Studystart

Congratulations, you are about to start studying, and your paid semester fee. This provides you with a lot of different possibilities.

You can get student housing and train at our facilities at subsidized rates. If in need, you can get help from counselors and psychologists if things go awry. You can let very competent employees in our kindergartens take care of your most important (if you have reached that phase in life). You can enjoy nutritious food at our restaurants or get even more out of your student life by attending one of our many courses. We also support student volunteering and can help you start your organization.

All welfare services for the student organization (Samkipnaden) are financed by the semester fee, direct state support, or other support. Samskipnaden is a non-profit organization led by a board, where the students have the majority and the board's chairperson. Equal right to education is an essential principle in Norway. Equal right to good welfare services is also crucial, and it all starts with the semester fee.
