Tuition Free Universities in Europe and Some Scandinavian Countries

Many international students long to study abroad for several reasons. First, to gain experience from learning in a developed country. Second, to compete with students from all over the globe in the same classroom, and third, to exchange ideas and share knowledge.

All is not doom and gloom for international students as some countries like Norway, Finland, Sweden, Germany and Austria proffer varied types of low tuition schemes and tuition waivers that international students with a strong academic background can grasp to acquire knowledge from world class universities. However, international students whose intention is to apply to study in these countries must note that their living expenses...
