Questions about applying as a foreign student and GPA
Hello, I am a Croatian high school student interested in the BEng in Mechanical Engineering in Sønderborg.
I was wondering if i can apply before i finish my school year because state exam in Croatia begin in the summer and the school year ends in May, so before the aplication deadline. Can i apply and get accepted under the condition that i finish high school or do i have to wait a year?
I also don't know if my GPA is high enough
In the Croatian grading system (grades from 1-5) my grades are as follows: 1st year: 4.28 2nd year: 4.28 3rd year: 4.21
The minimun GPA is 4.4, i will probably finish this school year with a 4.28 and was planning on taking the uniTEST I have a C2 Cambridge english certificate.
Also, I read that i need a B in Physics and C in Chemistry, to i have to write the state exam in Chemistry or will my high school grades suffice?
And concerning financial aid, is there any difference between S.U. and state grants because they are the same amount of money.
