Norwegian test level A1 til C1
The Norwegian test is an important test. Vital things such as permanent residence and admission to educational programs can take place after you have passed the Norwegian test. We help you prepare for the Norwegian test so that you can reach your goals.
When you take the Norwegian test, you choose which level you want to take. The levels are:
- A1-A2
- A2-B1
- B1-B2
- C1
You must pass level B2 on all subtests (reading, listening, written and oral) to be able to enter a college or a university in Norway.
In addition, some jobs require that you have a certain language level to be able to apply for a job.
You can also obtain a permanent residence permit in Norway if you have taken the hours required by the UDI for you and your basis for residence, or if you have passed the Norwegian test at level A2 on all sub-tests (reading, listening, written and oral).
How to take the Norwegian test
You can take the Norwegian test four times a year (in September, the turn of the month November / December, March, and the turn of the month May / June). The Norwegian test consists of a written and an oral exam. Writing has three subtests: a reading, a listening, and a writing test.
You register for the Norwegian test at Kompetanse Norge. The test is held at a municipal adult education location, and you must physically attend. If you do not pass the test, you must wait until the next time the test is held and take it again.
