{pre-approvals}If you want to take courses at another university in the future as a part of your degree at the IT University, you must apply for a pre-approval.
Be aware that aside from applying for pre-approval from ITU, you also need to follow the guidelines for admission, if you are taking the courses at other Universities. Look for admission rules for guest students or exchange students on their website.
If your courses are to be part of an individual specialisation, remember you need to apply for an individual specialisation, and not just the pre-approval.
For information about approval of courses that you have passed before you enrolled at ITU, please see the section
Credit Transfer.
Timeline for applications
The deadline is every 1st of the month throughout the year
(July not included)

{How to apply}
You must enclose documentation as links (e.g. to a university’s course catalogue). Make sure that links are stable.
You do not need to send us ITU-Diplomas or course descriptions for ITU-courses. We only need documentation from other universities.
Send the application to Student Affairs and Programmes at sap@itu.dk.
Processing your application
The handling of your application begins after the deadline. It involves different tasks in order to secure the academic output for you, when taking courses outside of ITU. This involves evaluating and comparing the courses that are listed for pre-approval, to guarantee that it matches you programme.
Because different people are involved at different times, and because of the amount of applications we normally receive, the processing time is 4 weeks. We always work hard to have a reply for you as soon as possible.

Complaints
If your application is rejected or only partly approved, you can file a complaint.
You must send the complaint within two weeks from the day you received the decision.
- If you want to complain in relation to the academic assessment, your complaint will go to the Credit Transfer Appeals Board / meritankenævnet.
- If you want to complain in relation to the legal assessment, you complaint will be handled by ITU.
No matter who you are complaining to you send the complaint in an email to sap@itu.dk and we will direct it to the department responsible.
It can take up to 4 weeks processing your application.
