KHiB-kantina er endeleg open
Onsdag 1. september klokka 9:30 opna den nye kantina i Marken 37 med kaffe og kake til alle. Det er Studentsamskipnaden i Bergen som skal drive kantina. I byrjinga vil ho ha eit ganske enkelt utval og mat og drikke, påsmurte baguetter og rundstykke, yoghurt og frukt, men SiB lover å utvide utvalet etterkvart.
- Kom gjerne med innspel på kva mat de ønskjer, seier Britt Marie Waagen som skal drive kantina. Alle studentar og tilsette oppfordrast til å prøve ut den nye KHiB-kantina!

About Bergen National Academy of the Arts (KHiB)
Bergen National Academy of the Arts (KHiB) is one of the two independent institutions of higher learning in the visual arts and design in Norway. Read more about our objectives and formal structure.
Expenses
Completing a university degree is often considered to be an expensive endeavour and tuition fees are usually making up the bulk part of the cost. Norwegian universities, state university colleges and art academies as a rule do not charge tuition fees for international students. However, you should take into consideration that living expenses in Norway are higher than in many other countries.
