STUDENT VISA
A student visa is required for most countries in order to study in Italy for periods longer than three/six months. Students must obtain the information on visa procedures by their nearest Italian Consulate. To apply for a student visa, students will need a CERTIFICATE OF ENROLLMENT issued by ACCADEMIA RIACI, which should be taken to the local consulate. Visa procedures vary in each country, but please consider a minimum of 30/60 days for it to be issued.
