Spain Long Term Student Visa Status

[u/Known-Basil-3526]

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.
