50 Denmark Your Scholarship in Europe 2008-2009 Small regional colleges merge into larger educational establishments, or CVUs, that closely cooperate with the university sector. The academic and college sectors are governed by the Ministry of Education. SCHOLARSHIPS Denmark spends 8% of its gross domestic product on education. Higher education establishments are publicly fi nanced. The Danes are entitled to free higher education and, although foreign students have to pay tuition fees, there are a number of scholarships available according to the Agreement on Cooperation in Culture, Science, and Education between Denmark and Russia. The Ministry of Science, Education, and Innovation offers scholarships for Russian students for a short period of study/ research in a Danish institution: • Scholarships for young B.A./B.Sc, M.A./M.Sc. or specialist degree holders; • Scholarships for three-weeks’ Danish language summer schools. There are no scholarships for beginner-level Danish language courses or part-time courses. Please be advised that government scholarships do not cover the whole graduation period required to receive a Bachelors/Masters/Doctors decree. The scholarships are distributed by the Cirius agency operating under the Ministry of Education’s aegis. You can fi nd up-to-date information on Danish government scholarships and subsidies at http://www.ciriusonline.dk. In certain cases, Russian students can apply to receive SU (State Education Grant and Loan Scheme) subsidies. For more information, visit http://www.su.dk (click on the «In English» menu item). HOW DO I GET MY SCHOLARSHIP? In order to receive a Danish government scholarship, you need to complete an application form (this can be printed off at the Cirius website or obtained from the Russian Federal Education Agency) with a detailed description of the course or research you would like to follow in Denmark. This application form should be sent to the Russian Ministry of Education and Science Federal Education Agency before the date specifi ed by the Ministry. The Federal Agency will then forward your documents to Cirius so that all the government scholarship applications reach them no later than March 1st and the language course applications no later than May 1st. The fi nal decision to grant scholarships rests with Cirius. When considering the applicant’s case, Cirius assesses whether it is possible to arrange an appropriate study/ research programme in one of a Danish institution. If candidates are approved, they will be notifi ed by Cirius via the Federal Education Agency. If you have been granted a scholarship, please apply for a Danish entry visa/residence permit (required for programme duration of 90 days and above) well in advance at the Royal Danish Embassy in Moscow (or Royal Danish Consulate General in St. Petersburg for residents of St. Petersubrg and the Leningrad Region). It takes up to ninety days for your residence permit ap-

VALUE OF DANISH GOVERNMENT SCHOLARSHIPS Presently, the scholarship covers your tuition fee and health insurance (if you are staying in Denmark for more than 3 months). In addition, there is a monthly allowance of DKK 5,000 (app. €670). No additional funds for accompanying family members are provided. The scholarship holders are not permitted to enter into paid employment in Denmark during their scholarship period. Scholarships are valid for a fi xed period during the academic year. In Denmark, the autumn term begins on 1st September while the spring term starts on 1st February. LANGUAGE ISSUES Although the offi cial language at the Danish universities and colleges is Danish, a number of educational establishments also offer courses in English and other languages (see the list at http://www.ug.dk). Special courses for foreign students can also be arranged. You can fi nd out more about the languages in which the courses are taught by contacting individual universities or colleges.
