Can a US college student study aboard in Spain WITHOUT the long-term stay student VISA for Spain?
Can a US college student study aboard in Spain WITHOUT the long-term stay student VISA for Spain?
My program department and I had a misunderstanding about the "new" VISA regulation, so it may be too late to apply for a student VISA to Spain by now (as I only have less than 1.5 month before departure to Spain). I know that I can travel as a tourist for up to 90 days being a US citizen. My question is whether I am able to still do a "year-long study aboard program" in Spain without having a Student VISA by leaving the country (Spain) at the expiration of the 90 days allowed for tourist and travel to a different country, say France, and stay there for a day or two and come back to Spain? Will this allow me to stay in Spain for an additional 90 days? Does it work this way or does it not? Anything is much appreciate! Cruel honesty is welcome as long as it is constructive and sincere! Gracias!

SPAIN - *Passport required. Visa not required for tourist or business stays up to 90 days. (**90-day period begins when entering Schengen countries). U.S. medical report required for residency, student, and work permits. For additional information, contact the Embassy of Spain, 2375 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20037 (202/452-0100 and 728-2330) or nearest Consulate General in CA (415/922-2995 and 213/938-0158), FL (305/446-5511), IL (312/782-4588), LA (504/525-4951), MA (617/536-2506), NY (212/355-4080), PR (787/758-6090), or TX (713/783-6200).

You'll probably need the visa. Contact the embassy and see what you can do. Better safe than sorry.

What you suggest...exiting the country and returning a few days later....Yes, it has been done, but it is not really legal. Even though it is a bit late call the spanish Embassy and try to sort it out...they may give you the visa in less time then you think. University classes in Spain usually start at the beginning of october, so you may have 2 full months to get your visa... Your study abroad program is presumably for nine months or is it for a full 12 months?? What University are you supposed to attend?.. They might be able to give you advice also... (By the way...how is your spanish?) Depending on which University you will be attending I might be able to assist you a bit more from here, I live in AndalucÃa contact me if you like via e-mail.

Do I need a Visa to go to Spain if I have a French student Visa?
I have a Colombian passport, but I am a legal resident of the United States. I currently have a student Visa for France. Can I travel to other Schengen countries (In this case Spain) without a tourist Visa?

There are no border controls in the Schengen countries. Once you are inside one, like France, you can freely travel around in the others. I had a student visa for Holland and was able to travel to France and Belgium without any additional visa. Even if you dodn't have a visa nobody will stop you because as I say there are no border controls.
2 :
You probably have a category D visa valid for France. Such a visa would allow you to visit other Schengen states for up to 90 days. A category C visa will also allow you to visit other Schengen states provided it is marked “Valable pour états Schengenâ€. The category and validity of your visa should be printed on the visa sticker. Very likely you are allowed to go to Spain, but do not guess. Normally there are no border controls between Schengen states, but if you do get caught in Spain without the correct visa, your visa to France can be revoked.

Can I arrive in Spain before the dates of my student visa?
Can I arrive in Spain before the dates of my student visa?
I would like to arrive in Spain about 6 days before the start of my visa in order to figure out my apartment and living situation. Can I legally do this? If not, can I arrive in Spain as a tourist, leave the country for a few days, and then arrive on my student visa afterwards? I have two US passports (yes, this is legal. I just travel a lot), but I don't know if there is a certain amount of time that must pass before I can return to the country.

Your passport should be stamped with the visa. Call the people you bought your visa from and see what they have to say, this will not be the first time they have been asked this question. It is always best to talk the visa people direct rather than taking advice from a third party.
2 :
In the Schengen-Handbook which provides details about the implementation of the new EU visa code you can read: A visa applicant who has been issued a Spanish national long stay visa but not yet travelled to Spain may be issued a uniform (or LTV) visa to cover any short stay in any other Member State preceding his stay in Spain. http://ec.europa.eu/justice_home/fsj/freetravel/visa/docs/c_2010_1620_en.pdf ..[see page 65] Based on this provisions I don't see any problems that you enter before your student visa starts for Spain. U.S. passport holders can enter the Schengen territory without visa for up to 90 days as tourist.
3 :
You already have a visa and you have been instructed as to the dates you may enter. You can go when your visa says so. end of story. Gerd's comment, note "any OTHER Member State..." not Spain.

Can I get a student Visa for Spain w/out making an appointment?
I am trying to get a student visa for Spain and the consulate in my state does not issue visas, so I have to go to Miami. But the problem is that I can't go to Miami due to finances and school. People have told me that I can mail my passport and documents to the consulate. However, the consulate told me that I must make an appointment. Are there any services in Washington, D.C. where I can mail my passport and other documents to get a student visa?

You must apply for the visa at the Spanish consulate general which covers the state you are residing in. You must make an appointment and either apply in person or by a legal representative. From a Spanish Consulate website: VISA APPLICATIONS CANNOT BE ACCEPTED BY MAIL, NOR RETURNED BY MAIL Student visas must be applied for in person or by a legal representative who presents his/her identification and a written notarized authorization from the applicant. The authorization must indicate the name and passport number of the applicant and the name and document number (e.g. driver’s license number or passport number) of the person dropping off the application. Study Abroad Program Directors and/or Coordinators may request authorization from this Consulate to act as legal representatives for their whole group of students. Priority will be given to those visa applications when submitted in a group by a program representative, provided the applications are presented more than one month prior to the departure date. STUDENT VISAS MUST ALWAYS BE PICKED UP IN PERSON BY THE APPLICANT.

I have been in Spain with a 6 month student visa but want to travel Europe after. Do I need a new visa?
I have been studying in Spain and my 6 months on my student visa runs up in mid-July however I was planning on traveling until the end of July. Since Spain is part of the Schengen agreement does that mean when my six months are up I have to leave Spain or all Schengen countries? Does the allowed 90 day period of travel within Schengen countries start when my student visa runs up?

You need an exit stamp on your passport which shows that you have left the Schengen zone latest on the expiration date of your visa. Hence you have to depart to a country outside of the Schengen agreement. http://dc.the-netherlands.org/Services/Consular_services/Visa/US_citizens/Traveling_to_the_Netherlands/Tourist_and_Business_Visa_for_the_Netherlands_Schengen/See_also/Map_of_Schengen_countries .. http://www.axa-schengen.com/en/schengen-countries .. There is no waiting time to re-enter the Schengen zone as tourist. The 90 days of stay within a six months period only applies for visa-free stay as tourist/visitor or for doing business. http://www.bfm.admin.ch/content/dam/data/migration/rechtsgrundlagen/weisungen_und_kreisschreiben/weisungen_visa/vhbI/visahandbuchI-e.pdf ..

It depends on what country you are from and the agreements your country has with the EU. In most cases, yes you can travel within the EU. Again--best to check first. There are places for online info. Search for the embassy website of your country and go to the travel/visa info page.
2 :
With a long-stay national visa (Type D) for Germany or a residence permit issued in Germany you can travel to all 24 other countries of the Schengen agreement to include Italy, France, and Spain. There are no governmental immigration controls on flights between Schengen countries. You just show your passport/visa/residence permit on check-in or security check, that's it.
