We encourage you, as a first step, to visit SU.dk, where you will find help and guidance for understanding the new SU rules. For information in English, please go to: SU reform - English
What is new?
From January 2027, the maximum SU grant portions in total will be reduced from 70 to 58.
When the new rules for SU come into effect from January 2027 onwards, the 70 SU grant portions you can receive will be reduced to 58 if you have started a new education after July 1, 2025. Therefore, you may have SU grant portions that will lapse when the limit is reduced from 70 to 58. On the SU grant portion calculator page (in Danish), you can calculate how many SU grant portions you will have left when the new rules come into effect.
When do the new rules take effect, and who do they apply to?
The new rules apply to SU (student grant) from January 2027 onward for students who begin a new higher education programme on July 1, 2025, or later.
Until January 2027, the current rules will apply to all students, regardless of when they started their studies. Therefore, you will receive SU under the same rules as today until then.
