Unfortunately, due to Swiss regulations, non-EU citizens over the age of 30 are not eligible for a student visa and therefore won’t be able to join the classes on campus. This rule is provided by the Swiss government NOT by the institute. However, our Masters may be followed online except during exam weeks (January and May): evening classes, CET. We encourage you to consider this option.
