The rolling admissions process allows applicants to apply for a space in one of the school’s existing classes if a space should become available during the school year. It is important to note that rolling admission is limited and that all applications are assessed first against the admissions criteria and then the applicants level of language proficiency. Not all applicants will be invited to a screening.


Applications submitted for rolling admission during the school year are valid only for the school year applied and will be annulled the following September. If you are not offered a space during the school year, and you wish to be considered for admission again the following school year, you must reapply.


Documentation check list

Applications for rolling admission must be accompanied by the following supporting documentation:

  1. A passport photo/copy of the passport photo page of the child (all applicants)
  2. A copy of the passport photo page or birth certificate of the parents/legal guardians (all applicants)
  3. Proof of employment in Denmark (for example, copy of recent contract, pay slip or letter from employer) (Category a, b1 and b2 applicants)

  5. Proof of guardianship of children not living with their parents (if applicable).
