Study Abroad in Denmark

Government ScholarshipsDenmark scholarships
Can you think of anything more exciting than studying in a foreign country that you’ve never been to before? What about if you went on somebody else’s dime? Well, with many students unable to afford study abroad programs the government offers scholarship programs to make it possible for all students to participate.

The Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarships are one of the best ways to get funding for study abroad programs. Each year, over 2,300 of these scholarships are awarded to students who otherwise would not be able to travel. To be eligible for this award, students must already be receiving Federal Pell Grants. This is because the Gilman Scholarships focus on diversifying the students who participate in study abroad programs. They are especially interested in awarding scholarships to students with high financial need, who come from diverse backgrounds, community college students, and students with disabilities. Students from these groups are largely underrepresented in these kinds of international programs. The average amount awarded by the Gilman Scholarships is $4,000, and the max award is $5,000. With this amount of funding available, you would be crazy not to apply!

The University of Copenhagen, founded in 1479, has nearly 35,000 students and is Denmark's largest institution of research and education. It is also a major force in the Øresund University, a cooperative venture of Swedish and Danish institutions of higher learning.

Location
Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark. Officially founded in 1167, the city developed from a small fishing village into København, "port of tradesmen," a bustling port for trading vessels from all over the Baltic region. Today, with a population of more than 1.5 million, Copenhagen is the largest city in Scandinavia and the commercial, cultural, and administrative center of Denmark. Copenhagen was recently nominated the most liveable city.
Although as busy and noisy as any large city, Copenhagen has managed to retain much of its charm. The inner city's many pedestrian streets, beautiful squares, and narrow lanes richly reward the casual stroller, and its canals, picturesque towers, and old buildings can be appreciated from numerous outdoor cafés and restaurants

Academics
The University of Copenhagen has the academic structure of a traditional European university, with six main areas of study: Humanities, Social Sciences, Theology, Science, Health Sciences, and Law.
