Quota Scheme (support for students from developing countries, Central- and Eastern Europe and Central Asia)

The goal of the Quota Programme is to give students relevant education that would also benefit their home countries when they return after graduation. Also, the programme contributes to strengthen Norwegian institutions of higher education's participation in the global knowledge cooperation.

The Quota Scheme encompasses 1,100 students annually. Starting for the school year 2005-2006, 800 of the students will be from developing countries, while 300 will come from countries in Central- and Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Please see the complete list of countries that are eligible under the programme.

As of January 1, 2005, the administration of the Scheme was transferred to SIU and the institutions should from now direct all inquiries regarding the Scheme to SIU instead of the Ministry of Education and Research. The State Educational Loan Fund ("Lånekassen") is still responsible for managing the financial support provided for the Quota Scheme students.

A brochure containing information about the quota scheme is available for download here. Paper copies may also be ordered from the same page.
