Aarhus BSS includes teaching materials, examinations, catering and administration in its fee, while the DTU fee covers tuition, study materials and catering at its campus. Tuition is only part of your budget, since Denmark has a high cost of living and Copenhagen costs more for accommodation than cities like Aarhus or Kolding.
My Advice
Compare what each fee actually includes before you compare totals. Treat these figures as indicative and confirm the current fee for your intake on the university's official page. Add living costs to the tuition to see your real first-year budget, especially if you are considering Copenhagen.
