5 Vanlige spørsmål - studie i utlandet: Hvor kan jeg dra?
Hvordan får jeg oppholdet godkjent? (fagvalg) Hvordan søker jeg? Hvordan skal jeg finansiere oppholdet? This presentation will cover the topics mentioned above. In short: I shall be going through the process of how to select a study abroad destination in the USA/Canda and how to get there. It is essentially A-Å on studying in the USA/Canada and intended to be used as a reference. There is a considerable amount of material in this presentation, but isn’t it better to have heard this at least once and go back and check that you haven’t forgotten something rather than missing something you were expected to find on some web page? Felles veiledning

6 HVOR kan/bør jeg dra? Informasjonskilder:
Vurdere akademisk kvalitet og dine interesser Informasjonskilder: Studieveilederen din Internasjonal seksjon(OIR) Student rapporter Utvekslingsstudenter ved NTNU Internett (e.g. google) ANSA There are a variety of sources you can use to find the institution that satifies your academic needs. Note that the sources listed above are LINKED to the appropriate web page. ACADEMIC QUESTIONS: Your academic advisor or a professor working in the field YOU are interested in can give you TIPS on where things are «happening». Check the web sites for YOUR program to see if a list of suggested institutions is already available. PRACTICAL QUESTIONS: The Office of Int’l Relations provides information on institutions NTNU has a formal agreement with and, should you be accepted for the exchange , help you with the application process. In the case of Canada/USA some information is also available on other popular destinations. STUDENT REPORTS: Been there, done that. Read these reports for information on what courses were taken, housing, expenses, etc. International students at NTNU: With over 900 International students starting at NTNU each fall, there may be one from the institution you plan on attending the following year. Get together discuss NTNU and the institution abroad. You’ll have a friend when you arrive. GOOGLE: try a google search for conferences or association/societies pertaining to or working with your field of interest. Use e.g. «conference, key words describing your interest». Who was the key note speaker? What Universities were represented at the conference? For associations: Is there a student chapter? (e.g. American Association of Mechancial Engineers=ASME) ANSA: Association for Norwegian Students Abroad has representatives on most continents

7 Tips: Lenker til hjemmesidene/ rangeringslistene
University home pages Rankings1 Universities worldwide NY !: Se Canada se også usastudier.no One of many links for programs in USA: USA You can use the links above to easily come to the home pages of universities around the world. From there you can use the search engine that is usually on the home page of most universities to find e.g.: Course catalogs (catalog/bulletin; calendar (for Canadian universities.) Application procedures (exchange/non-degree) Deadlines (deadlines) Tuition costs (tuition/fees) The key words in parenthesis are suggestions 1 HUSK! Et universitet kan være på den fremste front uten at de er på toppen av rangeringslisten.

8 Tips: Lenker til lærestedene for dvs fagfelt
NB! Litt gamle, men gir tips om noen læresteder It’s possible to «google» your way to information and find a university that suits your interests and needs. Some samples are given. There will be no more updates of these links, so try a search yourself and see what you find. Consider: CONFERENCES: Which universities were represented? Which insitution did the «keynote speaker» come from? Ex.: GOOGLE: cybernetics, conference ASSOCIATIONS Are there any academic associations that might have information on their web site about educational opportunities for students interested in a particular field/topic? Is there a student group who can help you? Ex. 1: GOOGLE: political science, association, canada Ex. 2: GOOGLE: mechanical engineering, association, American

9 ”Avtale”: hva innebærer den i Canada/USA?
Oppfølging fra IS Evt full/delvis fritak for skolepenger Avtaler: Nyttige lenker for Canada/USA bl.a. studiehåndbok, søknadsskjema, noen «sample applications», FRISTER: The details of the formal Agreements (=avtaler) that NTNU has with other educational institutions vary from institution to institution. If there is an agreement in place then the Office of International Relations, (OIR) will be able to advise you about the program available to you and assist you with application procedures. In this case the institution is called a «partner» university. An agreement does NOT always include a full/partial tuition waiver but it may. Tuition waivers in Canada/USA are typically based on a «balance» in the exchange ie whether there are an equal number of students coming from a university as there are NTNU students going to that particular university. For partner universities in Canada and the USA (as well as some other «popular» destinations you will find links for course catalogs, application procedures/forms, deadlines and in some cases «sample applications on:

10 Canada: Partner Universities: Memorial Univ. of Newfoundland
Queen’s University University of Alberta Université Laval Univ.of Waterloo (not open for AB/Architecture) Students have also gone to: British Columbia Inst of Tech. Concordia University Dalhousie University Malaspina Univ. College McGill University Simon Frasier University Univ. of British Columbia Univ. of Calgary Univ. of Lethbridge Univ. of New Brunswick Univ. du Québec a Montreal Univ. of Toronto Univ. of Victoria Univ. of Waterloo Univ. of Winnipeg Despite the fact that there are few formal agreements between NTNU and Canada NTNU students study abroad at numerous universities in Canada. There are excellent web sites to help to find out which university in Canada offers the program you are interested in. Remember one particularly good link for this purpose is: Remember to check the html table which is linked to from NTNU’s USA/Canada web page. Tuition waivers (TENTATIVE!!) Queen’s university:1-2 places (maybe) Laval – 2 places (maybe) Waterloo – 1 place (maybe) Hvor?

11 USA: Delvis Fritak for Skolepenger 2014-15 LISTEN ER MED FORBEHOLD!
Illinois Institute of Technology – Delvis fritak – “undergraduate” Michigan Technological University (sannsynligvis 1 plass ) Full Fritak St Olaf College, Northfield, MN (antall variere – full fritak) Univ. of Arkansas – Little Rock (antall variere – full fritak) UC-Berkeley (4 plasser) Master (hovedoppgave) eller Ph.D studenter Univ. of Kentucky (2 plasser medisin – full fritak) NB! Frist 1.12 Univ. of Maryland (muligens en plass for )) Univ. of Minnesota (2 plasser medisin – full fritak NB! Frist 1.12) Univ. of Minnesota Betaler “resident tuition” (ca 25 plasser ) Univ. of Minnesota (Fulbright direct exchange – 1 plass – GRADUATE – NB! Frist Søk via fulbright.no. Får også stipend for opphold!) University of Michigan – Produkt design -2 plasser? Full Fritak (University of New Orleans – Marin (antall plasser variere – mulig reduksjon i skolepenger- må sjekkes for ) University of North Dakota (mulig 2 plasser medisin + 2 plasser andre fag) Medicine (Frist 1.12) University of Oklahoma (3 plasser ) full fritak University of Washington (full fritak muligens en plass , frist 20.jan.) The number of universities in the Canada/U.S.A. offering a full tuition waiver to NTNU students is limited. The reason for this is that NTNU partner universities can often not offer a tuition waiver unless one of their students has elected to study at NTNU (ie “balance). Typically there are more Norwegian students interested in studying in the USA than there are American students interested in coming to Trondheim. In addition, each year NTNU’s partners are dealing with a variety of budgeting issues, that will affect the number of tuition waivers they can offer. Because of these factors the number of tuition waivers will vary from year to year. The above list is updated as additional information on tuition waivers becomes available.

12 NB! Ingen Avtale? Bruk søkermotoren som fins på hjemmesidene til universitetene TERMINOLOGI = «nøkkelord» Studiehåndbok = catalog/bulletin (calendar (Canada)) Skolepenger = tuition Søknadsskjema for del-studier = application form for non-degree visiting student Internasjonal seksjon = feks Office of International Relations Int’l Students and Scholars Office transcript = karakterutskrift Statement of purpose =Motivasjonsessay Letter of Recommendation=Anbefalingsbrev The application process is basically the same with or w/o an agreement. The major difference is that with an agreement NTNU’s OIR will tell you which application you need to fill out, what enclosures are required and then send the application for you. Without an agreement you will need to find out which application to send and send it before the deadline. It is a relatively straightforward process and if you use the search engine typically found at the top of the university’s home page along suggested «key words», you should find what you need. Courses: Check the catalog/bulletin/calendar = studiehåndbok Costs: Check the tuition costs for international non-residents Application form/deadline: Look for infomation for non-degree visiting students/study abroad students. Without an agreement you are NOT an exchange student. Help: Contact the International Office at the university transcript = karakterutskrift Statement of purpose = motivasjonsessay ( for tips, see link) How can I get a letter of recommendation from a professor when she/he barely knows me? (for tips, see link) REMEMBER! Useful links for universities both with and w/o an agreement are found in the html table on the Canada/USA web page

13 Hvordan får jeg permission til å ta en del av studier i utlandet
Hvordan får jeg permission til å ta en del av studier i utlandet? = Forhåndsgodkjenning 1. Sett opp en fag plan: Skap oversikt over: obligatoriske fag og valg fag se studiehåndbokene på nettet Evt snakk med studieveilederen din HUSK: De fleste forandre fagplanen etter adkomst! Varsle ditt fakultet om evt forandringer After you have decided which university you want to attend you will need to check if they have the courses you need/want and then ask your faculty for Permission to study abroad = Forhåndsgodkjenning. ASK yourself: If I attended NTNU next semester/year which required courses would I have to take (=obligatorisk fag)? Which electives (= valg fag)? In most cases you will find information on your program requirements in the NTNU course catalogs: Next find out if the university you selected offers courses which cover the material given in the required courses at NTNU. If it doesn’t you will either need to either 1) select another university or 2) see if you can «juggle» your schedule so you can take a required course at NTNU prior to your going abroad or after you’ve returned.

14 Forhåndsgodkjenning/fagplan: litt terminologi i studiehåndbøkene
Bachelor’s Grad = Undergraduate (4 år i Canada/USA) Master/PhD Grad = Graduate Lower division = første 2 år av Bachelor grad Upper Division = siste 2 år av Bachelor grad Prerequisites= forkunnskapen som trengs for å ta et fag When you begin looking at the course catalogs for universities abroad you may find some terminology you are not familiar with. You will often see the terms above ….. See the next slide for additional information.

15 Fagplan: Fagkodene (for eksempel…)
: 1. år Bachelor (= undergraduate) (NB!! 1. år Bachelor grad fag godkjennes ikke!!) : 2. år Bachelor : 3. år Bachelor : 4. år Bachelor >500: Master/PhD (=graduate) Unntak: bl.a. UC- Berkeley, San Diego og Santa Barbara 1-99: år Bachelor : år Bachelor >200: Master/PhD Vanligvis tar 4.års studenter en kombinasjon av 3./4. års undergraduate og graduate fag eller bare graduate fag. Bachelorstudenter kan i noen tilfeller ta graduate fag (sjekk forkunnskapskrav) Fakultet bestemmer hva som blir forhåndsgodkjent!! In most course catalogs in the USA/Canada, the course number gives an indication of the level of the course. Many universities use a system (or ) for undergraduate/Bachelor level courses . Courses numbered 500 or over are graduate/Master-PhD. At some popular destinations (Berkeley, UCSD, UCSB) the numbering system used is 1-99 for for 1st and 2nd year Bachelor level courses and for 3rd and 4th year courses. Courses with numbers 200 or higher are graduate/Master-PhD courses. Course numbering systems are typically explained at the beginning of the course catalog. Students studying abroad in their 4th year of a 5-yr Master’s program will often take either all graduate courses or a combination of grad courses and 3rd/4th year undergrad courses. Bachelor degree students who have the necessary prerequisites may be interested in taking a graduate course. Your faculty decides what will be approved.

16 Fagplan tip: obligatoriske fag
Lag en tabell med oversikt over obligatoriske fag Bruk gjerne engelsk beskrivelsen (se LINKS) Fin fag i utlandet som har ca. tilsvarende emner Har en kommentar felt - feks pris, +/- med stedet mm NTNU fag Emne (Fagbeskrivelse på engelsk) Fag i utlandet UC-San Diego Emne UBC Delft TMM4140 Mat.teknikk 2 material properties, plasticity, deformation- strengthening mechanisms, fatigue and fracture, by means of mechanics…. Dev’t and optimalisation of products …. … two Cases…. training in teamwork ..3 imp’t groups: aluminium, steel and stainless steel. Aim apply the theoretical models+ present practical industrial-related knowledge of these materials ?? By using a table format you can quickly see which university offers the courses you need to fulfill your requirements at NTNU. Comparing the English course description of the mandatory course at NTNU with the English course description from the course catalog of the university abroad is often easier than trying to compare the Norwegian description with the English description. If you also add columns for expenses, leisure activities etc you will have an excellent tool for helping you decide which university best matches up with what you are trying to achieve both academically and personally.

17 Forhåndsgodkjenning: Hvor mange fag må jeg ta?
OBS! Krav om full studiebelastning pr. semester Skal ta fag tilsvarende 60 studiepoeng (et år)/ 30 SP(et semester) Konverteringsnøkkelen =GNAG databasen gir oversikt over antall credits/units som tilsvarer 60 studiepoeng. One of the most frequently asked questions is «How many courses do I have to take?» In order to be entitled to funding from the State Educational Loan Fund you must take a course load that corresponds to 60 ECTS credits (=studiepoeng(SP)) for one academic year/ 30 SP for et semester. Information on how many courses are required to fulfill this requirement is found in the GNAG database:

18 Forhåndsgodkjenning:
2. Bruk skjema: Skriv ut skjemaet og lever det til fakultetet med fagbeskrivelsene NB!! Sjekk med fakultetet ditt om innleveringsfristen! (TIP!: Gjerne skrive ut 2 eks Teknologiprogrammene/5årig programmene: få din studieveilederen til å se på det først og skriv «faglig godkjent» eller noe lignende HG/SVT/evt NT: Bare ber noen på fakultetskontoret å skrive «mottatt» After you have decided where you want to study abroad, when you want to go and what courses you want/need to take, applying for permission to study abroad will take less than 30 minutes. Use the on-line application form: Input: your contact infomation, name, address, etc, study abroad destination, a list of the courses you want to take, etc PRINT OUT the application form=«forhåndsgodkjenningsskjema» Give this and a description of the courses you selected to your faculty TIP : : cut and paste the course descriptions you found on-line into a WORD/TEXT document. TIP: In order for the Canada/USA coordinator (ie Dale) to send your application she will need to see that 1) either your advisor has approved your course selection or 2) in the case of the HF/SVT and in some cases the NT faculty, that you have actually handed in the application. So, print out 2 copies of the permision to study abroad application and have it signed. Hand in one to your faculty and submit/show the other to Dale when you either hand in your application/request a «letter of permission» to study at university NTNU doesn’t have an agreement with.

19 Hvordan søker jeg til universitet i utlandet?
Avtale: søk gjennom NTNU (exchange student) Uten avtale: søk selv non-degree/visiting student (study abroad student) If you apply to one of NTNU’s partner universities the Office of Int’l Relations (OIR) will advise you about the application process and send your application. If there is no agreement between NTNU and the University you are applying to you will have to find out which application form to use, what enclosures to send, when the deadline is and then send the application. In most cases you will apply as a non-degree/visiting/special student, although in some cases you need to apply as a transfer student. If you are applying on your own, don’t panic! The application process is basically the same as with partner universities, except you have to do the work. Using the standard list of enclosures and checking if you need to send any additional materials you will find the application process quick simple. In all cases start by gathering your enclosures in a folder and then when the time comes to send the application you can just sort the enclosures and send them.

20 Søknadsprosedyren:send innen fristen
on-line (få referanse nummer) eller pdf søknad Betal søknadsgebyr (USD/CAD 0-200) Send elektronisk eller skriv ut søknaden – undertegn Send VEDLEGGENE (akademiske og for immigrasjon) As mentioned previously application routines vary from university to university, but are basically the same whether you apply through an NTNU agreement or on your own. The basic difference is who sends the application: NTNU, Office of Int’l Relations (OIR) or you. In all cases you either apply on-line and send or upload the supporting materials (= enclosures) or apply using a pdf form/word document which then, along with the enclosures, is either sent by , mail, fax or uploaded. In most cases you will have to pay a non-refundable APPLICATION fee. If NTNU has an agreement with a university, the Office of Int’l Relations (OIR) will tell you what the application procedures are and send the application. In some cases the application procedures are so well described on the university’s web site that you will just be given a link. If NTNU does NOT have an agreement with the university you are applying to you need to find out what the procedures are, apply on your and make certain you meet the application deadline. It is NOT difficult! The enclosures are basically the same no matter where you apply. The supporting materials (= enclosures) are so standard that they can be catagorized as either for 1) academic purposes or 2) for immigration purposes

21 Vanlig Vedlegg: Akademiske
Karakterutskrift på engelsk (kontakt studentservice) Oversikt over ”Courses in progress” skriv selv A4 ark: (Course code – course title – number of credits(studiepoeng)) Statement of Purpose = motivasjonsessay CV? (dersom du ha vært på flere universiteter) Anbefalingsbrev? The «Academic Enclosures» give the univeristy you are applying to an idea of your academic abilities. A description of these enclosures can be accessed through NTNU’s web page for study abroad in Canada/USA Transcript in English (sometimes you will also be asked to send the Norwegian version). List of courses in progress (These do not appear on your NTNU transcript so you need to prepare a list with course code and title. Some of these courses may be prerequisites for courses you would like to take when you are abroad and this way the university knows that you have the necessary background. A standard set-up is available on the Canada/USA web page or just make one yourself.) Statement of Purpose – Most, but not all, university’s want to know what you’re background is and why you are applying to their university. A one – max two page essay is enough. For tips see the link at the end of this presentation. CV Only a a few universities ask for a CV and typically it is for students who want to do research on the master’s/PhD level. However if you have attended several universities a CV gives a nice, concise overview of your academic history. Letters of Recommendation – usually not needed, but if so, see link at the end of the presentation or on the Canada/USA web page.

The Office of Int’l Relations can copy your passport and stamp it «certified copy». Documentation of English Proficiency For both Canada and the USA you will, in most cases, need to document your English proficiency before you can be accepted. This can be done by a standardized test (TOEFL or IELTS) or in some cases using your grade in English from upper secondary school (=v.g.s.) Alt.1: TOEFL = Test of English as a Foreign Language The Educational Testing Service (ETS) administers this test. Currently this test is given in Drammen & Moss (see toefl.org) Alt. 2: IELTS = International English Language Testing Service IELTS is administered by the British Council. Offered in Trondheim. (Note: IELTS is more expensive than TOEFL, but if you take it in Trondheim there are no travel expenses.) Alt 3: TOEFL/IELTS waiver: Some universities offer NTNU students a TOEFL/IELTS waiver. See list on next slide. Proof of sufficient financing : The State Educational Loan Fund, Norway (Lånekassen=LK) provides a preliminary statement which can be used to document your support from them. (NB! New rates each January) If the funding you receive from LK is not sufficient to cover your expenses you will need to document that you have additional funding (eg support from relatives, other stipends etc. A letter from a bank should be written on the bank’s letter head and specify the amount available.

USA - The university you applied to will send you a document stating that you are ELIGIBLE to study in the U.S.A. Consider this document to be equivalent to an acceptance letter. Not surprisingly it is called a CERTIFICATE of ELIGIBILTY. This form will either be an I-20 or DS-2019 depending on the type of visa you will be applying for. After you receive this document you must pay the SEVIS fee (USD 200,-). SEVIS= Student Exchange Visitor Information System. Once you have paid this you can make an appointment for a visa interview in Oslo. ( When you go for the interview bring as little as possible with you since you will not be allowed to take much into the embassy. Remember to bring an umbrella since you may have to wait outside on line. Early appointments are nice since you’ll be done before any delays propagate down the line… CANADA Going for less than 6 months? You’ll just need your passport. More than 6 months? Apply on-line for the study permit and then send the paperwork to London. NB!! Apply early since it can take up to 8 weeks to get the study permit.
