VISA AND RESIDENCE PERMIT
All students who are non-EU nationals and who wish to study in Hungary at a higher education institution must obtain a D5 student visa which contains a valid residence permit for a given period of time. EU nationals must obtain - upon arrival in Hungary - a residence permit allowing them to study in Hungary.
If you are a non-EU national and have a residence permit already, but not one specified for "study, or further study" [tanulás, továbbképzés ], then you will need to obtain a D5 (student) visa before being allowed to register at the ISES.
For more information on the D5 visa requirements check the following website:

HEALTH CARE AND SOCIAL SECURITY
Students studying at the ISES must have valid medical and health insurance for accidents and illness covering the period of their stay in Hungary. While some countries have a bilateral agreement with Hungary (Bosnia-Herzegovina , Bulgaria, Croatia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Norway, Northern Ireland , Romania, Russia, Serbia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan) this agreement only covers the cost of emergency medical assistance and is not accepted as medical insurance by the immigration authorities when students obtain or renew their residence permit. EU nationals can prove health
insurance with the E-111 form; with a valid E-111 they are entitled to the same health care services as Hungarian nationals.
Proof of medical insurance must be shown at the ISES office during the orientation week.
