Norwegian School of Leadership and Theology

The Norwegian School of Leadership and Theology (Høyskolen for Ledelse og Teologi, HLT) is a theological seminary at Stabekk in Bærum, Norway. It is jointly owned by the Baptist Union of Norway and Filadelfia Oslo, a Pentecostal congregation.

The school has its origins in the Norwegian Baptist Seminary, founded in 1910. The college was established in 2008 as a merger between the Norwegian Baptist Seminary and the Pentecostal Center for Leadership and Theology. It took over the accreditation of the Baptist seminary as well as its premises.

HLT offers a bachelor's degree in theology and a one-year programme in Christianity, accredited by the Norwegian Agency for Quality Assurance in Education (NOKUT).

The Study in Norway list (HK-dir) shows one English-taught degree programme here, at bachelor's level, in theology. NOKUT's institutional category is university college / university of applied sciences, and the DBH institution register lists it as a private høyskole with code 8248, owner Kunnskapsdepartementet, postcode 1368.

For an international student, applications go through the institution's own system. Students from outside the EU/EEA normally need a study permit from UDI. EU/EEA and Swiss students are normally exempt from tuition at state institutions, and other degree students pay an institutional fee.
