Entry requirements for students from Denmark

If you're joining us from Denmark, the entry requirements you need to meet will depend on the course you want to study.

We consider all applications we receive. However, to make sure you get the most out of your time studying with us and have the best chance of applying successfully, we recommend the following minimum qualifications:

Undergraduate

If you've completed the Hojere Handelseksamen and have achieved a grade of 7, we'll consider you for admission onto an undergraduate course such as a Bachelor's degree.

Postgraduate

If you've completed a Bachelor's degree in Denmark with a grade of 9-10 from a recognised Higher Education institution, we'll consider you for admission onto our Master's programmes.

English Language

When you join us, it’s important that you can speak and understand English to the level that your course requires. The specific English language requirements will be on your chosen course page. In general, we are looking for an IELTS of 6.0 overall with no component below 5.5 for most Undergraduate courses and an IELTS of 6.5 overall with no component below 6.0 for most Postgraduate Taught courses.

Alternatively, if you have achieved a grade of 7 in English in your Hojere Handelseksamen (HHX) (Higher Commercial Examination), we can accept that for most of our Undergraduate and Postgraduate courses.

You can find alternative English language certificates we accept here.
