Can I start my 9 month study program 5 days before my 3 month student visa expires? [closed] - Close-Up Shot of a Black Alarm Clock beside a Calendar

I received a student visa from Switzerland on 17th October 2017, which is valid for three months. I plan to start January 11th 2018. The visa is valid until January 16th 2018. Will I encounter any problems due to my starting dates. My MBA program is for the duration of 9 months.

The visa I was given is 3 months which is standard Visitors Visa. I hope I won't encounter problems.

What other documents will the immigration officers ask for to prove I'm for study.



Best Answer

The visa I was given is 3 months which is standard Visitors Visa. I hope I won't encounter problems.

That means your long term study on that visitor visa will be illegal, plain and simple.

Apply for the proper visa which covers the period of your study or which is extendable to that effect. A tourist visa does not allow long term study.
