More Folk College (Møre Folkehøgskule)
From the Sunnmøre Alps out into the world
One year. New people. Big experiences. Make Sunnmøre and the Sunnmøre Alps your playground, and join a school with more than 25 years of experience in Asia. Experience China, Japan, Thailand or Bali. A year full of friendship, achievement and memories for life.
Experience more. Share more. Become more.
Seven courses. The Sunnmøre Alps. The world.
At Møre you get more than a year at school: the Sunnmøre Alps right outside the door, strong communities and experiences far beyond Norway.
Choose a full year, or just the autumn or spring semester. Every course has a long study trip in February/March, as part of the spring semester. In November, the whole school travels somewhere warm together. All study trips are included in the course price.
Swap your everyday routine for new cultures, new friends and big adventures, and come home with more than photos on your phone.
At Møre folkehøgskule, travel is part of the school year, and the study trips are included in the course price.
Shared school trip: Every October–November, the whole school travels together to a warmer country for one week. Students from all courses get to know each other across classes, and the trip is an important part of building one community. All full-year and autumn students join this trip.
Course study trip: In February–March, each course goes on its own long study trip of 3–4 weeks to Asia, to Bali, Thailand, Japan or China. This trip is for full-year and spring students.
We travel with purpose. Students help plan the trips, and we learn about the places we visit, meet local people and reflect on how tourism affects local communities and the environment.

Sol, samhold og saltvann – ei uke du aldri glemmer
Når høsten senker seg over Sunnmørsalpane, gjør vi det eneste riktige: vi reiser sørover! Hele Møre folkehøgskule tar turen til varmen – kanskje til Italia, kanskje til en av Kanariøyene – for ei uke med sol, fellesskap og ny energi. I 2026 går turen til Fuerteventura. Reisemål for 2027 blir bestemt rett etter nyttår!
Se for deg å starte dagen barbeint i sanden, med lyden av bølger i bakgrunnen. Noen hiver seg på surfekurs, andre chiller på stranda eller blir med på tur til lokale markeder og små fjellandsbyer. Om kvelden samles vi til god mat, latter og historier – og du blir kjent med folk fra andre linjer på en helt ny måte.
Dette er uka der skuldrene senkes, sola tar tak i smilet ditt, og du får puste litt ekstra før vinteren. Du drar hjem med varme i kroppen, nye venner og minner som varer lenge etter at brunfargen har forsvunnet.
Felles "bli kjent tur" på høsten– sol, samhold og smil.
– Fordi folkehøgskolelivet handler om å oppleve litt mer.
Mandatory: Yes
Price: Included in course price
Vi har flere studieturer i Norge! Og da drar vi dit det er best forhold for sykkel, snø og surf! Feks til fuglefjellet og fyret på Runde, Hoddevika for surfing og Stranda eller Bjorli for å stå på ski!
All students must be 18 years or more .
Most students share a double room with someone of the same gender from a different course. It’s a great way to get to know new people, and sharing a room often leads to friendships that last well beyond the school year. Each room has a bed, desk and wardrobe for each student. Most rooms share bathrooms in the corridor. Please bring your own bed linen and towels.
Single rooms are available when we have capacity, for an extra NOK 1,000 per month. If you need a single room for health reasons, let us know when you apply.
The boarding houses are on campus, close to the dining hall and the rest of the school.
Møre folkehøgskule is located in the centre of Ørsta, a small town on the west coast of Norway, between the fjords and the Sunnmøre Alps.
By air: Fly to Ørsta-Volda Airport, Hovden (HOV), with direct Widerøe flights from Oslo and Bergen (about 1 hour 10 minutes).
