When you apply for admission at a Master’s degree programme at Aarhus University, there are a number of different documents which you must upload along with your application. The documentation must show that you have completed your degree programme and any other qualifying activities.
Select your qualifying degree programme below and find out what documentation requirements apply to you.The application portal will, in connection with the creation of your application, request that you upload a number of documents. In connection with the application, you, as a student with legal right of admission, should only obtain your transcript of records via electronic data interchange in the digital application system.

Translation of documents
Documents that were not issued in either Danish, Norwegian, Swedish or English must be translated into one of these languages.
Translations of official diplomas must be issued by the university or accompanied by the signature and stamp of an authorised translator or your educational institution.
You are allowed to translate the course descriptions into English yourself, but if you chose to do so, you must enclose the original and official course description or insert a direct link to where they can be found on the website of your educational institution.
Any improved grades will not be accepted. This is because it is not possible in Denmark to improve grades for courses already passed at the bachelor's level. Therefore, if you have multiple grades for the same course, we will use the grade from the first time you passed the course in the GPA calculation.
Applicants with a qualifying exam from an institution where it is possible to improve grades must therefore upload a comprehensive transcript showing all exam attempts, the date of each attempt, and the corresponding exam results. If an applicant cannot provide a comprehensive exam record from their home university, a confirmation from the home university is required, stating that the applicant's transcript does not include improved exam grades.
You must upload a detailed transcript that includes all exams as well as the dates and results of each exam.
Applicants with a Norwegian qualifying degree can document this with the so-called "utdanningsplan," which is a transcript you can find in "Studentweb." Contact your educational institution if you are uncertain. Alternatively, we also accept a screenshot of the "Alle resultater" page in "Studentweb" which must be signed/stamped by your educational institution. However, all results and your name must be visible, so you need to take a screenshot showing the entire page.
If you do not upload this documentation, we will unfortunately not be able to assess your application in relation to the selection criteria ‘Grades from the qualifying degree' or Grades achieved in relevant subject fields,' if the latter is included as a selection criterion. These criteria are used to place applicants in the final ranking order, which determines who will be offered admission.
To ensure that your application is assessed correctly and gives you the best chances for admission, it is therefore crucial that you upload a detailed transcript with all the necessary information.
