their date of entry within the European Union territory. Other non-European nationals who need a visa to travel into
Schengen Territory must be in possession of a visa issued for education purposes.
Applicants are required to fill in the relevant forms which must include all the requested information and signatures.
Once in Malta, applicants need to request an appointment.
