After students are accepted to the program, they are given a packet of information and forms from DIS. On-campus orientation meetings are intended to assist student with filling out the DIS forms, to prepare them for the challenges and rewards of living and studying in Denmark, and to explain health and safety issues.
The first week in Copenhagen is Orientation Week. Students will be introduced to DIS, to Copenhagen, to Denmark and to all the facets of being an international student. Also, students are given some initial Danish instruction to help them get around during the first few days and to prepare them for the regular Danish language course they will take during the academic semester. Students meet with the Academic Counselors to finalize their class schedules and receive a complete set of textbooks for their courses during Orientation Week.
Students are required to participate in all orienation activities -- on campus and in Copenhagen.
