We are looking forward to welcoming you at school on Monday 12 August 2024 at 10:00am.
On this page, we have gathered important information for you regarding the first period in school.
We are looking forward to welcoming you!
If you will be staying at the boarding school, you can find further information below.

The first day of school is over.
THE INTRO PERIOD
During the first few weeks, we have planned a special introductory programme for you and your new classmates, so you will get to know each other and find your way around the school.
During the first week, you will receive your books. Nyborg Gymnasium has online access to Gyldendal’s dictionaries, but if you need dictionaries that translate to other languages than Danish, you need to acquire your own.
Furthermore, you will receive a free version of the Microsoft Office package, so you do not need to buy it yourself. We expect you to bring a laptop to school.
At the beginning of your Pre-IB-programme, you need to purchase a graphical display calculator. We strongly suggest that you buy a TI-84 Plus CE-T calculator, since these models are used by our mathematics teachers in the classes, and are approved for the exams by the IB.
At the start of the school year, you will receive more information about the school rules and regulations, as well as other practical information to make you feel at home at Nyborg Gymnasium.
Participation in the intro period is compulsory.
INFORMATION MEETING FOR PARENTS
Both Pre-IB and IB parents have the possibility of attending a virtual introductory meeting with the IB and Deputy IB Coordinators. The meeting will take place within the 2nd or 3rd week of the school year. More information will follow at the beginning of the school year.
DECLARATION OF CONSENT
As Nyborg Gymnasium is responsible for the protection of data, we must inform you that personal data about you will be processed as part of your schooling.
Here you can find information about which personal data the school always processes, and which personal data the school needs your consent to process.
It is important that you read this information carefully. Furthermore, you must complete a declaration of consent.
Students with MitID can complete the declaration via gymbetaling.dk.
Foreign students, without MitID, should contact the school administration.
The declaration of consent must be completed by students no later than Friday 30 August 2024.
COMMUNICATION
We correspond with students via digital post.
Once you have your MitID and access to your digital postbox, it is important that you log into it and state your mobile number so you receive a text message whenever there is a letter in your digital postbox.
If you do not have MitID you can activate it here.
STUDY TRIP
Remember that you are going on a study trip in the autumn of 3i, which is the final IB year. You should expect a cost of approx. DDK 5,000 for this.
DANISH NATIONAL STUDENT GRANT (SU)
Three months after you have turned 18, you may be eligible to apply for the Danish National Student Grand (SU). You apply for this grant on su.dk. To create a web-account at su.dk, you need your MitID which you can activate here. It takes a while to receive the code, so order it well in advance to make sure you will receive your SU on time. You cannot apply for SU more than one month in advance.
Should you have any questions regarding SU, please contact the school administration.
TRANSPORTATION
You can use both bus and train when commuting to Nyborg Gymnasium. As a student at the school, you have the possibility of getting a discount, when applying for the public transportation pass called the Ungdomskort.
Note that it takes up to two weeks to have your Ungdomskort delivered, so you need to order it well in advance.
You can order your Ungdomskort from Saturday 8 June on ungdomskort.dk, and you need the following to get started:
- An e-mail account that you regularly check
- Your own MitID
- A valid credit card
There are 2 steps when ordering:
Step 1: Apply for approval.
Step 2: Once approved, order and pay.
If you live in a boarding school, you are entitled to a Ungdomskort for transport between the boarding school and the gymnasium. You are not entitled to a Ungdomskort for travel to and from your parents' address (your registered address). You must enter the boarding school's address as your residence in self-service step 1 and inform the school so they can approve the address. The agency monitors travel routes when you live in a boarding school. The agency may suspend your automatic approval, requiring you to apply manually if you provide incorrect information in your application. Learn more about the Youth Card for boarding school students here: (Note: site available from 1/7) www.ungdomskort.dk/13424
