You can go to Elverum folkehøgskole for half a year!

In the spring of 2024, we offer Africa - Aid/Culture, Photo/Experiences, Music - Band/Vocal and Snowboard/Freeski.

Many possibilities

Are you done with the first service? Have you been working for six months and want to try something new? Maybe you didn't have time to apply for a startup after the summer, but regret it?

There are many reasons for wanting to go to a folk university for six months - and there are many opportunities! Many choose this variant, and find that they are well received in a warm and social environment.

At Folkehøgskole you get good experiences and challenges. Folkehøgskole is for everyone, and the goal is personal development - starting from you, where you are when you arrive.

Elverum Folkehøgskole is open-minded, which means that students should feel that they are seen and have value regardless of religion, orientation, gender, culture, political opinion, background or disability.
