In today’s episode we speak with Dr. Jannecke Wiers-Jenssen and Dr. Mari Elken about the new Norwegian policy initiating student fees on full-degree seeking international students from outside the European Economic Area in public higher education institutions. The policy was first heard of in the Fall of 2022 and was quickly implemented. Students beginning their degrees at Norwegian public universities began paying tuition in August, 2023.  Dr. Wiers-Jenssen is Head of Research at NIFU, the Norwegian Institute for Studies in Innovation, Research and Education, and Dr. Elken is an Associate Professor of Higher Education Studies at the University of Oslo.
