Students

In general, these application are processed in the country of origin before coming to Argentina provided that it is related to a Degree studies (which entails attending classes at the University and getting a degree after 4 or 5 years). The applicant should follow specific instructions provided by the Consulate which include enrolling with the University before placing the application.

If studies to be held are for less or up to 3 months, then with a tourist visa for 3 months will be sufficient. If studies are for 6 months, just by leaving the country and returning the student will renew the tourist visa for a new period of 3 months. If the student would like to be able to work legally, open a bank account and gain legal residency, studies must be of at least for one year.
ARCA does not take this kind of applications since the Universities in Argentina have their own procedures and take care of foreign applicants themselves.
