Dubai questions we get asked in Chandigarh
How does the Dubai student visa work?
Unlike Europe, you do not apply for the visa yourself. The university sponsors it once you accept your offer and pay the deposit. After arriving you complete a medical fitness test and Emirates ID biometrics. The visa is usually valid a year and renewed against continued enrolment.
Are Dubai qualifications recognised in India?
It depends entirely on the institution and the awarding body. A branch campus of a UK or Australian university awards that university's degree. Some Dubai providers deliver vocational qualifications such as BTEC HNDs, which are not equivalent to a bachelor's degree. We check this before you commit.
Can I work while studying in Dubai?
Working requires separate permission arranged through your institution and the relevant free-zone authority — it is not automatic with the student visa. Do not build your budget around part-time earnings in Dubai.
