If you plan to move to Norway with spouses or other family members, please make sure that you are well-prepared ahead of your arrival in Norway. You need to consider the following:
- Funding
- Housing with space enough for family members
- Applying for visas for family members
- Police registration for family members
- Insurance for family members
Please note that it is your own responsibility to prepare for taking your family members with you. USN has no responsibility nor capacity for organising family visas, police registration, housing, schools or kindergartens to accommodate family members.
The SSN - student welfare services - only has a few apartments in each campus that are accommodated for couples. These are in high demand. Family units are even more scarce. These are for small families (1 - 2 rooms) and located at campus Porsgrunn and Vestfold only. Please contact the SSN directly for more questions.
