To be eligible for the 2nd year scholarship you must:

• Have passed a minimum of 60 ECTS during your first year of studies at SCIENCE (the results must be registered with the university no later than 1 September).
• Have achieved excellent grades in the courses passed in your first year of studies at SCIENCE (In 2024 the fee-paying students who were awarded this scholarship had a GPA of 10.75 or higher on the Danish grading scale).
