It is still possible to work in Spain without a work permit. This statement is based on our experience placing teachers in Spanish language schools since 2002. 95% of the schools that we send your CV/resume to through our job placement assistance programme still do not care whether you have a work permit or not. This statement is based on the fact that our course graduates are still all getting hired regardless of their status in Spain. This fact sheet is aimed at people that want a value-for-money study abroad package that combines the EBC TEFL course + a Spanish course + a money back guaranteed student visa. The student visa programme EBC offers a complete study programme designed for people that want to spend time studying abroad. The programme combines:

We prefer to concentrate on learning the language so that you can use it to appreciate Spain. You will learn Spanish in a fun and lively atmosphere so that you can enjoy yourself in Spain and get a deeper appreciation of the rich Spanish culture that is

Reservation deposit for the student visa and 1 year Spanish programme: €980. IMPORTANT - OPTION COURIER DOCUMENT DELIVERY 50 Euros We can either surface mail or courier these documents to you. Surface mailing is included in the regular fee for the programme. If you want the documents sent by courier (2 day guaranteed delivery), there is an additional fee of 50 Euros. If you choose the courier service, MAKE SURE that there is someone around at the delivery address to accept the package. The courier service is optional but based on the experiences of some students who took the Student Visa + Spanish programme option, surface mailing is unreliable and there have been several cases where the documents got lost resulting in missed appointments. If you choose to have your documents surface mailed and they get lost, EBC accepts no responsibility if the loss of the documents results in you missing your appointment. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING AT ONCE. In order for us to justify, process and send you your student visa forms, EBC must receive the EBC TEFL course deposit of €325. You must also pay the full fee of the Student Visa/Spanish Programme because the Spanish school cannot send the original documents you need to present at the Spanish Embassy without the full payment for the processing service and original documents couriered to you.

The Spanish school has to present your receipts to the Spanish authorities or they will deny your student visa application. DON'T FORGET - if your visa is denied - you get your €980 back! You won't find a better value-for-money than our TEFL + Spanish + Guaranteed Student Visa programme! Terms and conditions for the Student Visa money back guarantee EBC believes in transparency, which is why we publish our money back guarantee terms and conditions up front. The short version of the terms and conditions is that as long as you have been honest on your student visa application form, there won't be any problems. Please read on for exact details. EBC will refund 100% of your student visa reservation fee subject to the following terms and conditions:
A student visa is only issued in your home country. The definition of Student Visa ONLY covers the issuing of your initial Student Visa in your home country. The extension procedure, application for a part-time work permit under article 90 of the current student visa legislation and any subsequent renewals are NOT covered by the money back guarantee. The money back guarantee does not apply to any problems of any type that arise after your initial student visa has been granted. If you fail to get a student visa, you must inform EBC within 7 days of your rejection. You must mail the original letter of rejection to EBC. EBC will ONLY make a refund if the reason stated on your rejection letter is because of our Spanish language partner school and the study programme. If your student visa application is rejected for reasons related to your personal data including (but not limited to): lack of financial support, undisclosed personal information, false information given to the consulate/ embassy, criminal record, health reasons, accommodation requirements etc.

then EBC will NOT refund your student visa reservation deposit. How do I apply? The first step is to apply for the Madrid TEFL course. You may apply through web page: http://ebcteflcourse.com/aa_apply How do I enrol? After acceptance onto the study programme send your course deposit and student visa + Spanish programme fee. We will then guarantee your student visa programme course place and send you all the documentation you will need to justify your studies abroad. Frequently Asked Questions
What type of visa will I get? You will get a STUDENT VISA. Can I work using a student visa? Yes, Article 90 of the Spanish Student Visa legislation allows for part-time work as long as it does not interfere with your Spanish studies. Can I apply for the visa but not take the Spanish course? No you cannot. You MUST take the Spanish course or you will NOT be able to apply for a student visa. Can I apply for the visa after I start the EBC course? If you want to take the course and then go back home to process the student visa, you can. If you do not want to go home after the course, you cannot. The reason is that you can only apply for a student visa from your home country. If you want to apply for a student visa after you take the course, you will have to go home for 2 to 3 months to apply and get the student visa. When should I apply for the visa? You MUST apply at least 3 months before your course start date. If you don't, then your visa will not arrive in time for the course.

report takes time. In some cases, between 4 to 6 weeks. You cannot attend the appointment you arranged in step 2 until you have all your documents. Make sure the appointment date you arrange is realistic. To speed up the personal document gathering process, EBC recommends that you start ordering these documents as quickly as possible. IMPORTANT 2: After you have attended the appointment at the consulate, Step 7, you will have to wait until the student visa is finally approved. The consulate has to send all your details to Spain for final immigration approval. This process can take anywhere from one to three weeks. Is the visa process guaranteed? Yes, we will refund your student visa fee if the consulate denies your student visa application because the Spanish school and study programme are not acceptable. We have a 100% success rate in getting a student visa for Americans, Canadians, Australians and New Zealanders so it is highly unlikely that you will be rejected. It is important that you understand that you will get a student visa and not a work visa. However, “Article 90 - Work for students or researchers”, means that you can apply for permission to work up to 20 hours a week to cover living expenses. When you attend the appointment at the consulate, make it clear that you are coming to Spain to study abroad. Regardless of your intentions, do not mention anything relating to work or they will deny your student visa application and EBC will not refund your fee. THE BOTTOM LINE: DO NOT delay your decision to take the student visa and Spanish programme until the last minute. As long as you plan correctly and stick to the previously listed instructions, there will be no problems.

Yes, your student visa + Spanish programme fee is money back guaranteed. You will still be able to find work in Spain with or without this visa which is why applying for the Student Visa is aimed at people that want an extended stay in Spain to study Spanish. Cancellation fee If you decide to cancel your student visa application AFTER you have been sent the documentation by our partner Spanish school, there will be a cancellation fee of 150 Euros. EBC will only refund your fee minus 150 Euros. IMPORTANT Legal conditions and restrictions When you arrive in Spain you have 30 days to make an appointment to get your student visa ratified. If you don't do this, your student visa will become null and void after 90 days. We will help you make the appointment. If you fail to make the appointment date and time that immigration gives you, your student visa will become null and void. As long as you attend the TEFL course, attend your Spanish classes and attend the ratification appointment there will not be any problems. If you are granted a student visa and then either:
fail to enrol and/or attend the EBC TEFL course or fail to attend the Spanish classes,
we are obligated by law to inform immigration because someone has fraudulently entered Spain under the guise of a student visa. This will mean that your student visa will be declared null and void once we've informed immigration. No
