See the exact semester dates and deadlines on the program page.

Accommodation

ULACIT’s central campus does not offer traditional student residences like on-campus dorms. Students are recommended to live in one of the housing programs: Homestay or Selina Hostels. ULACIT will contact all our students and ask about accommodation choices about 1-2 months before the semester starts and provide more information about the accommodation options.

Student Visa

We recommend you contact the Costa Rican embassy in your home country for the most up-to-date information since visa regulations change frequently and often without prior notice. Applying for a visa is different from country to country, sometimes even from one official to another. Beyond Abroad recommends that students take care of the visa well before departing for the destination.

Check the latest updates about applying for visas, the required documents, as well as the opening hours of the embassy’s website or by calling the embassy directly. Embassies are open according to the public holidays of the country they represent, as well as the holiday of the country where they are located.

Many nations including European citizens are entitled to travel to Costa Rica for 90 days as a tourist without a visa. This is recommended for students studying in Costa Rica for one semester as it might take longer than 6 months to finalize the student visa procedure in Costa Rica.

STUDY IN CUBA

Cuba is one of the most musically diverse countries on the planet. Studying at Cienfuegos University in Cuba offers you the unique chance to explore Cuba and to study in a tailormade program for study abroad students, fully taught in English and based on the curriculum of Cienfuegos University. The University presents a teaching method that demands the student’s active participation in their own learning and development process.

See the exact semester dates and deadlines on the program page.

Student Visa

You must contact the Embassy of Cuba in your home country for the most up-to-date information since visa regulations change frequently and often without prior notice. Applying for a visa is different from country to country, sometimes even from one official to another. We recommend that students take care of the visa well before departing for the destination.

Check the latest updates about applying for visas, the required documents, as well as the opening hours of the embassy’s website or by calling the embassy directly. Embassies are open according to the public holidays of the country they represent, as well as the holiday of the country where they are located.

The Visa for Cuba is known as the Cuba Tourist Card. To study abroad in Cuba as an international student, you will need a student visa (D-2). During the application process, you must hand in all documents required by your nearest embassy. Please reach out to your nearest embassy and request visa application instructions here.

Accommodation

Cienfuegos University does not offer on-campus accommodation or dormitories. International students look for their accommodation independently on social media and well-known holiday rental websites. You can try looking before you arrive in Cuba, but even better is to wait and look for long-term accommodation once you are in the country.

Some students choose to stay at hostels/hotels for the first week to get to know the other students/potential roommates during the orientation events. If this is your preferred approach, we recommend booking the accommodation for your first days via Agoda. However, we still recommend looking into your long-term accommodation well in advance before your flight. Remember, other students will also be looking for places to stay!
