| Comments: | A country college is a type of residential school for adults that is standard in Scandinavian countries and has also been adopted elsewhere in Europe. The concept of a country college was to provide common people with knowledge of their history, religion, and cultural heritage. There are no entrance qualifications or leaving examinations; attendance is completely voluntary. |
