What is your next step?
Ranum Efterskole College collaborates with several international schools that might be your next step in your international education.
Hasseris Gymnasium
"The International Baccalaureate Diploma is a challenging upper secondary education offered at Hasseris Gymnasium and IB World School. If you want an education with high academic standards, an ambitious curriculum and an emphasis on international understanding, intercultural respect and critical thinking, an IB Diploma is probably what you are looking for."
Struer Statsgymnasium
"Struer Statsgymnasium would like to be known as a challenging and stimulating high school with the central ambition that students should learn more than they think they would ever need in life.
Our aim is to be a unique regional offer with a wide range of youth educations in an international campus environment. Struer Statsgymnasium and boarding school must be the natural choice for the local youth and an interesting offer for international students, the core task being every single student's education, learning and cultural formation.
We aim to prepare students for higher education and for our students to become compassionate, brave, and curious citizens of the 21st century. We want our students to become the entrepreneurs of tomorrow, to become active citizens, and to become competent professionals and problem solvers. We will solve this task through the broad educational offer ranging from our Danish national curriculum programmes to our International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme by virtue of a dynamic and open learning environment and through various collaborations, locally, nationally, and internationally."
Viborg Cathedral School
"The programme is recognised world-wide and opens the doors to universities and other institutions of further education. The programme is offered in more than 5500 schools in more than 159 countries (2021), and the exam (the Diploma) is recognised around the world as a qualifying examination for numerous institutions of further education worldwide.
It is an academically challenging and well-balanced education, where the students work in depth across a variety of subjects. The reputation and quality of the programme is based on rigorous external assessment and a strong focus on the development of the whole student, intellectually, ethically, physically, and emotionally. "
The Harvey School
"Our international students are an integral part of our student body, participating in the same academic courses, after-school activities, clubs, athletics, and student leadership opportunities as do all Harvey students.
The Harvey School encourages English-proficient students in grades 9-12 from all over the world to consider joining our thriving student body. Currently, we have international students from eight countries attending Harvey Upper School.
As we do not offer traditional ESL instruction, we offer all entering international students an English reading/writing workshop during their first and second enrolled year."

Ranum Efterskole allowed me to evolve socially and learn things about myself that I would have never learned, if I had stayed in the States. I met some of my closest friends in Ranum and got the chance to explore a culture different than mine. My credits transferred back to my New York high school and I think it prepared me for living independently at college. I would recommend it to anyone because my time there definitely shaped who I am today for the better!
My year at Ranum Efterskole was truly a once in a lifetime experience and has greatly impacted who I am today. I discovered so much about me and my passions during my year there. I made friendships that will last a lifetime and I gained confidence in myself and my abilities. I stayed in Denmark after Ranum and completed my IB Diploma and became fluent in Danish. I am now studying my Bachelor Degrees in Foreign Languages and Business Administration here in Denmark.
Ranum Efterskole gave me a new perspective on how learning can be approached. I realised that learning did not have to be just doing what you were told, instead we were encouraged to think outside of the box, and to put emphasis on the process. I completed high school in Canada after Ranum, although being half a globe away, I held onto the Danish values of freedom, equality, and sense of community, several elements that were important at Ranum. I also brought with me the same attitude of learning while doing activities that I enjoy. I met tons of friends from different countries in Canada, and it reminded me of how student from all over the world became one at Ranum. I am now in Europe and I am studying media and film in Budapest.

Cambridge IGCSE - Your ticket to a world of opportunities
Cambridge IGCSE at Ranum Efterskole College bridges the gap between classical efterskole life and a recognised international curriculum. Many students emphasise how the course not only strengthens their English language skills, but also teaches them to think critically and independently. They say that it has given them a solid stepping stone for further education because the IGCSE qualification is respected worldwide. Students also describe how they have gained a stronger network and a global outlook for the future, thanks in part to the international contacts and cultural experiences offered by Ranum Efterskole College.
