Application and 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 advisable to apply early as there may be more applicants on a line than we have room for. Complete applications with attachments and certificates are considered first. In the event of large gender biases on the various lines, the applicant's gender can be used as a criterion. We have an 18 year age limit.
Recording starts - offers are sent out
You will receive a response to your application from 15 November. This is common to all folk colleges. If you are applying after 15 November, please answer continuously.
Pupils from countries outside the EU/EEA and from Denmark are admitted continuously from 1 October.
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.
