Exchange Pro­grammes

The Academy participates in several exchange and mobility programmes, including Erasmus+ and Nordplus. These programmes offer the opportunity for students to study at the Academy for one or two semesters while earning credits in the programme at their home institution.

As an exchange student, studying at the Academy is also possible through bilateral agreements with institutions not participating in these programmes.

If you are interested in studying at the Norwegian Academy of Music as an exchange student, please first contact the international coordinator/office at your home institution.

Semester dates at the Academy

• Autumn semester: August to December
• Spring semester: January to June

Visiting students can apply to the Academy for either the autumn term, the spring term or the whole academic year.

Application deadline

The application deadline for all exchange programmes: 1 March. Please start the application process before 1 March, as the student and the sending institution need to complete several steps before the application can be finally submitted.

The application portal opens 1 February.
The application system is completely new for NMH this year. If you encounter any difficulties during the process, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us via e-mail.

The application deadline applies to both the autumn and the spring terms of the following academic year.

Admissions decisions will be communicated in April.

Foreign students applying for admission to a full programme at NMH should consult the information provided about language requirements, application procedures, funding options and services for international students.
