Rules for classification: 1) Points; 2) Goal difference; 3) Goals scored; 4) Head-to-head points; 5) Head-to-head goal difference; 6) Head-to-head away goals scored (between two teams).[17]
(C) Champion; (O) Play-off winner; (R) Relegated.
Notes:
  1. Rosenborg qualified for the Europa League second qualifying round by winning the 2015 Norwegian Football Cup. However, since they already qualified for European competition based on their league position, the spot awarded to the cup winners was passed down the league.
  2. Lillestrøm started the season with a one point deduction due to poor financial reporting.[16]
