Qualifying Exams from other countries

We distinguish between high school diplomas of a general nature that are equivalent to a Danish “stx” (3-year high school) and other exams.

A lot of high school diplomas from EU and EØS and a number of internationally recognized exams of the type “Baccalaureat” are considered equivalent to a Danish “stx”, and we have no further requirements regarding contents and level of subjects apart from English at level B (See below)

Applicants with diplomas of a vocational nature and applicants with a diploma outside EU must meet extra requirements regarding level of English and Math.

For more information about international qualifications for undergraduate programmes please go to the Danish Ministry of Research and Education website

Language
A specific requirement for the Crafts programme is English equivalent to the Danish level B. For more information see Requirements and Rules.

Requirements for subjects and average
If you are eligible to apply, there are no requirements to specific subjects in your exam, subjects at certain levels or grade point average except for applicants with a vocational diploma.
