The Haagaas School (Norwegian: Haagaas Artiumskursus, informally also Haagaas skole, Haagaas private gymnas or Haagaas' studentfabrikk), or simply Haagaas, was a private gymnasium in Oslo, that existed from 1915 to 1955. For most of its history, it was located in Niels Juels gate 52 at Frogner, in the same building as Frogner School, although it was briefly located in Universitetsgaten 6 in downtown Oslo during World War II. The school's founder, owner and headmaster until 1946 was Theodor Haagaas. The school was a so-called "student factory" (studentfabrikk), offering a fast track to the examen artium (university entrance exam), in the tradition of the Heltberg School of the 19th century. As of 1946, the school had 20 teachers, five classes and 127 students, and was entirely funded by tuition.
