An online education at Noroff via Nackademin suits you who want a little extra freedom and flexibility during your studies. All online courses consist of digital content in the form of pre-recorded lessons and/or digital study material that students can access anytime and anywhere. The courses are generally shorter than traditional university of applied sciences courses and can be taken at full or half-time - perfect for those who want to combine studies with work or other fun!

Q: Are the online courses CSN-eligible?

All online courses are CSN-eligible, which means you can apply for grants and loans for your time as a student. You can also apply for a loan for the tuition fee as well as additional cost loans when the studies are conducted at our Norwegian partner school Noroff.
