The scheme is most typically applied for a period of 3-6 months, with a maximum limit of 12 months. IMPORTANT NOTES TO FOREIGN STUDENTS: Students who apply must meet all the following basic requirements:     Must have a working knowledge of Norwegian language.     Must have a valid residence permit in Norway (FNI can not assist with this).     Must have a place to live in the Oslo area (FNI can not assist with this).     Must have own economic means (as FNI's modest economic support only covers a small part of the high living costs in Norway). Please also note that scholarship holders must write their thesis at FNI. No scholarship can be given to students not physically present at FNI during the writing period. If you meet all the requirements above, and are interested in applying for the scholarsip scheme, please go on and read the more detailed description in Norwegian.
