Rotation 1 (Starts in Seville)

Spanish Visa Steps and Information

If your program begins in Spain, you will need to apply for a Spanish Visa. 

The visa processing fee is $200.00 and will be applied to your student account.


Step 1: Complete the visa application and collect all required documents by May 3.

Please use the Spanish Visa Application and Checklist as it contains details regarding each requirement. We can only accept completed application packets (this includes your passport) so make sure the appropriate forms are notarized and you’ve made all the necessary photocopies (we can help with the photocopying if need be). Follow the checklist exactly and you shouldn’t have any issues!
