    Other useful packing tips:

    • Remember that you can collect things at home already during the autumn holidays if you are going home then. There is often not much storage space in the room, so it may be a good idea not to bring everything you need for the whole year at once.
    • We have good discount agreements with several local shops, e.g. on training clothes and equipment. If you're missing something, we'll help you get it when you get to school.
    • Det er også mulig å låne utstyr på BUA Verdal 
    • When it comes to clothes, pack what you feel comfortable wearing. There is no dress code at a folk college!
