NORAM offers scholarships to U.S. citizens pursuing graduate level studies in Norway. The purpose of the scholarship program is to provide financial support for Americans to study in Norway. By supporting post-graduate study or research in areas of mutual importance to Norway and the United States, we hope to bring the two countries closer. Through awarding scholarships to American students and researchers, we invest in the growth of knowledge and understanding and it will strengthen the ties of friendship between the two countries.

The scholarship amounts vary up to NOK 40 000. The size of each individual grant will depend on the research subject, purpose, financial need, and the intended length of stay in Norway.

Requirements:

  • Scholarships are limited to full-time graduate-level study in Norway (exchange or full degree). Online courses and summer programs are not eligible.
  • The project description must be of academic merit, and the project must be feasible within the proposed framework.
  • Students can apply without being accepted to an institution before the application deadline, but must submit documentation of admission/invitation if awarded a scholarship.
  • The project/academic field must be of mutual benefit to the two countries.
  • It is not possible to apply for funding for past semesters.
