Welcome to the folk high school in Bergen, by fjords and mountains. With us, you will meet a diversity of young adults with different fields of interest. We have varied electives, high academic quality, social fellowship and not least, exciting study trips.
Welcome to Bergen and welcome to Åsane folkehøgskole!
We are looking forward to embarking on a new school year and hope that you would like to join us and share new experiences with us. We are a playful and social bunch of staff who want to get you on a unique school year. Here lies the opportunity for personal and professional development, new good friendships, food experiences and lots of laughter and fun.
During the school year you will have the opportunity to get to know Bergen, the city's unique charm, architecture and history, the cultural offerings and the academic communities. You can get to Bergen in 25 minutes and here you can go to the cinema, to the ADO arena, go shopping or enjoy the atmosphere at one of the many cafés.
On your course, you get to work on subjects and topics that you are interested in, and together with your classmates you get a great trip to a relevant and exciting destination. Maybe you also want to come with us to Nepal and be enthrilled by the culture, people and landscape there?
You live, sleep and eat at the folk high school.
We believe that living with your fellow students, creates an outstanding learning environment. By sharing accommodations with people who are different from you, you learn to work together and handle problems.
School life is a mix of teaching, good meals, joint activities, leisure time and boarding school life. The great thing about folk high school life is that you always have access to your fellow students. A year at Åsane folk high school can be the best year of your life.
Åsane folkehøgskole does not have any courses especially for english speaking students. Still, english speaking students are welcome to apply, as long as they have a basic understanding of Norwegian language, and also are motivated to learn Norwegian by their own efforts during the school year.
The liberal folk high schools are built on values that are not based on one particular belief. They encourage students with different interests and beliefs to apply.
