Support for local language courses from Lånekassen

For students who want to improve their foreign language skills, it is also recommended to consider taking a language course in the country where they will be studying before their international stay. If you go on an exchange to a study destination where the language of instruction is different from English, you can apply to Lånekassen for support for preparatory language courses. Please heck the specific conditions that apply. It is the student's responsibility to obtain the necessary documentation and apply for support from Lånekassen.
