All 4 notes

The Professional Bachelor's Degree in Education (Vordingborg) is not listed: its own page says it "is taught partly in English and partly in Danish", and students who do not already meet the Danish requirement must learn Danish during the degree.
Absalon interviews every quota 2 applicant for Biotechnology, including every applicant with an international qualification such as the IB. Places split 65 per cent quota 1 and 35 per cent quota 2.
Absalon states that the political agreement to reduce English-taught programmes does not affect its English-taught biotechnology BEng in Kalundborg.
Absalon's administrative address is in Slagelse. Only Kalundborg is listed here, because that is where both English-taught degrees are taught.
