Get rid of your winter blues and start planning for a once-in-a-lifetime summer studying abroad in Norway at the American College of Norway! Trust us, you won’t regret it! “The American College of Norway offered me so much more than a study abroad experience. The faculty and staff are some of the nicest people I have ever met, the course load isn’t overbearing, and the apartments are super cute. Moss is also a friendly and inviting city with lots to do. There are great hiking trails, the beach and the Oslo Fjord, plus there are great restaurants and cafes. Additionally, Oslo is only a 40 minute train ride away, so there is always something to do.” -Lexy Zimmerman, ACN Summer School Student 2018

Every October, we transform our hallowed halls into a horrifying haunted house, and this year was no exception! This year, nearly 300 people came through our doors… some had to even leave early! We definitely put on an authentic American haunted house, that’s for sure. Read more about this year’s urban legends themed haunted house. There is even a video of the haunted house at the end of the blog!

First semester is almost over, but don’t worry, there are a lot of fun events planned for you before break including a Christmas party and the Nobel Peace Prize Interview!

ACN has organized a travel course to Svalbard the past two years and this year was no exception. With great interest and tremendous success the past two trips, another Arctic expedition was planned! This year, 16 students spent an unforgettable week exploring Norway’s northernmost territory with Dr. John Ross. Current ACN student and intern, Monique Østbye reflects on the unforgettable trip in our latest blog post.

November is another busy month at ACN! This month we will have partner school information sessions from West Chester University, Adelphi University and Southern New Hampshire University. We will also be hosting our annual all-school Thanksgiving dinner! Check the calendar for all activities and important dates this month. We look forward to getting into the Thanksgiving spirit with all of you this month!

This year’s Homecoming Week 2018 was a huge success thanks in part to ACN’s Activities Committee. This dedicated committee of students came together to plan an unforgettable and eventful Homecoming Week that was full of fun dress up days, delicious snacks and a magical themed Homecoming Dance.
