Tuition fee waiver
Non-EU/EEA/Swiss applicants with a permanent Danish residence permit or a preliminary Danish residence permit with a view to permanent residency will be exempt from paying tuition fee. Please make sure to include a copy of your residence permit and a scan of your residence card when applying.

Payment Deadline for New Students
New students must pay the first semester’s tuition fee 10 days after they have been offered a study place. It is not possible for us to process visa applications until we have received the tuition fee.

Scholarships
The Royal Danish Academy is unfortunately not able to offer any scholarships or other types of financial support.

Brexit
Following the exit, applicants from the UK are considered non-EU nationals and thereby eligible to pay tuition fee.

The Withdrawal Agreement ensures that UK nationals residing legally in Denmark before 1 January 2021 will maintain their rights and priveleges as EU citizens and will not be eligible to pay tuition fee at the Academy.

UK nationals residing legally in another EU country by 1 January 2021 may also be eligible for a tuition fee waiver. Please enquire with Admissions.
