At Fana, there is room for you to be social, explore new interests, and have fun. In a safe environment, you can be yourself, build friendships, and develop your social skills.
This is a year where you invest in both your academic and personal growth.
Get to know Bergen
As a student at Fana Folk High School, you'll experience all that Bergen has to offer. In the city, you can enjoy theater, concerts, and exhibitions. Bergen also hosts a variety of festivals. During the school year, there are international film festivals, theater festivals, and several music festivals in the city.
When you have some free time, you can explore the city on your own—hike up Fløyen, grab a coffee at one of the cozy cafés, or simply enjoy life in our vibrant city.
Creative courses and exciting electives
We offer a wide range of courses that create a diverse and creative environment at the school.
In addition to your main courses, you can choose from many electives, giving you the chance to try something new and develop new skills.
Educational and inspiring trips
We go on trips throughout the year, both within Norway and abroad. At Fana, we have school-wide trips and class-specific trips where you travel with your course group.
These study trips give you deeper academic insights and the chance to experience other cultures and environments.
Get to know norwegian language and culture
During your stay in Bergen, you'll make friends, learn some Norwegian, and explore Norwegian culture and society. We have many international students - some come to learn Norwegian, while others choose another subject.
Our language courses are designed for both beginners and those with some prior knowledge of Norwegian.
Information about language
Most of our teaching is in Norwegian, but we offer some translation to English.
Check the course descriptions, or send us an e-mail, for more information about the langugage requirements for each course. We'll be happy to answer any questions you have.
Courses at the school
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.
