<p>Hi!
Does anyone know of any universities up north (northern Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, etc.) that are english-speaking/ have bachelors programs in English?
Thanks so much!</p>
<p>There are five University of Alaska campuses and two religious Christian colleges (one non-denominational, one Methodist) in Alaska.</p>
<p>There appear to be no universities in Canada’s three northern territories, though there are a few colleges (which in Canada refers to schools more like community colleges in the US).</p>
<p>Why do you want them to be in the far north?</p>
<p>The Canadian territories dont have any universities, mainly because very few people live there. There are a few universities in the northern areas of several provinces. Off th top of my head I can think of the University of Northern British Columbia (BC), University College of the North (Manitoba) and Athabaska university (Alberta).</p>
<p>Bring a parka!</p>
<p>For Finland, Sweden, and Norway you can Google to find a list of colleges, then go look at the website and see if you can find a section for visiting students in English. University of Helsinki offers some courses in English, but I think it may be difficult to get a visa for the length of time it would take to complete a degree. I suspect that may be true for other universities in Sweden, Norway, etc.</p>
<p>What about colleges farther north in the US? Michigan Tech, Northern Michigan, Bemidji State, and University of Minnesota - Duluth come to mind.</p>
<p>There’s also Maine–Presque Isle. Dont forget the Canadian provinces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. There’s also Newfoundland and Labrador.</p>
<p>I also feel like University of Vermont is definitely a northern-type experience. :)</p>
<p>If you are counting universities in the northern contiguous states as “northern” then you can toss in most of the top Canadian universities, such as UofToronto and McGill which have stronger reputations then any other universities posted on this thread. Of the two McGill in Montreal is colder and more northern, so I dunno if that gives it an edge for you. There are also a ton of American students there because it is somehow seen as “exotic”.</p>
