      Can I apply for a Student visa?

      If you're planning to study in Poland for more than 90 days, you will need to apply for a long-term National Visa (Type D). This visa is essential if you are enrolled in academic programs at Polish educational institutions for undergraduate, postgraduate, or doctoral degrees.

      Additionally, it allows you to participate in language courses, exchange programs, or other long-term educational opportunities. The student visa not only facilitates your stay in Poland but also permits travel within the Schengen Area during your studies, offering a chance to explore Europe while pursuing your education.

      What type of visa will I need? 

      Choosing the right visa for you can be overwhelming sometimes and we want to give you as much student visa guidance as possible. When you’re applying to study in Germany, there are a few different options.

      If you’re an international student and have been accepted at an official university in Germany, you can apply for a German National visa. This will let you study a university programme for 3 months. 

      There are other types of student visas you can choose from, such as the:

      German Student Applicant Visa

      which you’ll need if you’ll have to apply for university in person. You can’t actually study in Germany with this visa - it’s only valid for the university application process.

      German Language Course Visa

      which you can apply for if you want to study a German language course in Germany.
