The school has two dormitories, both directly connected to the school. One in Tegelhuset, divided into two floors, and one in Stenhuset.
In the first place, we fill up the dormitory in Tegelhuset.

The rooms are equipped with a bed, bedside table, table with chair and wardrobe. The shower and toilet are either in the room or so that two rooms share.
The kitchen is shared by several rooms and has a stove/oven, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee and tea maker.
Connected to the kitchen is a living room with a TV. There is a communal kitchen on all dormitories.

At the school, breakfast, lunch, coffee and dinner are served on weekdays, on weekends the students take care of their own meals.

Accommodation is mainly arranged in double rooms. Single rooms are arranged if possible.

In Tegelhuset’s dormitory there will also be dogs due to the study program Dog consultant. In the first place, we place the dogs on the first floor.
We kindly ask that you to inform us about allergies so that we can arrange a room in another dormitory.
