Iceland charged only a registration fee until 2026-27, but non-EEA students pay tuition from 2027-28. Norway, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands also charge non-EU students.

TNon-EU\/EEA students pay tuition for most programs, plus a small semester fee. Since 1 August 2026 universities set their own fees: several now charge roughly NOK 50,000 to 95,000 a year (Rs.5.1 lakh to Rs.9.7 lakh), while Oslo, NTNU and Bergen remain far higher.

From winter semester 2026\/27, APS India requires at least 70% in Class XII for both routes, so Germany is the most realistic choice.

It is not cost-free, since you still pay semester contributions and living costs.
