If you’re planning a trip to Switzerland to study and explore, we’ve put together some useful student visa guidance to make the process simpler.
To study in Switzerland, you’ll first need to be accepted at an educational institution. You’ll be asked for proof of this when you come to apply for a student visa.
Once you have this, you’ll either apply for a residence permit or submit a student visa application to the Swiss representation for your country of residence.
