Danish institutions offering long-term scholarships
It is only possible to apply for a scholarship for studies at higher education institutions who offer long-term scholarships. Please see the list below.
General information
Scholarship period
Scholarships are tenable during the academic year. The autumn term begins on September 1st, the spring term on February 1st.
With respect to residence permits and/or visa, we recommend that accepted applicants contact the Danish diplomatic representation in their home country well in advance of their entry into Denmark.
Scholarship amount
Scholarships include free tuition and a monthly stipend of DKK 6,500.
Danish Government Scholarships can be used as a contribution to cover travel, visa fees, accommodation, food, and other living expenses. The scholarships are for one person only. Additional amounts for accompanying family members are not available.
Please note that living expenses in Denmark are generally high, and that housing, especially in the larger cities, is often very expensive. The scholarship will not most likely not cover all expenses.
Some Danish higher education institutions may choose to charge a fee in conjunction with PhD courses.
Participants may be liable to pay tax on their scholarship in the Kingdom of Denmark. Therefore, scholarship recipients should contact the local tax authorities for an individual assessment. In the event that the Danish tax authorities decide that a scholarship is taxable, the Agency for Science and Higher Education has no power to overturn the decision.
Language of instruction
Danish is the normal language of instruction at institutions of higher education in Denmark, but more and more institutions offer courses in English or in another foreign language or have special arrangements for non-Danish students.
Further information on courses in other languages must be obtained directly from the participating Danish institutions of higher education.
