Explore Norway, recognized several times by the UN Human Development Report as "the best country to live in".

You now have two options to explore this spectacular and fascinating country:

Bodø University College lies just north of the Arctic Circle on the rugged and beautiful Northwestern coast surrounded by breathtaking mountains and fjords. The Midnight Sun in the summer and the spectacular Aurora Borealis, or Northern lights, continually dazzle local residents and international students alike.

Vestfold University College is on the East coast of Norway – just one hour from the country’s capital Oslo. The region is a popular tourist destination, especially in the summer months. There are over one hundred beaches which makes swimming and boating excursions popular activities. During the winter there are great opportunities to go skiing, either cross country or down hill. Vestfold County houses an international airport - Sandefjord Torp - with cheap flights to all major cities in Europe.

Whether you are traveling to the rugged Northwest or the charming Southeast of Norway you are sure certain to have an extraordinary experience while studying abroad!
