No rundown students’ union here! Model’s TikTok tour of Oslo’s ultra-modern Norwegian Business School goes viral – and it’s CHEAPER to attend than an English university
- TikTok user Andrea Ludvigsen offered a tour of BI Norwegian Business School
- The Oslo campus features a stunning light-filled atrium and modern facilities
- Students can grab a drink at Starbucks and shop at a well-stocked supermarket
From its modern, light-filled atrium to the on-site supermarket packed with fresh food counters, this university looks very different to ones attended by the majority of British students.
Andrea Ludvigsen, a Norwegian model, has gone viral with her TikTok video offering a look inside the BI Norwegian Business School’s state-of-the-art Oslo campus.
In two short clips, Andrea reveals how students are able to meet for coffee in Starbucks, study in the stunning atrium with floor-to-roof windows or take an elevator up to one of the large auditoriums.

There are a number of tables in the centre of the building where students can meet to work or socialise. Viewers were struck by how modern and comfortable the school looks
One of the videos has been viewed more than 20million times and has more than 4million likes.
The lavish design prompted thousands of TikTok users to comment that it looked more like an ‘airport’ or ‘shopping mall’ than a university.
One posted: ‘You’re telling me my school can’t afford to give us toilet paper and you go to school in a mall?’
Another wrote: ‘My friends had to do Maths in a closet and you get this?’
A third added: ‘You get this and we barely have any Sharpies left.’

The BI Norwegian Business School offers undergraduate and post-graduate courses.
Fees for a three-year bachelor’s degree start at 8 590 euros or £7,747 a year.
In contrast, top English universities charge students £9,250 a year, with international students paying considerably more.
The BI Norwegian Business School is a not-for-profit foundation whose sole focus is education and research.
Any profit is funneled back into the school to ‘strengthen BI’s research and learning environment’ in accordance with the objectives of the school.
The supermarket is open, well-designed and filled with fresh food and drink options
