Do I need a Visa to participate in Veritas Abroad programs?

Veritas Abroad program countries vary greatly in their requirements for participants. While some participants may be required to obtain a student visa, others may be able to stay in the host country for the duration of their program as a tourist. The application process for a student visa also varies by country. Depending on the foreign consulate, Veritas Abroad participants will either have to apply for the visa in person, via an online application, or by mailing in all application materials. Veritas Abroad will inform all participants if a student visa is required or optional for their particular program. For specific visa requirements for Veritas Abroad program countries, please refer to the U.S. State Department's web page, located at: http://travel.state.gov or refer to the Embassies and Consulate Resources page (Helpful Resources link) to find foreign consulate contact information and relevant student Veritas Abroad requirements.
