AARHUS UNIVERSITY DANISH STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR NON-EU/EEA STUDENTS

Application Deadline: 15 September, 2025

LOCATION: Denmark

Aarhus University offers a limited number of Danish state scholarships for non-EU students. The scholarships are financed by the Danish state. Aarhus University does not have its own scholarship funds but relies solely on funding from the Danish state for this purpose. Aarhus University automatically considers you for Danish State Scholarships.

ELIGIBILITY:

In selecting scholarship recipients among the academically qualified applicants, priority will be given to applicants with excellent academic qualifications.

Typically, only one or two scholarships are offered on each of our Master’s degree programmes. At some faculties, strategic focus may be placed on selected degree programmes or applicants from specific countries.

When you apply for admission, your application will automatically be assessed with a view to a possible scholarship along with our academic assessment of your qualifications. You should not upload any additional documentation to your application for admission.

The scholarship is connected very specifically to your Master’s degree programme and cannot be transferred to another degree programme at AU. 

You do not need to complete a separate application.

If you submit your application by the specified deadline, the university will automatically assess you for a scholarship.

If you are selected for a scholarship, you will receive a scholarship offer along with your letter of admission in the application system. Please note there will be a very short deadline to accept your possible tuition waiver/scholarship offer.

If you are not selected for a scholarship, you will receive a tuition fee notification instead.
