The IB Diploma, with English, meets the entry requirement; Norwegian is not required for either game degree. With a Nordic school background you apply through Samordna opptak.

Worth knowing

The two game degrees share projects every semester, so artists and programmers build games together.

All 3 notes
  • The two game degrees share projects every semester, so artists and programmers build games together.
  • INN's Philosophy, Politics and Economics bachelor in Lillehammer is taught in Norwegian, not English.
  • INN sends applicants 'with upper secondary education from the Nordic countries' to Samordna opptak, and an IB from a school in Denmark is upper secondary education in a Nordic country.
