Below is an excerpt of an article called:
Can Norway Maintain Free Education for All?
The tuition-free policy draws thousands of foreign students to Norway each year: nearly 16,500 last year, up 27 percent from about 13,000 in 2008. That includes "nearly 2,000 Russians, 699 Chinese students and 376 Iranian nationals," as well as "several hundred students" from Ethiopia, Ghana, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and the United States. And, after Sweden began charging international students this year—the equivalent of $20,700 annually—that country saw an 85 percent drop in non-EU student applications, while the University of Oslo saw a 60 percent increase.
Why offer a free college education to non-EU students in the first place? Europe's population is declining, so if international scholars decide to stick around Norway after graduation, they contribute to the local tax base. And even if an international student ends up going back to her homeland, she'll likely remember Norway's generosity when she holds a position of influence. source: http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/WK-AL111_jp3FIN_20080228192121.jpg
Lloyd Kirby, superintendent of Colon Community Schools in southern Michigan, says foreign students are told to ask for extra work if they find classes too easy. He says he is trying to make his schools more rigorous by asking parents to demand more from their children.
Despite the apparent simplicity of Finnish education, it would be tough to replicate in the U.S. With a largely homogeneous population, teachers have few students who don't speak Finnish. In the U.S., about 8% of students are learning English, according to the Education Department. There are fewer disparities in education and income levels among Finns. Finland separates students for the last three years of high school based on grades; 53% go to high school and the rest enter vocational school. (All 15-year-old students took the PISA test.) Finland has a high-school dropout rate of about 4% -- or 10% at vocational schools -- compared with roughly 25% in the U.S., according to their respective education departments. Another difference is financial. Each school year, the U.S. spends an average of $8,700 per student, while the Finns spend $7,500. Finland's high-tax government provides roughly equal per-pupil funding, unlike the disparities between Beverly Hills public schools, for example, and schools in poorer districts. The gap between Finland's best- and worst-performing schools was the smallest of any country in the PISA testing. The U.S. ranks about average.
