STUDENT VISA
{Country} Student Visa
You can’t apply for a {Country} student visa on your own. First you need an admission letter. Then the university asks the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for your visa invitation. With that invitation you apply for the visa, and after you arrive you register through your university.
Step by step
- Get your admission letter from the university.
- Pay the visa-processing fee the university asks for.
- The university requests your visa invitation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
- Apply for your student visa (e-visa or embassy, depending on your nationality).
- Travel, then complete registration and residence steps with your university.
Documents usually required
- Passport valid well beyond your planned stay
- Admission letter and visa invitation
- Passport photos
- Academic certificates
- Medical certificate and health insurance
- Proof of funds and flight booking (if asked)
Some nationalities (for example citizens of several CIS countries) do not need a visa to enter {Country}. The rules do change, so we check them for your passport.
Questions
How long does the visa invitation take?
Usually a few weeks once the university submits it. Don’t leave it to the last month before classes start.

Yes, it can. Complete and honest documents are the best protection. Don’t let anyone talk you into “adjusting” a document.
