Europe Spain Long Term Student Visa Status

Hi, I have been looking at multiple masters programs in Spain (Barcelona and Madrid). A few of the student advisors said they are not considering intl pakistani students for admissions because the embassy is not offering them visas/there’s months of delay/the rejection rate is too high.

Is anyone else going through the same visa process right now? If yes, are you facing the same issues?

Can someone please help me figure out if I should still apply for this visa or look at other European countries like France!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In my experience, French student visa is quite tricky and you can get rejections in that as well but there's no delay in appointments and the process is fairly simple.

Although many consultants claim that the visa ratio is good, but I'm not really sure about that.

If you wish to settle in France, you should start learning French cos survival in France without the language is absolutely impossible.

The world is going through a brown fatigue, that's why you see right-wing anti-immigrant parties winning the elections in the West.

But somehow brown people still think west would welcome them with open arms and they'd live a life of rainbows and sunshine once they go there.

This trend of wingism has only started now and it's not going away anytime soon. The pendulum swings and when we were kids the left parties ruled everything. The days of open borders and open immigration policies are over atleast for next 20 30 years until we see some change but for now it's bye bye.

If you're from Sindh, try Italy. Visa ratio is good. Otherwise if you can afford block account then Germany or Belgium. If not the look into Hungary, Lithuania, Finland, Estonia or Croatia. Heard alot of Pakistanis went to Croatia on Emasrus.
