瑞士留学签证

The Swiss government requires all students who are not EU citizens to obtain a student visa before arriving in Geneva. The Office for International Study (OIS) will facilitate a group visa application process for students studying on the Joint BA/MA program during the fall semester of their senior year.

学生 must submit a copy of their passport valid six months beyond the end of their studies in Geneva with their program application. Proof of application for a passport or proof of passport renewal such as a receipt will be accepted.

学生(U.S. citizens, permanent residents and international students with valid U.S. visas) will submit all the required visa application materials to the OIS by the stated deadlines. The OIS will in turn submit the visa application materials to the Swiss Consulate in New York approximately 14 weeks in advance of the program start date. Processing may take up to eight weeks. 学生 will be notified by the Swiss authorities in Geneva when their visa applications have been approved. 学生 will then send their passports to the New York Consulate for visa issuance.

学生 will be responsible for obtaining the appropriate visa to 返回 to the Graduate Institute for the completion of the masters degree portion of the program.

需要考虑的事项

Because students must send their passports to the New York Consulate for about a week in late July or early August, international travel during this time is strongly discouraged. 学生 who arrive in Switzerland without student visas will have to 返回 to the U.S. 获得学生签证.

Please note that students who stay in Switzerland during the summer are responsible for all living expenses, 签证要求, 医疗保险, 等.
