Study programmes at MCI

Students from third countries pursuing studies in Austria need a "student" residence permit (Aufenthaltsbewilligung "Studierender") and/or a visa for entry. Please read here for further details.
MCI can issue a provisional admission. This enables you to apply for the visa and residence permit at the Austrian embassy of your home country.

The MCI is not able to grant scholarships to its students. The Republic of Austria provides a number of unilateral scholarship programs to foreign students, graduates or professors to study at Austrian universities. For detailed information on scholarships consult the on-line scholarship database GRANTS maintained by the Austrian Exchange Service.

For information in English about accommodation possibilities read here.
MCI cooperates with the student dormitory "Internationales Studentenhaus".
A complete list of student dormitories in Innsbruck can be found here.
The alternative is to look for private accommodation.

Average monthly costs:

Accommodation: € 300-400
Food: € 200
Public transport (within Innsbruck): € 40
Study materials: € 50
Other costs (clothes, administrative costs, leisure time): € 300-400

In total you should calculate about € 800-1000 per month, depending on your personal lifestyle.
