Studying in Switzerland: admission, means of support, limited side work

The FNIA allows a stay for training when the person is admitted to a recognised institution and has sufficient means, including health insurance. The permit is limited to the training. A side job is possible only within the limits set by the authority. This stay does not always count as years toward a C permit. At the end of the studies, remaining in Switzerland to work requires a new permit, not a simple extension of the student status. The SEM and the canton publish the documents required.
