How to submit a successful application

What documents do I need to upload after I apply?

An overview of the documents you need to submit is provided on our page for international admissions.

All applicants must upload the following documents:

  • Copy of your passport, or EU national ID card
  • Enclosure form
  • Documents showing change of name (if this applies to you)
  • Proof of sufficient English language proficiency
  • Relevant educational diploma and transcript
  • Diploma supplement (if you have received one)
  • All documents must be uploaded in their original language, as well as an official translation into English or a Scandinavian language. Self-translated documents, or AI translated documents, are not accepted
  • Documents for programme specific admission requirements
  • Proof of financial ability (only for non-EU/EEA applicants)
  • See countries with additional requirements here

Will you confirm that you received my documentation?

Yes, when you submit a new document, you will receive an automatically generated receipt.

It is also possible to check that your documentation has been uploaded successfully by logging in to the online application portal. 

Can I upload documents after the deadline?

​​In principle, the deadlines for submission of documentation are absolute, and your application for admission will be rejected if we do not receive the correct and complete documentation within the given deadline. This also includes the results of the English language test. If you know that you will receive important documentation after the given deadline, you must contact us, and we will try to find a solution.

Can I delete documents after I have submitted them?

You can delete documents right after uploading them, but it is not possible to delete documents when we have started processing your application.
