Re­mem­ber to up­load doc­u­ment­a­tion for your Quota 2 ap­plic­a­tion

5 July at 12:00 noon CEST is the deadline for uploading documentation for fulfilment of entry requirements. You must upload your documentation to your application on Optagelse.dk. Here are 5 things you need to know about documentation.

1) Upload documentation now and avoid the risk of waiting time

We recommend that you upload your documentation for meeting the entry requirements and check your application one last time well before the deadline – you can already start now.

Optagelse.dk closes at exactly 12:00 noon CEST, and you may experience some waiting time on 5 July. If you upload your documentation close to the deadline, you might not be able to complete it by 12:00 noon CEST.

2) Check that you have uploaded documentation to your application

It is your responsibility to upload everything correctly before the deadline. You will not receive any confirmation that CBS has received your documents. Therefore, it is important that you make sure that all the documents are attached to the right applications. If you can see that you have uploaded and attached your documents, then we can see them too.

Find a list of all the documents you need to upload on cbs.dk > Documentation.

Do you have to retake an exam in August? 

If you do not have your diploma before 5 July because you have to retake an exam in August due to illness, read more about what to do on cbs.dk > Documentation > Re-take due to illness.

3) Documentation for supplementary courses, tests and exams

If you have taken supplementary courses in mathematics, social sciences, Danish or English, remember to upload documentation to Optagelse.dk no later than 5 July 12:00 noon CEST. This also applies if you have taken a Cambridge Exam or a language test. Read more about how to document that you meet the languge requirement on cbs.dk > Application and Admission > Language requirement.

Please note that we do not accept any supplementary courses over the summer to meet the entry requirements for our bachelor programmes for the 2026 admission.

4) You cannot upload documentation for extra-curricular activities or motivational essay

The deadline for uploading documentation for extra-curricular activities and your motivational essay was 15 March 2026 12.00 noon CET. Therefore, it is no longer possible to upload documentation for e.g. travels abroad, work experience or your motivational essay.

5) You still have time to change your priorities on Optagelse.dk

Have you changed your mind about the order in which you prioritised your choices on Optagelse.dk? Don’t worry! You still have time to change it. You can also delete programmes if you do not want to apply for them after all. Optagelse.dk is open for changes until 5 July 12 noon CEST.

If you are unsure about how to prioritise your choices, you can find our advice for choosing the right programme(s) on the page Choosing well.

If you have a Danish upper secondary exam, you can also add programmes that you want to apply for in Quota 1. 

Please note that you cannot apply for a new programme in Quota 2.
