Bergen publishes the window as a standing annual one: the portal opens on 1 November and the deadline is 1 December, with a final documentation deadline of 15 December. Its own page still carried the previous cycle's year when this was checked on 9 September 2026, so the next occurrence of the published window is recorded here. One master's programme per applicant, no changes after the deadline. Student housing applications close separately on 15 May, and the Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design runs its own dates.
