Application process
How does the application process take place at Elverum Folk High School?
Send us your application
You can start applying for a school place from 1 October before the current school year. This is the same for all folk high schools.
There is no application deadline, but it is a good idea to apply early as there may be more applicants on a line than we have space for.
We have an age limit of 18 years.
In the event of large gender imbalances in the various lines, the applicant's gender may be used as a criterion.
Recording starts - offers are sent out
You will receive a response to your application from November 15th. This is common to all folk high schools. If you apply after November 15th, you will receive a response on a rolling basis.
Offers for school places will be sent to you by email and SMS.
Respond to offers of school places
We need an answer from you, and of course hope that you accept the school place. You can confirm this by email or SMS. There is a 14-day response period.
Confirmed school place
Once you have received an offer of a school place, accepted it and paid the registration fee, you are guaranteed a school place.
This year has given me an incredible amount, more than I expected to say the least. I've really grown a lot this year, it's been a steep learning curve at many different stages. What I am left with that gives me the most joy are all the strong relationships that have been formed with teachers and students.

I have done so many exciting things and challenged myself in the last year. Been to incredibly exciting places and experienced lots of different things. This year has been full of adrenaline and joy. All the new people you meet and all the things you can come up with during this year have just been absolutely fantastic.

I've had so many cool experiences at Backpacker/Ekstremsport. Everything we've done has exceeded all my expectations – especially the people. I've made great friends from many different countries 🌍
