Welcome to NHHS and Welcome Week 2022!
Dear new student – welcome to the best Welcome Week in Norway!
This week marks the start of your time at NHH, and we hope you want to join! Welcome Week will consist of a number of events that are arranged for you to get to know your fellow students, the city, the school, the student association and all the fun we have to offer further in the course of study. Every day is filled with fun activities, and you will have mentors who guide you throughout the week. The week is created to give you a good start to your study time. Maybe you get to know your new best friend or your future spouse; from experience, nothing can be ruled out.
During the week you have the opportunity to participate in a number of different events. We arrange pub-to-pub, parties, bus guiding and much more. Welcome Week is guaranteed to be an eventful and fun week, and there is something for everyone, both with and without alcohol.
We look forward to meeting you!
Keep me up to date!

Mentor groups
All new students who join Welcome Week are assigned a mentor group. The group will consist of mentees and dedicated mentors. The mentors’ task is to make sure that you feel comfortable, and they will go in easily recognizable white t-shirts throughout the week. They will also arrange a mentor pre-game before the events, give you a tour of the school and provide a lot of useful information about student life at NHH. Use your mentors actively – they are sitting on a goldmine of knowledge about NHH and NHHS.
Zero tolerance
The environment at NHH and in NHHS shall be experienced as safe for all the school’s students. That is why we have zero tolerance for drugs and harassment. In the event of violations, the consequences will be exclusion from NHHS and a police report. If you need help or experience a breach of this, you can click on NHH’s website for notification routines. Feel free to also contact president of the Executive Board at leder@nhhs.no or call +47 478 64 566.
Daghavende
Every day during the Welcome Week, there will be several people from the Welcome Week Committee on duty 24 hours a day, this is called the “Daghavende”. “Daghavende” is responsible for ensuring that what happens is done correctly and responsibly, whether it is at school or elsewhere where there are events for new students under the auspices of NHHS.
“Daghavende” is dressed easily recognizable with a dark blue t-shirt with “DAGHAVENDE” in large white letters on both back and chest. They will at all times wear the “Daghavende”-phone, which is staffed 24 hours a day. If you have questions or something you want to inform us about, let the “Daghavende” know. “Daghavende” can be reached by phone at 451 86 050. The number is also on all FKU wristlets.
NHH – Kjøp og Salg
The Facebook page “NHH – Kjøp og Salg” (NHH – Buy and Sell) is a closed page for students affiliated with NHH. Here you can buy and sell school books, concert tickets, furniture, find an apartment and lots more. The purchase and sale of alcohol and tobacco is not permitted on this site.
NHH – Glemt og mistet
Have you forgotten something in the hall or after a party? Do not despair – your fellow students may have found your things! Join the Facebook group “NHH – Glemt og mistet” (NHH – Lost and found) and post if you have lost something, or if you find something others have lost.
Mentorordningen
“Mentorordningen NHHS” is a scheme that aims to inform and assist, as well as create security for new students who wonder what awaits them at the start of their studies, during the Welcome Week, and throughout the semester.
“Mentorordningen” is managed by NHH students with different experience who can answer all the questions you as a new student may have. During the summer, all new students will be contacted by their mentor (not the same as the ones you are going to spend Welcome Week with), who from then and throughout the year will be available to answer questions about whatever it may be. If you have questions about NHHS, subjects or just want to talk to a student with more experience about NHH – do not hesitate to get in touch!
This year we will also use Snapmentor, which you will definitely get to know in several of your subjects. Here you can go in and ask questions anonymously. You may also find answers to your questions in the knowledge bank. All students will receive an email from “Mentorordningen” with a link to Snapmentor, and here you log in with your Feide user.
If you have not been contacted by a mentor or have questions already now, just send an email to mentorordning@nhhs.no, and we will help you!
Feel free to like NHHS Mentorordningen on Facebook to stay up to date on useful links, FAQs, tips and tricks etc.
