EasyUni Staff
It's very important, therefore, to make sure you know the duration of your course before you apply for a visa. The visa issued to you allows you to enter the State once. If you wish to leave for a short while and then return you must apply for a re-entry visa. All students are required to have private medical insurance, either personally or through a group scheme at the time of registration.
