Australians - Study in Europe

 
 

 
 

This website is dedicated to making it easier for Australians to embark on postgraduate study in Europe.

As well as providing a host of links to relevant websites in Europe and Australia ASiE also undertakes research and consultation with the EU Commission, European governments and a great number of universities and foundations. The aim is to produce and update as much as possible all information concerning grants and scholarships available to Australian students seeking to pursue doctoral studies in Europe.

 
 

Healthcare & Insurance

 

Any person, who lives in Denmark, is entitled to free emergency hospital treatment.
In case of emergency, dial 112 to contact the police, the fire brigade or the ambulance. Emergency calls from payphones are free of charge.

People with residence in Denmark

Apply once, if symptoms persist, please call our 1800 number


As a full time student you will have had to gain residence in Denmark  Once you are registered with the municipal civil registration office in Denmark, you are automatically covered by Denmark's health insurance scheme after a period of six weeks. Hence, it is strongly recommended that you arrange for health insurance to cover any incidental medical bills for the first eight weeks of your stay – eight weeks in order to be sure to be covered by insurance in case the issue of the Danish Health Service card is to be delayed. Note that Australia does not have a reciprocal health insurance agreement with Denmark so you will need this insurance if you do not wish to run the risk of an unexpected and high medical bill.
