davejonesbkk Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I've been studying on a Thai course at a language school for a few years now, my current course and ED visa expires later this year, the school say I cant extend for another year but I see Walen have 1-10 years on their website so I guess its different for different schools? Can I change? Does anyone know exactly which schools offer what years and how long in total one can be on ED visas for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Some schools can offer a more advanced course of study than others. You can change schools. You just need to be enrolled in a new school and have documents from them to get your new extension of stay (it is not a visa) instead of old school. You will also need a letter from old school stating you are no longer enrolled in their school effective the date you apply for the new extension of stay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davejonesbkk Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 I emailed Walen and they said you can only do a maximum number of 3 years studying Thai on an Ed visa but I can change to studying another language/course such as Chinese or Russian, I find this to be quite bizarre, how do the ministry of education conduct the 1 year interview tests when you want to extend? Anyway, this got me thinking what courses are available and where for Ed visas? Is it only languages you can study? I know there are ones for Muay Thai at some places.

ubonjoe Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 There are sub forums on the education forum where you can find info on other courses of study, Go to: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/forum/180-education/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
