WELCOME TO
BI NORWEGIAN BUSINESS SCHOOL
Congratulations on your decision to study at BI Norwegian Business School! Whether you are coming to Oslo for
one semester or several years, we sincerely hope you will enjoy your stay. We will be here to support you along the
way, but we leave it to you to make the most of it. Besides your studies, we encourage you to be active - participate
in student associations, get to know Oslo and explore the rest of Norway as well.
This Survival Guide provides practical information about studying at BI, as well as advice and guidelines for
living in Norway.
Norway
Friendly, down-to-earth people, unique scenery, summer nights bright as day and delightful snowy winters make Norway a very special coun-try.
It is easy for a foreigner to feel at home in this widespread and diverse corner of the world. English is widely spoken, and coping with day-to-day life in Norway does not require profi ciency in Norwegian. In 2012 the population of Norway reached 5 million.
Shipping, maritime, oil and gas, pulp and paper products, chemicals, shipbuilding and fi shing are the most signifi cant industries.
Employment rates remain currently high, and the prospects for economic growth are encouraging. International students are allowed to work part-time during their studies.
Norway is a very safe country to live in. Its crime rate is amongst the lowest in the world, and its environment and air are amongst the cleanest. A healthy living style is widely encouraged and promoted. The spectacular Norwegianw nature off ers exciting opportunities for outdoor activities all year round: hiking, mountain climbing, hunting, cycling, raft ing, swimming, golf, sailing, skiing – the choice is yours! Breathtaking views of fj ords and mountain landscapes are easily accessible at no cost. Each season has its own special features and charm.

Oslo – a diff erent European capital
Situated between the forest and the fj ord, Oslo off ers a great variety of activities and scenery. You can start the day eating breakfast on the beach while watching the sunrise, enjoy the throbbing city life and vast arrays of cafés, restaurants, galleries and shopping facilities downtown during the day, and at night sit around a bonfi re with your friends in the woods overlooking the city.Oslo is big enough for all this to happen, but still small enough for you to do it all in a day!
The capital of Norway is home to some 60 000 students, and off ers the perfect backdrop for you to lead an exciting and fulfi lling student life. Whatever your passion, you will fi nd other students with the same interests. Or maybe you want to take this opportunity to engage in something completely new and diff erent?

Mandatory Tuberculosis test
Norwegian law requires citizens of certain countries with high occurrence of tuberculosis who will reside in Norway for more than three months to take a tuberculosis test and chest x-ray within two weeks of arrival. The examination is free of charge. Further information will be provided by the Police upon registration.
Student ID card
Your personal BI student ID card is used as proof of identity at exams and with the BI administration. It also makes you eligible for student discounts on public transport. You can use it to borrow books in the library on campus, to pay for snacks from the vending machines, for printing and copying.
The card is only valid with the correct semester tag. Please note that the student ID card is not valid as proof of identity outside of BI. Have your picture taken for your student ID card in the Student Service Centre in U1 upon arrival to BI.
Work permit and tax deduction card
Your study permit is also a part-time work permit. As a full time student you are allowed to work up to 20 hours a week during the semester and full time during holidays. If you do not know any Norwegian, your best chances of fi nding a job is in the service sector (hotels, restaurants, bars, cafés and tourist shops).
You are required to have a tax deduction card when you work in Nor-way. The tax deduction card shows how much your employer should deduct from your salary.You can request a tax card from Skatt Øst (Oslo Tax Offi ce) once you have a job off er, by bringing your work con-tract and your Residence Card/Registration Certifi cate to their offi ce. Contact details: see p. 9.
If you have a job off er, your employer will expect you to have a Norwegian bank account, into which they can transfer your salary. It is customary to give your bank account number to your employer upon employment.
Open a bank account
In Norway for more than one semester? Students staying in Norway for more than one semester may choose to open a Norwegian bank account. This is an inexpensive solution compared to using your foreign VISA or credit card for a longer period of time.
To open a bank account, you must wait until you have your Residence Card or Registration Confi rmation and your Norwegian Identity Number (fødselsnummer). Bring these documents as well as your passport to any bank. Note that some banks are unwilling to take on foreign students as customers. We have good experience with Sparebank1. They have branches all around Oslo, for instance at Storo senter, close to BI campus.
In Norway for one semester only? You may open a bank account if you are staying in Norway for less than six months as well. However, the procedure is time-consuming: The bank must apply for a D-number for you in order to take you on as a customer. It normally takes three
to four weeks until your bank account is activated. In addition, you may have a challenge fi nding a bank that is willing to go through this application process. Try Sparebank1 at Storo senter. Remember to bring your Residence Card/Registration Certifi cate and your passport.
Mobile phone
In Norway most people have a mobile phone. If you have an unlocked GSM mobile phone, you can bring it with you and purchase a Norwegian SIM card.
Pre-paid cards are easily available in kiosks and convenience stores like 7-Eleven and Narvesen. A monthly subscription requires that you have a Norwegian ID-number (i.e staying in Norway for more than six months).
Basic phones with a subscription or a pre-paid card are readily available for a fair price. Mobile phones can be bought in stores that sell electrical equipment or in telecommunication stores.
Please remember to register your Norwegian phone number on @BI, as the administration sometimes sends out text messages (SMS) to inform you of cancellations in your lecturers, etc.
ACADEMICS
Norway is one of the leading countries conforming to the guidelines from the Bologna Process in European higher education. The degree system based on the Bachelor, Master and Ph.D. structure has been successfully implemented, together with the ECTS credits system. Lectures are the most common way of teaching at BI. Students will ex-perience varying degrees of interaction between the Professor/lecturer (who is commonly addressed by his/her fi rst name) and the students during the lectures. Classes normally meet once or twice a week, in 2 x 45 minute long lecturers. Classes vary in size.
BI is at the forefront in digitalization of higher education. Faculty is encouraged to implement the use of modern information technology and innovative methods in their teaching. Interactive classrooms on its learning supplement the lectures and seminars.
Courses
Work load
A full-semester workload at BI is 30 ECTS credits. Master level courses account for 6 ECTS credits. Most Bachelor level courses account for 7,5 ECTS credits.
Course descriptions
The course description serves as a “contract” between the student, the lecturer and the administration at BI. For each course, it describes what each of the three “parties” can expect from each other: course outline; learning outcome; required course material; pre-requisites; methods of teaching and assessment; and exam support materials.
Exchange students are required to read the course descriptions for each course carefully, and make sure they fulfi l the prerequisites before signing up for a course.
Course descriptions for all courses can be found on @BI.
Coursework requirements
Most Bachelor level courses have assignments or tasks to be submitted during the semester. The right to take an examination depends on fulfi lled coursework requirements.

You are also responsible for submitting the coursework requirement within the given deadline, and in the right interactive classroom on itslearning (through the student portal @BI – see below). The course descriptions contain information on coursework requirements.

Use this opportunity to explore this long stretched land of the North! With its four seasons and diverse landscapes, Norway off ers vast possibilities for extraordinary experiences.
Driving in Norway
EU citizens can use their original driving license while in Norway. Non-EU citizens are allowed to use a foreign driving license for up to three months before exchanging it for a Norwegian licence. Stu-dents who bring their own car must get a driving permission from the customs. Read more: www.toll.no and www.vegvesen.no/en/home
Train
Trains are a comfortable way to travel in Norway. They can take you as far north as Bodø, by the island group of Lofoten. The train ride from Oslo to Bergen is particularly beautiful, and well worth your time.
Relax and enjoy the view along the way, as the train takes you up and over the mountains and down through the narrow valleys.
For the cheapest tickets, plan ahead and look for “minipris” tickets at
www.nsb.no. “Minipris” are non-refundable, but oft en cheaper than discounted student tickets.
Airplane
Stretching 1 800 km from the South to the North, it may not come as a surprise that Norway has one of the highest number of domestic fl ights in the world. Between the mountains and the fj ords, many towns are served with a small airport.
At the same time, the rest of Europe is never far away: if you need some new impulses during your stay, you can fl y to Berlin in 1,5 hours; London in 2 hours; Rome in 4 hours… Low-fare airlines provide relatively cheap tickets.
PRACTICALITIES
Business hours
Supermarkets are normally open from 08:00 or 09:00 until 22:00 on weekdays and until 20:00 on Saturdays. Shops in major shopping areas (Karl Johans gate and Bogstadveien) are open until around 18:00 on weekdays (some have longer opening hours on Thursdays) and until 16:00 or 18:00 on Saturdays. Shopping malls are normally open until 20:00 on weekdays and 18:00 on Saturdays.
Shops are closed on Sundays and on public holidays, with the exception of some smaller food stores (Bunnpris, Joker, Lime) and convenience stores/kiosks like 7-Eleven, Narvesen and Deli de Luca.
Banks are normally open from 09:00-15:00 Monday-Friday. Some have longer opening hours on Thursdays. Government offi ces are normally open Mon-Fri between 09:00 and 15:00/16:00, but hours may vary. Many museums are closed on Mondays.
Groceries
The least expensive grocery stores are Rema 1000 and Kiwi. They off er a basic selection of groceries, toiletries, etc. Head for Grønland, east of the city centre, to fi nd Turkish, Pakistani and south-east Asian grocery stores with good selections of vegetables, fruit and international food at a low-price.
Things for your room
IKEA is the largest and cheapest place to buy furniture, bed linen, decorations, kitchenware, textiles and more. There are two IKEA in the Oslo area – Furuset and Slependen. Furuset is most convenient. A free shuttle bus service is available from the Central Station.
Opening hours at IKEA Furuset: Monday – Friday: 10:00 – 23:00 Saturday: 09:00 – 21:00
Electricity
European continental style two-pin plugs are standard in Norway. Voltage is 220 V AC, 50 Hz. Appliances rated US 110V need a transformer.
Post packages to Norway
Packages sent to Norway must have your accurate address with your street name, house number, fl at/room number and preferably a phone number where you can be reached written on it. If you live together with someone the address must include c/o and this person’s name as indicated on the mailbox.
For declaration purposes through customs, be sure to list contents as “used personal belongings” when sending clothing, textbooks etc. We do not recommend using express mail services for this purpose, as there are rather steep, unexpected charges for clearing it through customs. Medication, cigarettes or alcohol should under no circumstances be sent by post.
Please note that Norway is not part of the EU and goods bought online from any country and shipped to Norway can be subject to custom charges and 25% tax on top of the purchase price. Goods with a value under NOK 200 and books of any value are exempt from tax and customs.
National holidays
Norwegian national holidays may diff er slightly from what you are used to. On these days most commercial businesses are closed, no news papers are printed and you can expect to struggle with irregular public transport schedules.

Climate and clothing
Oslo and Norway have four distinct seasons. The weather is constantly changing, but normally winters (Dec-March) are cold, summers (June-August) are considered warm (according to Norwegian standards), while spring and autumn connect the two in between. Parallel to the seasons, the number of daylight hours varies from 6 hours in mid-December to 20 hours in mid-June.
Summer temperatures vary from 10 degrees Celsius on rainy days to 30 degrees Celsius on nice summer days. Expect bathing temperatures of 17-22 degrees Celsius in the fj ord and lakes. Long, light evenings and nights are best spent in a park together with friends, or on the beach. From September it gets gradually colder (and darker), but the autumn can be nice with sunny days. By mid-November winter sets in, and snow usually arrives in time for Christmas. It is quite dark and cold in the months from November until the end of February, so bring warm clothes and warm boots. The white snow makes up for some of the darkness, refl ecting the little light there is. January and February are the best months for skiing and other winter activities.
In March, the days are already noticeably longer, and you can feel the warmth of the sun on good days. The fi rst sign of spring is Norwegians taking to the streets, enjoying the sunshine. This is the time when Oslo comes alive again aft er its “winter sleep”. Outdoor cafés will be packed with people as soon as the temperatures rise above the freezing point.
Norwegian law
While living in Norway you must respect the Norwegian laws.
Smoking in Norway
In Norway the law restricts smoking. The law prohibits smoking in all public buildings like the BI Campus, cinemas, municipal offi ces, railway stations etc. It is also prohibited to smoke in restaurants, bars and cafés all over Norway. Do not expect to be reminded by signs.
Beer, wine and spirits
A state-owned monopoly chain, called Vinmonopolet, controls the sale of wine and hard liquors. Beer can be bought in food stores until 20:00 on weekdays and 18:00 on Saturdays. It is not allowed to purchase beer in shops on Sundays.
The age limit for buying beer and wine is 18. For buying hard liquors the minimum age requirement is 20. If you are under 25, you are expected to show your ID without being requested when buying alcohol.
Drugs
Please note that use of any kind of drugs/narcotics is illegal in Norway. Drug off ences may result in a jail sentence and deportation.
Addressing people
Norwegians are considered to be easy going and informal. First names are commonly used. Prefi xes like Mr., Mrs. and Ms. are generally not used, only on very formal occasions.
• You should shake hands in formal situations.
• Among students and friends hand shaking is not expected. However, when being introduced for the fi rst time to someone your age it is common to shake hands and say your name.
Being late
• Be on time when going to work and school. Being late is considered impolite.
• On social occasions Norwegians are more fl exible. Being 10–15 minutes late is quite common.
Social convention
• Norwegians are friendly, but you may fi nd them reserved. However, you will oft en get a positive response if you initiate contact
• Norwegians are also known for their directness. Some fi nd this rude, but this is not intentional.
• The egalitarian values at the root of the welfare state also manifest themselves throughout Norwegian society in many ways – for instance in the fi eld of gender equality. Women expect to be treated with a more gender neutral attitude than in many other parts of the world. Also, be aware that what some might consider a light dress code is not necessarily meant to attract attention.
Common courtesy
• It is always nice to hold the door for someone, regardless of whether they are men or women.
• Old people and pregnant women appreciate it if you let them have your seat on a crowded bus. It is also appreciated if you help people with a baby carriage onto the bus or tram.
• Be discrete when looking at people and don’t stare. • Do not cut in line.
• Do not litter on the fl oor or ground. You will usually fi nd a garbage can somewhere nearby.
• Do not chat with your friends during meetings and presentations etc, when the speaker is talking.
• Switch your mobile phone to silent mode in the library, cinemas and lecture halls.
You might fi nd that some Norwegians may not agree with or follow these guidelines. However, generally observing these will help you integrate into Norwegian culture.
Service charge
Service charge and tips are included in restaurant bills and taxi fares. Tipping is not expected, but around 10% might be given if you are pleased with the service given. In bars and cafes people will oft en leave some change.
Norwegian language
Norway has three offi cial written languages: Bokmål, Nynorsk and Sami. Bokmål is based on written Danish, which was the offi cial language in Norway for several hundred years. Nynorsk was created in the 1850s by linguist Ivar Aasen, and is a compilation and combination of some regional dialects (mainly from the Western part of the country).
Generally, if you understand Bokmål you can understand Nynorsk fairly easily, and vice versa. Offi cially, Bokmål and Nynorsk have been accorded equal status, although Bokmål is more widely used in Oslo and the larger towns.
Sami, a member of the Finno-Ugric branch of languages is a minority language used by the indigenous Sami people.
Useful words and phrases
English is widely spoken and you can manage quite well in Norway without knowing any Norwegian. However, knowing a few words and phrases may be useful.
The most important word is “takk” – “thank you”.
Hello Hei Goodbye Ha det bra
Yes Ja No Nei
Please Vær så snill Thanks (Tusen) takk You are welcome Værsågod How are you? Hvordan har

I’m fi ne Bra takk My name is… Jeg heter…

NUMBERS
FOOD AND DRINKS
If you are invited to lunch or dinner it is customary to thank the host for the meal when you leave the table. The phrase “Takk for maten” means “Thank you for the food”.
