👋 Drop by or send a message
You can contact the advisor/coordinator for student relations by sending a message via the contact button or by stopping by the office. The advisor/coordinator is often out on campus on assignment, so you may encounter a closed door, but try again later.
At Campus Kongsberg you can meet Siri, who has her office in Norli Akademisk (the bookstore) next to Krona.

Easily available help and support
Do you have any questions? Do you need someone to talk to about small or big things in life? Do you need help finding an association or something else to join? Is there something going on in the flat share you live in?
On campus, you can meet an easily accessible counsellor/coordinator who you can talk to about these things and much more. In short, most things that concern you as a student - in your life outside your studies.
If you are already involved in student volunteering, you can also get help and support with student association work. If you want to get in touch with the associations on your campus, the student relations advisor/coordinator is also the person to talk to!
Urgent need for help?
International students may use GP services in the host municipality. Read more about GP on Helsenorge.
How to get an appointment?
International students can get an appointment with the GP in one of three ways:
By contacting a GP in the city and asking for an appointment.
By contact the municipality, who will help you to find a GP who can offer a consultation.
If urgent medical attention is required: Contact the emergency care unit (116 117) or call 113 if it is critical.
Students from EU/EEA countries or Switzerland:
Students from an EU/EEA country or Switzerland are entitled to necessary medical attention at treatment locations associated with the public health service. Upon presentation of a European Health Insurance Card you will be charged the same amount as Norwegians pay for the same health service.
Students from countries outside the EU/EEA:
Students from countries outside the EU/EEA are not entitled to coverage for costs of medical treatment from the Norwegian National Insurance scheme and are not entitled to get their medical expences compensated. Students in this category must pay the excess/fee when using GP services in accordance with the standard tariff for patients not covered by the National Insurance scheme for each appointment/consultation.
Additional services such as taking blood samples or other medical procedures/tests are not included in this example. Students from outside the EU/EEA must pay the full cost of GP visits and seek a refund from their private travel insurance policy.
🦠 You can get tested for sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea at your GP or at the youth health centre in Kongsberg. Testing is free of charge.
🍆 Free condoms are available on campus (at SSN's office), or you can order free condoms yourself.
