What to Submit for Visa Application
In order to initiate the visa procedure, please visit the following website, which will provide you all-encompassing information on how to apply for a visa.
Visa procedures might vary from one another in each country. It is in your best interest to inquire with the nearest embassy / consular section of Hungary about the precise steps of applying for a student visa.
You can find detailed information and guidance on the required documents of your visa-application package in the school's Neptun system (902 - "D"-Visa Application Form), which will be availbale for you after a proper registration for a WBS programme. However, if you have any questions concerning these documents, you are recommended to turn to your agent, or directly to the school at an early stage of your application process:
This way you will have more time to prepare the required documents with an appropriate form and content both for the Legal Assistance at WBS and for the Visa Interview at the Consulate.
Please note, that according to Hungarian law, you will need to apply for a student visa (a ‘D’ visa in other words) and for a residence permit for the purpose of study. Please, find HERE a sample list of the supporting documents you will need to submit together with your visa application form and its respective appendix.
A residence permit for the purpose of study for Hungary may be issued to a third-country national:
