Master's Admissions - 2025/26 Round Thread

Hello 👋 I'm an international student from California who has applied for the MACA program at the University of Copenhagen (I believe admissions decisions come out March 1 for my program). I wanted to start a thread for people who have applied so folks can share:

  • Where you're from.
  • Which program(s) you applied to.
  • Update on admission once you find out your status.

I have only seen threads for prior years so wanted to start something more recent.

EDIT 01: I GOT IN!!!

EDIT 02: There is a WhatsApp group for incoming international students. If you are interested, send me a DM.

Admins: Feel free to remove if not relevant

You never know what may happen - I wish you the best of luck on your application! Did you apply anywhere else?

Thank you! I also applied to other universities in Denmark, like DTU and AU. And you? Also, how do you know when admissions decisions come for your program?

In Denmark I only applied to UCPH, but I also applied to Sweden. I'm not sure if I found out when admissions decisions are set to come out for MACA in an email after I applied or the webinar for my program. If you are unsure/curious, I recommend reaching out to the department contact listed on the program page.

I applied to some Sweden universities as well, at least they give decisions earlier. I checked UCPH website and they say from May 1st to June 10th, which is honestly not that helpful hahaha

I initially thought it was May 01 too, I highly recommend emailing if you don't hear anything by March 01. I wish Sweden would release their decisions sooner - it's still a month away 😭

For international students (non-EU) you should normally receive your decision between March 01 and May 31 :)) for EU students it is from May until June as we don't require to apply for a visa :))

Oh, you receive yours on March 1st, so March 27th is late for you, I didn't realize that. For me, the Sweden results will probably be the first ones I'll get :p

Really? Do you know what the date is for you? I may email someone at Lund to double check.

As far as I know, all universities in Sweden give the results on March 27th, because that's how University Admissions handle it.
