RizRahim Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Hi guys, Need some advice regarding ED Visa. Im ready to apply now and have gone through a list of schools. Please kindly advice which is better; a private or a proper university? And are they anyone on ED Visa? How was your experience? Thank You Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Do you want to study or just obtain ED extensions of stay? University study can be done at both private and government facilities and both can be good. But what most people are talking about is private dedicated subject schools (mostly language) which are often set up with primarly purpose of making money from those wanting to extend with the least effort for them or students (so course requirements will not be very high).

RizRahim Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hi Lopburi, Thanks for the prompt reply. Im looking at both to be honest. I really want to study Thai language and learn the culture here. I need to know the language in order to communicate with my customers in the future as my family runs a business with Thai people. I dont mind paying the high course fees for the ED provided by Private School but are they reliable and serious about teaching people on Thai language. I know many are in this game for the money. Regards, Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayned Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 There is another post currently runnig "ED Visa 1 year do you pay money every 90 days". There are two peolple that have posted that have been going to Thai language schools for over 2 years, one to Walen and 1 to Pro Language. You should PM them and get their opinions regarding the schools. Before you sign up with anybody, sit in on one of their classes for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visarunner Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 usually with a Language schools you will get only 3month extensions at a time, each extension is THB1,900.- A course at a University will give you a extension of stay as long as the course is on.

MacWalen Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) Great observation lopburi, I wonder how many schools would still be in business if all of a sudden there were no more ED visas. Walen School - more power to you. Edited March 4, 2012 by MacWalen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what about that guy that was protesting outside your office recently saying you would not refend his money ?? Please learn facts first. Of course we would refund his money. He just needed to present a medial certificate. We have thousands of students so we would not risk our business. But if someone does not like us that is indeed great news, isn't it? Judge without knowing facts, very immature and unwise I say. Edited March 4, 2012 by MacWalen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
