The Diploma Programme at Bjørnholt vgs requires a student to study languages, social sciences, natural sciences and mathematics over two years. Students must have already completed the first year of Norwegian videregående skole, or a similar academic preparation such as MYP 5 or GCSE’s, among other equivalencies. The IB Diploma course which is taught in English, caters to internationally mobile student applicants and internationally-minded Norwegian students interested in a secondary school education offering a more in-depth study in university preparatory subjects. 

Bjørnholt vgs has offered the IB Diploma program since 2010. We offer a highly qualified faculty dedicated to teaching IB subjects, with many years of experience within the IB Program as teachers, examiners and alumni of the IB Diploma Program.  

Please note: Acceptance into the Bjørnholt vgs IB Diploma Programme does not grant a person the right to live in Norway. Applicants must be legal residents of Oslo kommune at the time of application. If you plan to move to Oslo with your parent(s)/legal guardian before 1st of August in the same year you wish to study, please contact us for instructions on how to apply.
