Information for incoming students

There is an Erasmus+ International Dimension collaboration between UiS and RNCM, meaning that outgoing students are eligible for applying for Erasmus+ International Dimension grants.

Krav om språkkunnskaper

Two-semester exchanges
Students being admitted to RNCM must be able to demonstrate that their level of English language meets the necessary entrance requirements: English Language Requirements

One-semester exchanges

For students going abroad for one semester only, RNCM is permitted to waive the requirements following an internal assessment: This would require the student to complete an online test, attend an online interview with a Language Support tutor and submit a short piece of written work. The tutor would then make a recommendation on language level to check against the requirements.

Antall utvekslingsplasser totalt

The number of exchange places is not given, it will depend on the number of applicants and how many students the exchange institution has the capacity to accept for the semester in question. This means that there is almost always competition for exchange places, and that great emphasis is placed on the quality of your application.
