Cost of living
As a general guideline, the Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund estimates that the total monthly expenditure for students amounts to NOK 8,140 (including housing). Students must be prepared to pay at least NOK 3,200 a month for furnished student accommodation which includes electricity and heating. Costs for food, recreation and travel may vary greatly from student to student according to habits and priorities, but many students are able to bring down the cost of living considerably by cooking their own food. Examples of Norwegian prices for some common goods are:
- 1 litre milk NOK 12
- 12 eggs NOK 24
- loaf of bread NOK 15-20
- kilo cheese NOK 75
- 250 grams coffee NOK 15-20
- bottle of beer in a grocery store NOK 15-20
- pint at pub NOK 40-70
- 20 cigarettes NOK 80
- 500 grams ground beef NOK 35
