 New Αnnouncement for the applicants in need of a VISA

Non-EU nationals who intend to reside in Athens, Greece, during their studies may be required to obtain a visa before arrival. If you belong to this category and haven't submitted your application yet, you can still do so, within the second application period, at the latest by 15 September 2024.

If you are accepted, you will receive a CONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE LETTER to proceed further. Upon payment of the first installment of the tuition fees, a UNCONDITIONAL LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE will be issued, allowing you to proceed with the visa application. If the visa is not obtained, the payment will be refunded.

You are advised to contact the nearest authorized Greek Embassy or Consulate in your country to obtain information regarding the required documents and the formal application procedure. To ascertain whether a visa is required to enter Greece, you may also consult the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.  A detailed practical Guide for Visa and Residence Permit as well as other information for incoming students to Greece are available here. Additionally, you should visit the NKUA International Students Support Unit's website, accessible here.
