What IELTS score do you need for Nord University?

Both levels share the exemptions: applicants exempted under the GSU country list, applicants with at least one year of upper secondary or university study taught in English in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Great Britain or the USA, applicants with a degree in English language and literature including at least 60 ECTS of relevant courses, and applicants who completed a master's degree taught in English.

A bachelor's applicant can also qualify with an English course of 140 hours per year at a Norwegian upper secondary school. Programmes taught entirely in English have no Norwegian language requirement.

Nord's admission FAQ says students with citizenship outside the EU/EEA and Switzerland must pay tuition fees, unless they are exchange students from partner universities or doctoral candidates. All degree students also pay a semester fee. For the main autumn intake, non-EU/EEA applications open on 1 November and close on 1 December, with a document deadline of 8 December. Degree programmes start in August and there is no spring admission.

The FAQ says the documentation deadlines are absolute and exceptions cannot be made. Book your IELTS early enough for the result to arrive before then.

Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Nord University programme page and in your offer, so check it there before you book a test.
