About the programme
Aarhus University awards a limited number of Danish state scholarships to the most academically qualified non-EU/EEA Master's applicants who are liable to pay tuition fees. Awards vary by faculty: some are full or partial tuition waivers, others include a monthly grant for living expenses, typically for the length of the degree. Applicants are assessed automatically when applying for admission and do not file a separate application. Scholarships are tied to the specific Master's programme and cannot be transferred.
