Selection process and supporting documentation

Please note that the selection process requires specific supporting documentation.

How the selection works

The selection is made from the following three criteria:

  • Grades of academic courses.
  • Relevance of previous studies in relation to the programme.
  • A motivation letter. The motivation letter is included in a mandatory application summary sheet for each programme.

What you need to do

Follow the instructions under “How to apply” on the programme page for each programme you are applying to. You will find the application summary sheet there.

DSV master’s programmes

If you are applying to more than one programme, you need to fill out and submit a separate sheet for each programme.
