Requirements for Student Visa

No visa is required for studies to enter Greece if you possess a valid passport from an EU Member State, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland. Nevertheless, applicants from countries outside the Schengen zone need a student visa. For more information, see here. The length of time needed to acquire a student visa differs from country to country. For this reason, the applicants from countries outside the Schengen zone are encouraged to communicate, as soon as possible, with the Greek Embassy in their country for information on the procedure and also on the time needed for the conclusion of the process. For a list of the necessary documents, see here. All complete applications from countries outside the Schengen zone will be processed with priority by our selection committee. Therefore we strongly encourage you to submit, as soon as possible, a complete application, in case you are interested in the ΜΑ in Greek and Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology.
