These are the only undergraduate degree programs offered in English in Norway:

:: Bachelor of Arts; Nordic perspective on Politics, Biology & Management at Bodø University College

:: Bachelor in Acting and Sceneography at Østfold University College/Norwegian Theatre Academy

:: Bachelor in Biology at Bodø University College

:: Bachelor in Business Administration (BBA) at BI Norwegian School of Management

:: Bachelor in Development Studies at Norwegian University of Life Sciences (UMB)

:: Bachelor of Shipping and Finance at BI Norwegian School of Management

Other courses in English are generally only offered to exchange students who come here to study for one year. To be accepted to any other degree program, fluent Norwegian is required. Most people prove their proficiency through a test called Bergenstesten. It took me a year of full time study to pass the test, despite having fluent Swedish (not as a native language though).

A residence permit isn't required for citizens of countries in the EU. You just need to pre-register online, then visit your local police station in Norway with documentation that proves you have the funds to support yourself while here.

Unless you're willing to put at least a year into studying the Norwegian language (many immigrants take 2-3 years), your only options are to come on exchange with a British university, or wait until you've graduated. There are plenty of Master's programs available in English. I highly recommend studying Norwegian meanwhile, though. It would help immensely in finding part-time work and having a good social life. Here's information on how to apply:

Also be aware that Norway is incredibly expensive. Most costs are 2x what they are in the UK, and food is especially expensive.

Well not speaking Norwegian is a huge handicap!! Why on earth not just go to university in England? Anyway I googled the institution you mentioned and all the application details are clearly set out there, so I suggest you try it for yourself!!

You observe to US faculties approximately nine months earlier than you wish to wait. So pupils who wish to begin university Fall of 2013, must begin making use of overdue this autumn. Most programs will open up in September. Many university's cut-off date dates might be a million/a million/thirteen for Fall of 2013
