Student visa for Switzerland

Students coming from member states of European Union and European Economic Area can study in Switzerland without student visa. For studies which last longer than 3 months they will need residence permit. Students coming from third countries who want to study for more than 3 months in Switzerland must have national visa which allows them to enter the country and upon arrival they need to apply for residence permit.
