Countries That Offer Free University Education

University Education is getting rather too expensive for those who really want to obtain it. If you juxtapose the cost of private/public university education in Nigeria to the will of those who wish to get admissions you will see a very large space between the two.


In this light, we decide to make a post to assist parents/students who would like to go outside the boundaries of Nigeria or shores of Africa to get affordable university education. For the records, these universities do not offer totally free courses. They operate a tuition free system.
Now check them out then make your pick:

 
Sweden

Up until 2010, Sweden had been one of the few countries in Europe that had no educational cost expenses. It didn't make a difference what your nationality was as Swedish citizens would take care of everything. Be that as it may, every single good thing comes to an end and in 2010, the Swedish parliament passed a law to bill educational cost and application expenses for non-EU/EEA understudies. In the meantime, scholarship programs were offered.

Despite the fact that there are no educational cost free colleges in Sweden any longer, countless establishments offer full grants (educational cost waivers, and so on) for global understudies.

Norway

There are many of my old students who presently school in Norway. Many international students flock to Norway to study as they get a high quality education at little to no cost. The Norwegian government finances education with taxpayers' money so foreign students along with native students can enjoy a free ride at state universities. But the catch with studying in Norway is that living expenses can be high, to cater for room and board, clothing, healthcare, transport and miscellaneous expenses.


The Norwegian Universities and College Admission Service (NUCAS) is the coordinator of undergraduate admission.


Germany

These low study costs, combined with Germany’s strong economy and excellent higher education system, makes the prospect of undertaking study in Germany for free extremely appealing for both students and their parents worldwide.

German universities have only recently started charging tuition fees for undergraduate study programs. Right now, just 4 out of 16 Federal states - Baden-Wurttemberg, Bavaria, Hamburg, and Lower Saxony- charge tuition fees that are as little as 500 Euros per semester. All other federal states just request a small semester contribution of around 50 Euros with no tuition fees charged. Isn’t that cool!


University of Oslo

The University of Oslo has several noteworthy academics and alumni, spanning many disciplines. The university has produced five Nobel Prize winners and is institutionally connected to some of the world's most prestigious prizes. Between 1947 and 1989, the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded at this university. Furthermore, it is the only university to host a Nobel Prize ceremony.


Finland

Before now there were no tuition fees for studying in Finland. From 2017 non EU/EEA students started paying tuition fees (for courses offered in English). Each University has it's own fee structure. University of Helsinki and University of Turku are top ranked universities of Finland. Students need to cover their living expenses.

Norway and other Nordic countries. On average, German students spend roughly 800 Euros for accommodation, transport, food, and other necessities. Germany's research driven programs are a top draw and they have been the inspiration for today's American graduate schools.


France

France also boasts of affordable and relatively free university education.

Although technically university fees do exist at public universities in France, they’re just a fraction of those charged in most countries, amounting to just €184 (~US$195) per year at undergraduate level to cover course administration. Additional charges can bring this price up, particularly for more specialized programs such as medicine and engineering, but not dramatically. If you’re looking to study at a leading grande école, however, expect fees to vary widely.
As is the case in Germany, the majority of programs offering the chance to study in France for free are taught in the native language. However, there are a growing number of opportunities to study in English, particularly at graduate level. Alternatively, you can also attend a preparatory school to perfect your French skills before beginning your degree, but this you’ll have to pay for.
