Courses at UCPH as a credit student

As a credit student, you are enrolled for a short period of time, e.g. one or two semesters. You may want to follow one or more courses at UCPH. 

In short, a credit student is a student who takes a limited number of courses or semesters at the University of Copenhagen as part of his/her ongoing higher education programme.

If you are already studying at the University of Copenhagen, you can also apply for enrolment as a credit student at the other faculties.

On kurser.ku.dk, you can find the bachelor's and master's course offerings and information about courses at the University of Copenhagen for the current and upcoming semesters.

To study one or more semesters at UCPH as a credit student, your home institution must approve a study plan as eligible for credit transfer in your degree program.

In addition to applying for enrolment at UCPH, you must also obtain a pre-approval from your home university.

If you have not yet received a reply to your pre-approval application before the UCPH deadline, you may still apply. In that case, you simply need to upload the pre-approval later.

If you already have the pre-approval, remember to upload it with your application.
