Important Warnings

•Scholarships are limited.
•Aarhus says usually only one or two scholarships are offered per Master’s programme.
•Not all highly qualified applicants receive scholarships.
•EU/EEA/Swiss students cannot apply for Aarhus University scholarships.
•Natural Sciences and Technical Sciences typically offer tuition waivers only.
•A tuition waiver alone may not be enough for the Danish student residence permit; proof of living funds may still be required.

•For non-EU applicants, the application fee is generally €150 / DKK 1,125 unless exempt.
Visa / Residence Permit Note
This is not visa sponsorship. Non-EU students usually need a Danish student residence permit. Aarhus says students who receive only a tuition waiver without a monthly stipend may need to document enough funds to support themselves.
Application Fee
€150 / DKK 1,125 for most non-EU/EEA/Swiss applicants, covering up to three applications at Aarhus University, unless exempt.
