    • Eligibility
      To get a student visa, students must be accepted to a school, enrolled, and able to support themselves financially while studying. 
       
       
    • Validity
      A student visa is usually a multiple entry visa that's valid until the student completes their studies. 
       
       
  • Types
    There are different types of student visas, and the type that's right for a student depends on their circumstances. The type of visa may also vary by course level or study period. 
     
     
  • Rights
    Being approved for a student visa doesn't necessarily give the student the same rights as citizens of the host country.
