Supplementary courses

Taking supplementary courses in Denmark

If you live in Denmark, there are different options to complete supplementary courses that vary in duration - from short summer courses to half year or one year courses. 

On vuc.dk and ug.dk you can find information about the various supplementary courses including courses offered and dates. Please note that the websites are in Danish, as the courses are mainly offered in Danish.

If you have further questions about supplementary courses in Denmark, you should contact eVejledningen.
 

Taking supplementary courses abroad

兴发娱乐官网手机版客户端 University recognizes supplementary courses taken outside of Denmark, if we assess them as being comparable to the Danish subjects and levels that are specific admission requirements.

兴发娱乐官网手机版客户端 do not have a set list of supplementary courses that we recognize for courses taken outside of Denmark. If you need to take a supplementary course, please follow these general guidelines to help you find a relevant course:

• The educational level of the course must be comparable in level to a Danish upper secondary school education or above. You can find general comparisons between the level of completed educational qualifications from a number of countries and levels in the Danish education system on the website of the Ministry of Higher Education and Science.
• You must take the course at an accredited institution. If you are taking a language course, it can be completed at an accredited language school. An accredited institution means a school or higher education institution, which has been approved, usually by the relevant ministry, to provide specific study programmes.  
• The course must fulfil the required number of hours of instruction (60 minutes). If you have completed a relevant subject, but do not fulfil the requirement of the number of hours of instruction, it is usually sufficient to take a supplementary course that covers the missing number of hours of instruction.
• 兴发娱乐官网手机版客户端 accept both online and in-class courses. If you take the supplementary course online, you usually need to be able to take the required number of hours of instruction as online lectures.
• The course must end with an exam. You need to fulfil the grade requirement for those subjects that are specific admission requirements. 
• The course content must be relevant. The course usually needs to cover the main topics of the required subject.

Once you apply for admission, you must submit final certificates or documentation of enrolment in any supplementary course(s). You must also state all supplementary courses in your online application form. When going through your application, 兴发娱乐官网手机版客户端 University will make an individual assessment of whether the course fulfils the specific admission requirement that you lack.
 

Pre-assessment

If you want to make sure that the supplementary course will be recognized by 兴发娱乐官网手机版客户端 University, you also have the option to apply for a preliminary assessment of both the course you plan to take and your foreign qualification. Pre-assessments are offered between October 1 and December 1.

Information on how to apply for a pre-assessment.

Individual competence assessment of your subject-related qualifications

If you live in Denmark, you may be able to get an individual competence assessment of your subject-related qualifications. You can apply for an individual competence assessment, if you can document your overall skills, knowledge and qualifications in the specific admission requirement that you lack. It can be skills gained from e.g. prior education or through work.

You need to contact an Adult Education Centre (VUC). Here they will assess through a test, interview or assignment whether your overall competencies correspond to the required level in a given subject. If your skills correspond to the specific admission requirement, you will receive a certificate that documents your qualifications. 
 

Exemption from the specific admission requirements

You may be able to apply for an exemption from one or more of the specific admission requirements.

You can apply for an exemption, if you have completed other educational qualifications that are comparable to the specific admission requirements you lack.
 

How to apply for an exemption from the specific admission requirements

You must upload an application for an exemption in addition to the required documents stated in step 3.

You must submit the following in order to apply for an exemption:

• a separate statement in which you state based on which course(s) you apply for the exemption and argue why the course(s) are comparable
• relevant course descriptions in English

You must upload the application for an exemption from the specific admission requirements at optagelse.dk by the application deadline of 15 March at 12 noon CET.
 

How your application is assessed

Your application is reviewed at the relevant bachelor¡¯s programme when they receive your application for admission. If they assess that you have other academic qualifications that are comparable to the specific admission requirements, you can be granted an exemption.

Since all applications for an exemption are individually assessed on a case-by-case basis, it is not possible tell you beforehand if you will be granted an exemption.

Please note that an exemption from the specific requirement cannot be granted, if you for some reason (e.g. due to illness or if your upper secondary school does not offer the subject at the required subject level) have not been able to pass the subject(s) required in order to fulfil the specific admission requirements.

If you have completed supplementary courses by the application deadline, you must document this when you apply.

If you have not completed your supplementary courses by the application deadline, you must:

• specify the exact course you are taking in your online application and, if possible, submit documentation of the enrolment in the course
• submit proof of your completed course to 兴发娱乐官网手机版客户端 University by July 5  (if you are a non-EU/EEA citizen that require a residence permit to study) OR August 31 (all other applicants)
   

Conditional admission with the requirement of passing supplementary course(s)

If you are offered conditional admission with the requirement of documenting that you have completed the supplementary course, you will only be admitted to 兴发娱乐官网手机版客户端 University if you pass the supplementary course before semester start.

Please note that you are not able to get into a lower priority, if you are offered conditional admission at a higher priority. This means that if you do not pass your supplementary course, you will not be offered a place at one of the lower priority programs, and you will not be offered a study place.
