Admission of international students
Exchange Students

Students from partner institutions who want to take a part of their studies (3 - 12 months) at Gjøvik UC should apply through the International Office at their home institution and in accordance with the established local procedures.
At Gjøvik University College most courses are taught in Norwegian, and even though there are no linguistic requirements for students within the Erasmus programme, foreign students should have a satisfactory command of the Norwegian language if they intend to take courses taught in Norwegian. Some courses are taught in English .
