Deadline for applications: 15 January 2024

Tuition fee waivers and scholarships

A limited number of Danish state tuition fee waivers and scholarships are offered for selected master’s programmes to highly talented students who come from countries outside of the EU/EEA and are required to pay tuition fees at Roskilde University.

The tuition fee waivers and scholarships are only distributed once a year for the September entry. The tuition fee waiver and scholarship has a maximum length of 22 months for programmes that start in September. The scholarship amounts to DKK 7,800 per month, and is meant to cover living expenses in Denmark.

Tuition fee waiver and scholarship students must follow the study plan and not be delayed in their studies in order to maintain the tuition fee waiver and scholarship.

Who can apply for a scholarship?

In order to be eligible to apply for a tuition fee waiver and scholarship, you must be a non-EU/EEA citizen that is required to pay tuition fees and apply to one of the master’s programmes that offer scholarships.

Applicants are ranked based on their academic performance, motivational letter and work experience. Family or social background is not taken into account.

Before each admission round, the university selects the specific master’s programmes that may offer one or more tuition fee waivers and scholarships.
