Getting a student visa for Spain when I am a NY legal resident?
Hi guys! i am applying to an international academic program in Spain through my college. I'm a little confused though, because I am peruvian but I live in NY (i have a green card). Does anyone know how should I proceed with this? I emailed the spanish consulate but it might talke a while for them to answer back so i wanted to see if anyone could give me an answer sooner. Thank you!

Have you talked to your study abroad office at your college or the International Student office? I know it gets really tricky for students with F-1 and J-1 visas, but I'm not sure about green cards.
2 :
As a green card holder, you are not an American citizen and do not have a right to an American passport. You'll need to use your Peruvian passport to apply for the Spanish visa. Also, if you'll be out of the U.S. for a prolonged period of time (several months), it would a wise idea to check with USCIS about the regulations for maintaining your green card status while you're in another country. Enjoy Spain!

Since you hold a Gren Card you should not have any problem to re-enter the United States after a semester abroad. Should you plan to stay abroad for longer than a year you would need to apply for a re-entry permit through USCIS prior to travel. http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_1333.html .. To study in Spain, regardless of the length of your studies, you will need to hold a Peruvian passport which is valid for at least 3 months beyond your stay in Spain and you will need to get a visa for Spain. It needs to be applied for at the Consulate General which covers your U.S: state of residence. http://www.maec.es/subwebs/Embajadas/Washington/en/MenuPpal/Consulares/Paginas/Consular%20Services.aspx .. For to study for up to 90 days you will need a short stay visa. A long-stay visa is required for longer studies in Spain. SInce student visa applications are forwarded to the authorities in Spain for decision you should apply early in advance. Just read the general information of the Spanish Consulate General in New York. http://www.maec.es/subwebs/Consulados/NuevaYork/en/MenuPpal/DocumentaciónRequisitosparaServiciosConsulares/RequirementsEntrSpainVisas/Paginas/Visas.aspx ..

Look,I´m a Spanish citizen.If you were to come in my house,I would probably charge between 150-200 Euros a week,considering you are under the age of 18 and you would be under my responsibility (at least a little bit).This would be for a room and your own bathroom,which is what you have to ask for if you can (privacy!) http://www.cometomyhome.com/ check the web.It´s a Spanish host web.Quite good by the way. All families hosting teenagers and young people have been supervised Make sure you know where you are going (spooky? Hey,just joking here)

Applications will not be accepted more than 120 days in advance or less than 60 days prior to departure. Visas for student’s dependants (spouse and children under 18 years of age) may be requested simultaneously. Visa processing takes a long time. Please contact us only if you have not received your visa 7 days before the date of your departure. We will need your full name, date of birth and date of departure. For further information contact Study Abroad Program Directors and / or Coordinators may request authorization from this Consulate to act as legal representatives for a group of students (fax 323-938-2502 or email: cog.losangeles.vis@mae.es)

Well, if you're going as a tourist, you don't WANT a student visa. You want a TOURIST visa. And you won't be allowed to stay. If you don't have the proper visa documentation, they might not even let you past customs.
2 :
If you just would like to visit Spain and spend up to 90 days there (you are asking from the US, so that's all you're allowed) you don't need a student visa! Relax....unless you are planning to try to find employment and overstay the 90 day limit, you won't have a problem
