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.
Plan your SU now
- or you may miss out on SU in your next higher education programme

We encourage you, as a first step, to visit su.dk, where you will find help and guidance for understanding the new SU rules. On su.dk, you will find specific Scenarios and Examples: What does the reform mean for me?, rules for students receiving supplementary grant for physically or mentally disabled (handicaptillæg), a video explaining the new SU rules, and lots of other useful information.
