Cost

Non-EU tuition is DKK 45,000-90,000/year for a Bachelor's and DKK 65,000-120,000/year for a Master's (business schools like CBS at the top of that range); living costs around DKK 80,000/year. Non-EU students pay full tuition - Denmark is not tuition-free. Danish Government and university scholarships reduce tuition for strong applicants. Figures indicative; verify per intake.

Language requirements

English is widely spoken and many degrees are taught in English.

Visa

Accept your offer, show proof of funds of around DKK 80,328 for living costs, and apply for the student residence permit through SIRI followed by biometrics; register for a CPR number and health card on arrival.

Post-study work rights

Students may work 20 hours a week (full-time in June-August). Graduates can stay on an establishment card for up to 3 years to seek and take work, with skilled-route permits for shortage and higher-paid roles.
