Additional Notes
Spain now requires additional steps in order to obtain a visa.  Students must now obtain an FBI Background Check, prior to applying for a visa.  This has added significant time to the process.  Getting a visa can now take 3 – 5 months.  Please see here for more information on the FBI Background Check required:  http://www.fbi.gov/hq/cjisd/fprequest.htm.
