    Geneva applicants

    For students that choose to pursue an internship during the summer, Non-EU citizens must apply and receive a work visa to intern in Switzerland. Most students participating in internships lasting less than 12 weeks will need to apply for their visa in person at the Consulate in their jurisdiction, which may require travel.  Students participating in internships that are 12 weeks or longer are typically able to apply for their visa through mail at their local Swiss Consulate.  For more information on your closest Swiss Consulate, please visit the Swiss Visa website.
