What half-year courses are there?
At Vefsn Folkehøgskole Toppen we have half-year courses in most line subjects, and it is possible to choose both autumn courses and spring course. We see a lot of people attending the first time military service in January, taking a half-year course from August to December. There are several reasons for that. Some aim to get in better shape, and others want to become better at socializing. Some also choose to take the fall course Preparing for the First Time Service, which aims for one to face the service with a head start.
How much does a half-year course cost?
Half a year at a folk high school do not have to be so expensive. The price depends on whether the course includes a study trip or not during the period. If you want to reduce costs, then you should choose a course with affordable trips. At Toppen, prices for half-year courses range between 61,000.- and 90,000,- NOK. This includes board and lodging, tuition and study trips. And you can apply for loans and scholarships in Lånekassen (for students with Norwegian citizenship) , something not everyone is aware of.
How do you apply for a half-year course?
To apply for a half-year course one can go through school website or through the public portal Folkehogskole.no. Here you will find the application form for the school. You will get the reply if you are admitted pretty fast, and maby even the same day. The Folk High Schools has an enrollment fee that you must pay to secure your place. After that, just start looking foreward to it all.
