All students on the Valencia campus need a student visa unless they are a citizen or legal resident of the European Union, Norway, Liechtenstein, Iceland, or Switzerland. It is recommended that you have your passport ready at least four months before your program start date so you can apply for a visa. It can take several months to prepare your visa application and get your visa, so it is important that you start the process as soon as possible. Follow the instructions on applying for a visa on the Passport and Visa website and email studyabroad@berklee.edu if you have any questions or concerns.

View your financial aid award by visiting Berklee's financial aid portal, NetPartner. You can check the status of your application, view a list of documents we've received from you and a list of the documents still outstanding, and see your financial aid award.

First Year Abroad students are required to live in housing arranged by Berklee. We have secured spaces in the residence micampus. Learn more about your housing residence on the Valencia website.

As a micampus resident, it is important to note that a security deposit of €500 is required from you in August before move-in. This deposit is refundable provided that everything is in the same condition as when you first arrived.

All students enrolled in a program at Berklee’s campus in Valencia are automatically enrolled in MAPFRE's health insurance coverage program, specifically designed for Berklee Valencia students. This coverage cannot be waived.

Additionally, all Valencia students are automatically enrolled in and charged for the Berklee SHIP (School Health Insurance Program) as required by the State of Massachusetts. Students may waive participation in SHIP by demonstrating they are enrolled in a health insurance plan that meets the requirements of their program.  

Review information 

All entering and transfer students must submit a completed Berklee Entering Student Immunization Form to Magnus Health, Berklee’s provider for collecting, managing, and tracking immunization information.
