Did you finish primary school this year? If you are within the scope of compulsory education and finished primary school this year, you are entitled to help and guidance in finding a place to study or other solutions. The study and career adviser at your school will assist you until the end of August, after which your municipality of residence will be responsible for guidance.

What if you haven't found your own path or a place to study yet?

You have many opportunities to study and prepare for studies throughout the year.
