I don't know what hides insider 'stricter admisson'. However, it's  
true that it's free to study in denmark if you get in, and that there  
is a wee bit of money each month (for a number of months). The  
admission differ. Higher art/design/etc schools normally have have a  
test, one have to pass. At the conventional universities one get in  
by having a "high-school" grade above a specific and study-relative  
threshold (which in reality means: each study have room for a number  
of new students each year, which will be those with the highest grade).

On topic, i can in no way suggest denmark as for studying computer  
music.
