Bergen National Academy of the Arts (KHiB) is one of the two independent institutions of higher learning in the visual arts and design in Norway. Read more about our objectives and formal structure.
Completing a university degree is often considered to be an expensive endeavour and tuition fees are usually making up the bulk part of the cost. Norwegian universities, state university colleges and art academies as a rule do not charge tuition fees for international students. However, you should take into consideration that living expenses in Norway are higher than in many other countries.
