Question

If you're married, can you study abroad in college with your spouse?

Answer 1

It actually depends. Best to check with the local immigration office in your country.  I understand that each country has specific policies with regard to that.

Answer 2

It actually depends on the school as some wouldn't accept those things. I suggest you start looking for one now.

Answer 3

Absolutley. You have to go through the proper documentaion, so you will be able to attend

Answer 4

It actually depends on the country and not the school. Some countries have a special visa for dependents who wish to join the primary visa holder while they study. The United States is one of these country, the primary visa holder gets and F1 while the spouse gets an F2 visa.

So you should check with the Embassy of the country you are considering to see if this is possible.

However you will have to prove via financial statements that both of you can be supported for the duration of your studies since most countries will not allow dependents to work and the primary visa holder can only work in a part-time capacity and are usually restricted to *where* they can work also.

Answer 5

don't see any reason why you couldn't

Answer 6

I see no problem with going on a study abroad program and taking your spouse. I went on a program to England when I was in college, we had to find our own place to live. In that case bringing a spouse would be fine because I wasn't living in the dorm so they couldn't tell me what to do.

Actually for a young married couple it sounds like a great adventure.
