Study in Mauritius
Mauritius is an Indian Ocean destination offering study opportunities in business, hospitality, tourism, finance, technology and other professional areas.
Visa process
Student visa/residence process starts with admission to a recognised institution, followed by the required immigration application/approval, travel and residence/medical formalities.
Government / visa fees - subject to change
Student visa/residence charges depend on the current government schedule and procedure. Confirm the current amount with the Mauritius Passport & Immigration Office or sponsoring institution.
Financial requirement
Students should demonstrate adequate funds for tuition and living costs according to the current immigration/institution requirements.
Student rules & regulations
Remain enrolled at a recognised institution, maintain valid immigration status and comply with student employment conditions.
Work rights during study
International students have limited part-time work rights subject to current conditions and approved arrangements. Verify the current rule before employment.
After study
Graduates who want to remain for employment generally need an appropriate work/residence route, such as an Occupation Permit, if eligible.

Long-term residence depends on qualifying employment, investment or another eligible route under current Mauritius immigration rules. Graduation alone does not guarantee settlement.
