(Study in Italy/Visa) Will I be able to get a student visa for Italy if I am only taking two courses?
I have searched many sites for this visa information and they never specify if you can get a student visa when you are only taking 1-3 classes and will not be a full time student! does anyone know? I will appreciate any answers or resources.....Thank you...

In general, obtaining a student visa for studying in Italy is a surprisingly long, drawn-out, and cumbersome process as compared to getting visas for other countries. Italian authorities are relatively stringent in handing out visas. If you're planning on studying in Italy definitely get the visa process started quickly, because you really don't know how many delays there will be and how long it will take. If you need information on obtaining a student visa for Italy a good online resource is www.gullivergo.com. The site has helpful tips as to which Italian consulates you can contact in your area and which type of Visa you'll need to get. There are also discussion forums where you can talk to present and past study abroad students to find out how many courses are required for a student visa. With most study abroad programs there are temporary visas available. Good Luck!

I believe so, but run it by your embassy. The laws right now are pretty tight.
2 :
Niagara Falls boarders upstate New York as well as Canada, so you can conceivably go see it without leaving the states
3 :
Yes. Italy is one of the countries whose citizens are not required to obtain visa to visit Canada. You must, however, have your travel document to U.S. properly endorsed so you could return to U.S. without a glitch.
4 :
Yes, but easy access between USA and Canada will change by 2007. You should go sooner than later. You can see the falls from New York side since it lies between USA and Canada.
5 :
only if the student visa have the mention m or multiple entry, if not check Niagara falls from the us

How much time can I spend in Italy, student visa issues?

How much time can I spend in Italy, student visa issues?
Next year I'm planning on studying in Florence with my colleges foreign exchange program, but I'm not very clear on when I'll be allowed back to Italy, or if I'll be allowed to go with the program at all. I normally spend my summers in Italy with my fiancé (who is an Italian citizen), but I stay within the basic Schengen Agreement tourist time (90 days). What I don't know is after I come back from spending those 90 days, will I be allowed to get a student visa to return first semester? It would still be withing the 180 day period, but since visa's allow you to stay longer, I'm not sure whether it would be allowed. Also if it was allowed, would the time compound? Would I have to wait even longer than 90 days to return again on regular tourist time? Oh and I'm a United States citizen.

The Student Visa is completely different to entering Italy under the Schengen visa waiver scheme. For one trip you will be a tourist, for the other a bona fide student and that is how Italian immigration will see it. The 90 days out of every 180 days only applies to entering Italy as a tourist. Once you enter on the student visa this will supercede the Schengen tourist visa. The length of your student visa depends on the amount of time you will be studying in Italy. Just fill in the student visa form from the Italian Embassy's website, and make sure you've provided all the requested information. The Embassy will then issue a visa allowing you to stay in Italy for the time it takes to complete your course. Once your study is finished, you should be able to re-enter Italy as a tourist. By the time you've finished your course, your original 180 will be up anyway.

I dont think so as Uk is not in the euro shengen zone. The visa for uk is normally valid for uk only and you need a seperate visa to go to other countries in the shengen zone.
2 :
A visa for the UK is only valid FOR THE UK! US citizens do not need a visa to visit Italy as a tourist for up to 90 days.
3 :
As a US citizen you are allowed enter to all the countries in the schengen zone without a visa. (visa waiver program)

yes

You shouldn't need it, as both UK and Italy are members of the EU. I didn't understand what nationality you are, but if you are from outside the EU and you have a valid visa for living in the UK, that same visa allows you to come to Italy too. I suggest that you check this by asking your country's or Italy's Embassy in the UK. Enjoy our beautiful country!!
4 :
if you are there more than 90 days, yes
5 :
Depends on nationality contact the italian embassy in london and they will tell you or if you call a travel agent they have a guide book which covers all countries
