Spanish study visa

There are two main types of studying in Spain: public and private. Studying abroad at public expense is a government agreement signed between China and the West. Spain provides a certain number of scholarships to China students every year, and the Ministry of Education is responsible for external contacts. Studying abroad at one's own expense means that international students contact Spanish universities on their own, and the required materials refer to the requirements of other European countries. However, in principle, Spain does not apply for self-funded study visas. If there are special circumstances, it must be accepted by interviewing consular officials, but the following conditions must be met:

6. Health certificate. External contacts are generally in the form of letters, which can be written directly to relevant Spanish institutions or scientific research units, departments and tutors. In the first letter, you should attach your resume and training plan and explain the purpose of studying in Spain. If the other party requests to provide the above other information, it shall attach it. If the other party agrees to accept it, a formal invitation letter will be sent, which should indicate the admission time, study period and financial burden. After the embassy accepts the visa application, the applicant needs to fill in three visa forms and provide four photos, and then the embassy will report the passport and the above materials to the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. After passing the examination, you can apply for a visa. The Spanish Embassy will issue an entry visa for a stay of three months, and you need to apply for a residence permit at the local police station within three months after entering the country.
