VISA INFORMATION
Santa Reparata International School of Art, SRISA - Copyright (c) 2010
OBTAINING A VISA
If you are enrolled in a semester long program at Santa Reparata you will need to obtain a student visa for Italy. This is not necessary for a one-month stay. You will need to contact the Italian Consulate General that serves the region in which you live. Every consulate has specific rules and regulations regarding their visas, you MUST contact your specified consulate. For example, if you live in New Hampshire do not gather your materials from the Consulate General of Miami's list, go to the Italian Consulate General of Boston. The Consulates are very strict and extremely bureaucratic.
