Creative writing courses in the Nordics

Courses ranging from evening classes and short, focussed courses to full-time university programmes reflect a broad interest in studying creative writing in the Nordic countries.

Interest in creative writing has grown rapidly in the Nordic countries since 2000, and today a large selection of courses are available. Several universities offer two-year, full-time courses in advanced creative writing, and some folk high schools offer reputable one-year courses. At a less intensive level, there is a large number of public and private institutions which offer part-time courses in creative writing in the evenings, at weekends or during the summer. These courses usually specialise in specific genres, e.g. poetry or short stories, and are sometimes aimed at particular sectors of the general public, e.g. teenagers or the partially sighted.

Generally speaking, students on short courses participate with the sole intention of learning to express themselves more effectively. Students taking university courses, on the other hand, often become professional writers. Full-time programmes give these students the opportunity to practise their art, and are in this respect similar to the established tradition among students of music, theatre and the visual arts.

Litterär gestaltning , at Gothenburg University, Sweden, and Forfatterskolen in Copenhagen are two of Scandinavia’s most prestigious creative writing courses, where some of the students have been published before starting and well-known authors are among their lecturers. Lund University, Sweden, offers a Master’s degree in creative writing. Forfatterstudiet in Bø, Norway, offers a one-year course. Aschehoug, one of the largest publishing houses in Norway, have their own writing school, although some critics have expressed concern that these students may be trained in a style designed to suit Aschehoug’s particular publishing ethos. In Finland, Työväen Akatemia (Worker’s Academy) offers a one-year course in collaboration with Oxford’s Ruskin College, and Åbo Akademi University offers a two-year course.

Publishing houses report that the booming interest in creative writing has increased the number of scripts they are receiving and the quality of writing generally.

Second Admission Round / Nationell ansökningsomgång

Lund, halvfart In Swedish 2 September 2024 – 8 June 2025

Öppnar eventuellt för sen anmälan den 15 July 2024

Lund University uses a national application system run by University Admissions in Sweden. It is only possible to apply during the application periods: October–January for autumn semester and June–August for spring semester.

Extended application deadline

Sometimes the application deadline is extended for a specific programme or course. In these cases you will find the message "open for late application" by the programme/course information on universityadmissions.se . You apply with the usual application steps. As long as this message is showing, it is possible to apply, but late applications are processed in order of date, so it is still important to apply as soon as possible. Please note that if the programme/course does not have an extended deadline, it is not possible to apply late.

First or Second Admission Round?

All international students are encouraged to apply to the First admission round. This round takes place many months before the start of a semester and gives students the time they need to pay their tuition fees, apply for and receive their residence permit (if required), find housing, etc.

The Second admission round is an alternative for students from EU/EEA countries as they do not need a residence permit. Non-EU/EEA students will most likely not have enough time to obtain their permit before the start of the semester. However, even EU/EEA students are advised to apply during the First admission round, as some programmes can be applied for only in the January round. Also, this provides applicants with an admission decision much earlier, which is helpful in making decisions about their studies.
