When you apply for an exchange to a higher education institution in Switzerland, you automatically apply for a scholarship through the Swiss-European Mobility Programme. The support is usually awarded to all applicants and amounts to an amount of 380 CHF per month. This corresponds to approx. 3120 NOK per month.
