaper to study in sweden or norway for a bachelor's degree?
I want to study in Sweden or Norway but i am having a hard time finding which one is cheaper. i know that higher education is free, except for a few fee's such as the student union's, but i hear that it is more expensive to live there. I also hear that i have to have proof of having at least 10,000 to 15,000 euros per month. what i really want to know is ,overall, where is it cheaper to study, i know that both have high education standards.

This answer only deals with Sweden. Higher education is no longer free for everyone. Only citizens of member states of the European Economic Area and Switzerland, certain family members of such citizens and persons with residence permits issued not on the strength of the studies are exempt from tuition fees. Tution fees are supposed to cover the actual cost and vary between universities and programmes, but are in most cases in the range 90 000-140 000 SEK per year.

What the Swedish guy said applies for Norway, too. Luckily, my father was Norwegian, so at age 18 I chose to become a citizen of Norway, therefore I can study there for almost free! Which is what I am doing. I think the price in Norway should be the same as Sweden, maybe slightly higher, as the Norwegian Krone is worth a little more than the Swedish one.
