INFORMATION FOR INCOMING STUDENTS

Specific Information for Students

If you want to study at the school of Art Dionisio Ortiz (EADO), the first step is to check if there is a bilateral agreement between your home institution and EADO in the field of your
degree. Otherwise, you cannot come as an Erasmus student, because freemover/visiting students are not accepted.

Requirements

Between both your home institution and the School of Arts Dionisio Ortiz there should be a bilateral agreement in the field you wish to study in Córdoba. Your home institution must send us your nomination, confirming us that you have been granted the status of an Erasmus student.

Application

After receiving your nomination, the international relations office will check if you can be accepted according to our bilateral agreement and send you an e-mail demanding the following documents:

-Passport or identity card
-European Health Insurance Card or a private medical insurance covering the full length of your stay in Spain

After being accepted, incoming students will receive an email with the instructions to fill in the online learning agreement (OLA). This should be done within 30 days after the reception
of the email.

Medical Insurance

Citizens from countries belonging to the European Economic Area (the 27 countries of the European Union plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) that are entitled to Social Security
in their country of origin are required to apply for the European Health Card. This form is issued by the public health authorities of the different countries mentioned above and entitles holders to healthcare provision in Spain.

See https://ec.europa.eu/social/main.jsp?catId=559

Citizens from countries that do not belong to the European Economic Area should check if there are bilateral arrangements and agreements between their country and Spain in relation to Social Security and medical care. This type of agreement is currently in place only with some Latin American countries including Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Paraguay and Peru. There is also an agreement of this sort in place with the Principality of Andorra. If there is an arrangement or agreement in this regard between your country and Spain, you must process the document with the public health authorities of your country to be eligible to receive healthcare in Spain.

Non-EU citizens from countries without this kind of agreement in place with Spain are required to take out private medical insurance, as they are not legally entitled to access free Social Security in Spain. This medical insurance is essential to apply for a student visa at Spanish consular offices, as well as for the subsequent application for the ‘authorisation to stay for study purposes’ once in Spain. The medical insurance should be valid for the entire stay in Spain. This insurance may be Spanish or foreign and should include repatriation costs in the event of death.

Visa and insurance

Before starting your studies in Europe, you will have to make sure that your paperwork is in order. You should always have valid identification and if applicable a visa corresponding to
your resident status.
