Frequently asked questions
How much does the NHH MSc cost?
For EEA, EU, and Swiss students, tuition is entirely free — only a semester registration fee of approximately NOK 910 applies per semester. Non-EEA students pay NOK 204,000 per year, totalling NOK 408,000 for the full two-year programme. NHH does not publish merit scholarships for international non-EEA students at the MSc level, so the published fee is the operative figure for those applicants.
Where does NHH rank for the Master in Management?
NHH placed 83rd worldwide in the Financial Times Masters in Management 2025, with a weighted three-year salary of approximately US $77,000 and a 93% employment rate at three months. As Norway's only ranked business school on the FT MiM table, NHH holds a singular position in the Nordic landscape.
What salary can NHH MSc graduates expect?
The Financial Times 2025 ranking reports a weighted three-year salary of approximately US $77,000 — a standardised cross-school metric measuring earnings three years after graduation. NHH does not publish its own salary figure for the MSc; the school reports that spring 2025 graduates achieved a record high employment rate, with 96% in relevant employment, but does not release a specific salary number. The FT figure is the primary benchmark available.
