Study in Greece

Post new topic

Hi everyone!

My husband and I would like to go study in Greece for a year. We would both be doing our Masters degree and are currently looking at American universities in Athens. I'm French and from what I have read it is pretty easy to enter Greece as long as you are a European citizen. However, he is American and it looks a little more complicated for him to enter the country.

Has anyone had a similar experience? How difficult is it to come study in Greece? What is living in Greece like?

Thank you all for your responses!
