Extra requirements	You would need to provide a proof of your English proficiency: an equivalent to a CEFR level B2 at the moment of application and C1 at the moment of departure. Students from the English taught LLB and LLM programme are exempt from this requirement.
Important information	A Danish student is supposed to have obtained a bachelor's degree (180 ECTS) in order to follow the Master level courses that are taught in English; these courses are on a high academic level, which requires a lot of reading, involvement and active participation. A Bachelor student can go on exchange to this university and attend all the lectures and seminars on the Master level if he/she obtained already min. 120 ECTS at UG. Please note that each course at Aarhus University is worth 10 ECTS. This means that if you want to follow a non-law course, you would have to take 40 ECTS in total per semester!

Financial support / Grants	More information on study and placement grants for law students can be found at the website www.rug.nl/law/lep. An Erasmus+ grant covers part of the travel and accommodation expenses involved in studying abroad. At the moment the Erasmus+ grant has been set at € 330 - € 390 per calendar month, depending on the country of your host university. This may change per academic year. Your application for an exchange period at one of the Faculty's partner universities also counts as your application for a grant. When you receive notification of a place for study abroad, you will also learn whether or not you have been awarded a Erasmus grant and receive more information on the Erasmus grant.
