Located in the northern Oslo suburb of Kjelsås, Rønningen Folkehøgskole serves as the ISS’s summer accommodations. The private student campus is a roughly 30-minute commute via public transport from the University of Oslo’s Blindern campus and stands on the doorstep to Oslo’s famous Nordmarka forest. Its facilities are recently modernized, and its location on a mountain slope overlooking Oslo provides a picturesque view of the city.

Rønningen is a substance-free campus.
