After selecting your study program abroad, your next steps are:

- Secure admission: Pay any required tuition deposit and obtain your official admission letter.
- Apply for a student visa: Use your admission documents (like the CAS for the UK) to start your visa application. Requirements include proof of funds and health insurance.
- Arrange accommodation and finances: Explore housing options and prepare to open a local bank account after arrival.
- Sort health insurance: Health coverage is mandatory for your visa in both Italy and the UK.
- Book travel and prepare for departure: Plan to arrive before your program starts and review local customs and requirements.
- On arrival: Complete any local registrations (such as the residence permit in Italy or university orientation in the UK).
