WHAT IS FADDERULLAN?
Fadderullan is the name given to the Buddy Week at BI Norwegian Business School, and is arranged in collaboration with BISO – The BI Student Organization.
After merging its four campuses; Bergen, Trondheim, Stavanger and Oslo together, the concept was created and founded in 2005. Since the beginning, Fadderullan has grown to become Norway's biggest student-driven event, with over 4000 participants each year - in Oslo alone.
Even though all of BI's campuses are collectively under one brand, each campus is responsible, and has its own independent management, to create new ideas to suit their student body.
The main board for Fadderullan is located in Oslo, and in 2020 a closer partnership was established to strengthen the brand even more. The hope is each campus can create magical moments for everyone.
The Fadderullan Board and Ambassador's will do the very best to make sure you are taken care of and get to know your fellow students. We looking forward to seeing you!
