Why choose NSSS?

 

The Norwegian School of Sport Sciences (NSSS) has an increasing number of exchange students each year. You will be living in a city that has all the benefits of a capital, while never being more than a 20-minutes bus ride from the sea or the forest. The location, facilities and resources are ideal for studies, physical activity and recreation.

Former exchange students point to the relatively small size of the institution as one of its great advantages. Small classes make the relationship between students and teachers quite close, and it is easy to get involved in a variety of student groups. Here you can read about the experiences of some of the former exchange students:
