Norway is part of the Schengen area and thus certain nationalities are required to apply for a Visa. Please see the most up-to-date information from the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration and contact your local Norwegian embassy for further clarifications on this.

If you need a Visa, please request a support letter from the ACM to support your visa application.

In addition to Visa, European Union is ramping up their electronic system for travel authorisation ETIAS (similar to the US ESTA), but it will start operating in late 2026 and thus no action is required from travellers at this point on this.

Beyond Visa requirements, do check your universities’ travel recommendations in terms of exiting and entry to Schengen area and back to home. For example, US based institution might give you more detailed guidelines for you.
