• Visa and residency regulations are the responsibility of the different States, and the designated authorities are the only bodies that take any decisions concerning visa and residency procedures. While at Boom Studies we work closely with the local authorities to have the proper updated information available for everyone, regulations may change without prior notice and Boom Studies cannot be held responsible for these situations that are totally out of our control. It is important that students understand these situations and have flexibility to adapt their plans accordingly.
• All students must have an insurance policy active at all times, as medical expenditures can be hefty in other countries, and we never know when an emergency can occur. At Boom Studies we work with a wide range of insurance providers, and we can recommend different options to the students, nevertheless students are finally responsible regarding the policies’ coverage, inclusions & exclusions. Of course, at Boom Studies we are always available to provide general information about this and all other issues concerning the students’ journey.
