im not understanding..did u say, they didnt give u the visa to italy? if ur from sudan, it is easier to get a visa from ur country...but it depends, because u got the scholarship to italy from india, right? if u got the scholarship to go to italy from india, then it is easier to apply from the indian consulate and they will provide for everything. if ur thinking of moving to italy for work or a better life, then apply in sudan. i know it is easier because i have lived in italy and i know many foreigners who applied from their countries to come to italy. the italian embassy and consulate in sudan, might be more leniant (easy) to let u get in their country...right now, a lot of indians r seeking the opportunity to get to italy, so the competition is very high..its best if u apply from sudan. hope this makes sense to u

Have you hosted a foreign exchange student?

Have you hosted a foreign exchange student?
I'm considering hosting a 17 year old high school student from Italy. I know that I will get more information at orientation, but I'm wondering what kinds of real life experiences some of you might have that you'd be willing to share with me. Unexpected things happening...emergencies...money issues...language/communication problems...and good stuff too, of course! How did the student impact your day-to-day life? How did s/he get along with your children? Did you learn anything from your student? I'm interested in your experiences and your responses! Thank you.

i was an exchange student so i can tell you about that. it was one of the most wonderful things i have ever done my family were lovely and i made some great friends. of course it is sometimes hard. i depends on how long you have your student for? you really need to be considerate of them make sure that they know that if they have a problem you are there to help. put Your self in their shoes and imagine how hard it is to live in a different country without your family. language is hard at first but if you are there to help them learn then that is the best way to over come that.. money i didn't really have problems apart from if you go out as a family make sure that your family doesn't pay for just you and not your student :( but mostly just do it.. it is an amazing experience and you will have a new family member learn lots about your self and the student and one day you might be able to visit them in italy good luck!

I've been hosting for 15 years. Out of those, 13 were fabulous. So, that's pretty good odds! The first thing to remember is that your student is a member of your family and NOT A GUEST. He or she should participate in all your family activities to include chores, visits to grandma, and whatever you do! You should not force them to attend church however if they are not willing. As to money, a high school foreign exchange student comes expecting to pay for all personal expenses and especially medical ones. They should have their own medical insurance and most have insurance that covers other things as well (breakage, accidents, etc.). It's best to get the insurance information as soon as they arrive. This is important: YOU DO NOT PAY ANY MEDICAL BILLS OR SIGN FOR THEM. You can authorize treatment as a guardian but you are not responsible for medical bills. You should not pay for any of your student's school expenses -- text book rental, pay to play, etc. Depending upon your program you may or may not pay for school lunches. The same goes for sports shoes, T-shirts, uniforms, etc. As for other activities, here is how I put it to our host families ... "If you go out to dinner and a movie as a family, pay for your student. If he or she is out on his/her own with friends, they pay for themselves." If you don't have teenagers at home, ask the school counselor or a teacher to find some teens that will "mentor" your student. There are things only teenagers know -- especially at school! Have them take your student shopping for American clothes, introduce them to others, etc. With an Italian, language could be a bit of an issue at first. One trick is to never ask a "yes" or "no" question. They will most likely answer "yes" to be polite and not really know what you said. Ask them to repeat it! Fortunately, Italians learn English easily! Another thing, don't let them be on the computer back home too much. Communicating in Italian will definitely hurt his/her English ability. You may be doing some homework help in the beginning too. We don't have natural children, so the it does indeed affect our life when our kids get here! We go to their athletic events, have friends in the house, yell at them to turn the music down, and make lots of popcorn! But it's a lot of fun. We've also had the fun of going to Europe three times now to visit - a definite plus to the experience. I always try to have a relationship with the student's parents by letter or e-mail as well. That's helpful. Hope that helps some! Have fun!

Is it legal to work while study in Italy, for foreign students?

Is it legal to work while study in Italy, for foreign students?
I ask this because I've seen both yes and no as answers here, in different places. I've been recently accepted in to Florence Design Academy. I can't afford the expenses there if I'm not allowed to work, part-time as a student. The student visa requires a declaration that I would not work during the period of study, but here I've many people saying it's allowed. BTW I'm from India. I've been to an Indian consulate and there I've got the details.

If you violate the conditions of your visa, you can be deported if you are caught. This is a matter of Italian law and I do not know how an Indian Consulate could give official advice.
2 :
We have a common business and tourist visa in Europe (Schengen visa) however the provisions of the national immigration law of the individual countries apply. You may have read that students were allowed to work in the United Kingdom, in France, or in Germany. Italy does not apply to those provisions. A foreign student visa applicant has to forward the following document: Undertaking by the school that the applicant will not work in Italy during the validity of study visa. http://www.vfs-italy.co.in/PDF/CHCKLIST-STUDY-VISA.pdf .. You probably may also have heard that European Union passport holders were authorized to work in Italy; this is based on EU treaty rights. European Union citizen are authorized to live and work in all countries of the union..
