Student Visa
A Different Type of Residency
←Modification
The most popular and straightforward way to move to Spain. Just enroll in an accredited educational institution, and European residency is just a few steps away. You don't have to return to higher academic education; you can choose a language school or even do an MBA in business.
And once you've moved your life to the sunniest country in Europe, it's easy to switch the student visa to another type of residency.
Why a Student Visa?
Easy Start
Clear application process. The student visa can be easily changed to another type of Spanish residency.
Minimal Budget
Financial requirements for a student visa are more modest than most, and the list of mandatory documents is shorter.
No Age Limit
You can study in Spain at age 16 or 60+. It's never too late to learn.
Work Opportunities
Suitable for Family Relocation
The World's Third Most Popular Language
You can combine studies with internships and part-time work in a Spanish company: 30 hours per week maximum.
The opportunity to bring your spouse and children along, as well as furry and tail-wagging family members.
Knowing Spanish means never being alone. There are at least 400 million people in 20 countries who will understand you.
Promising Future
European education is highly valued worldwide. A Spanish diploma is a strong guarantee of future employment and an immediate key to unlimited travel throughout the Schengen zone.

Who Is a Student in Spain?
Bachelor or Master's student
Spanish universities rank high in international ratings. There are plenty of programs to choose from in both Spanish and English.
Any language school student
Choose an accredited language school, and then improve your Spanish as much as possible during the course. By enhancing your language skills, you can then find international or local work.
MBA Program Student
Business education is another opportunity not only to improve your resume and upgrade your skills, but also to move to Spain with prospects of becoming a top manager or professional leader.
What Is Needed for a Student Visa?
The most crucial thing is to enroll and pay for tuition in full at an accredited educational institution. We will help you find a language school, university, or business school that meets your requirements.
Things to Consider When Applying:
The course must include a minimum of 20 class hours per week.
The course must be offline; online classes are not suitable.
The duration of the course must be no less than 7 months.
In the case of a university: the educational institution must have accreditation from the Spanish System of Education (EQAC).
In the case of a language school: the institution must be accredited by the Cervantes Institute.
How Does the Process Work?
Questionnaire

Once your application is submitted, you can legally stay in Spain, even if the validity of your tourist visa has expired.
We will do everything to ensure you are ready by the start of your studies.
