Norway, with its population of just over 5 million, is one of the three Scandinavian countries. It is ranked as one of the best countries to live in and has one of the lowest crime rates in the world. All the more reason to move in Norway!

Norwegian values are rooted in egalitarian ideals and Norway is a progressive welfare state. Openness, equality and equal rights are important values that you will experience.

The Norwegian lifestyle is strongly connected to the time spent on studies and work. The work/life balance has become more demanding, with increasing expectations of professional and personal availability.

It is increasingly common in Norway to complete higher education. One of the reasons is the fact that taking a degree is affordable.

The educational system is generally state-supported, to ensure that access to education is equal for all. This means that most institutions have no tuition fees. With such favourable conditions, you are almost expected to get a degree and experience the carefree student life.

Norway is growing steadily as a cultural nation. People are interested in culture, and they are willing to spend time and money on it. Culture is not, however, only consumed. In Norway there is also a widespread culture for participating in and contributing to culture and cultural growth.
