What is a Study Visa?

A study visa is an official permit that allows international students to live and study in a foreign country legally for a specific period. It provides the opportunity to pursue undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma, vocational, or research programs abroad.

Study visas often also allow part-time work, providing financial support and practical experience while studying. Obtaining a study visa is the first and most critical step in achieving your global education goals.
