Verification form

Important information: It is a very good idea that applicants with non-Danish entry qualifications fill in a verification form to verify the hours of instruction of the subjects needed for the study programme obtained during the final three years of upper secondary school as well as last received grade. To be accepted, the verification form must be stamped and signed by your previous school.
