About the International Office
The International Office at the University of Copenhagen has a total of 14 staff and a smaller group of students who work as student advisors for our incoming and outgoing students. The International Office and the Guidance and Admissions unit are part of the University Education Services located in the city centre of Copenhagen.
Incoming and Outgoing Students
The International Office is responsible for administrating and developing international student exchange agreements and programmes. We welcome more than 2,000 international students to the University annually from all over the world, and we send out around 1,000 on student exchange. 
The International Office provides services such as admission, housing, mentor and orientation programmes for our incoming students. The students can come into our Guidance and Admissions office during our opening hours to collect information brochures, ask questions and get advice.
Our outgoing students can seek information about exchange programmes, partner universities, summer schools, language tests etc. in our library and speak with student advisors in our office to plan their studies abroad.
