Long Courses

 

Your Chance of a New Direction...

An long course lasts from 8 to 40 weeks.
A typical stay at a folk high school lasts 4-5 months.

You can choose between almost 80 schools placed all over Denmark. Some schools are located in the cities, some are at the city boundaries and again some are found "at the back of beyond".

All the schools have something different to offer. You find schools for the intellectuals, schools for the sporty ones, for the creative, and schools covering it all.

On all of them you find the chance of trying out something new!

To get the most out of your stay it is important that you have explored the different possibilities and made sure that you will be content with the specific focus of the school and the life there.
