Temporary Residence Permit for Study (first permit filed abroad; entry clearance issued on approval)Study in Slovenia
from India
Non-EU students typically €2,000–6,000/year at public universities; medicine ≈€12,000/year. Applications are filed from India via Embassy of Slovenia, New Delhi — residence-permit and long-stay D visa applications lodged in person by emailed appointment (consular.newdelhi@gov.si); VFS handles only short-stay Schengen visas — and everything from admission to the visa appointment can be handled for you, end to end.
Work while studying
Students may work via Student Service (študentski servis) referral contracts without a separate work permit; no fixed national hourly cap, but enrolment must stay active
Intakes
October only (enrolment closes September)
Visa processing
1–3 months via the Embassy + Slovenian administrative unit; Slovenia itself warns permits are often not ready by 1 October — file by June–July
After you graduate
9-month residence permit after graduation to seek employment or start a business (not further extendable)
The money, honestly
What you spend.
What simply stays yours.
Most agents blur these two numbers together. The visa asks you to show funds — that money remains yours to live on in Slovenia. What you actually spend on the visa process is far smaller.

Slovenia student-visa FAQs
How much money do I need to show, exactly?
€507.43 per month of intended stay — the official figure. Bank funds, a scholarship or a parental support declaration all qualify; the money stays yours.
Is there a February intake?
No — Slovenia has a single October intake with September enrolment. Miss it and you wait a year, so file the permit by June–July.
Can I work while studying?
Yes — via študentski servis referral contracts, without a separate work permit. Many students fund living costs this way.
Can I travel Europe on a Slovenian permit?
Yes — Slovenia is in Schengen; the residence permit allows travel across the area within the 90/180-day rule.
