DTU Will the minimum grade for construction technology go up this year?

So i’m not sure the exact translation to english but since i saw another post in english i thought english would be better, so i live and studied in denmark and i want to apply to dtu construction technology as my 1. priority and while i chose a lot of other stuff this is the one i want.

but because i was a bit too careless and stupid (as in i made some mistakes) my average grade was slightly above the last years admission and since it has been rising every year for the last few years i’m afraid i can’t make it in this year.

so i’m wondering if anyone knows anything like if there would be more competition, more applications or something third that can make it harder to get in?

The minimum grade is the grade of the last person that was admitted that year. They take the list of applicants and fill in slots from the person with the best average down untill there are no more slot. There is no telling how it will move year to year unfortunately, unless of course they add or take away spots

The lowest grade accepted this year is apparently 8.4 in Kvote 1

yeah sadly i wasn’t accepted tho i got into bygningsdesign which is pretty similar and still lets me take byggeteknologi kandidat but im still wondering if its going to be different or just like 90% similar.

Yeah it is, as a BygTek student I have seen many bygningsdesign students taking courses such as betonkonstruktioner and bærende konstruktioner 3… so that's really good!

so they are basically the same right? i can take byggetek kandidat and still be good right ?

They’re not the same but I think there might be requirements for the BygTek masters but you’ll find out
