Studying on EEA2

Post by alan87 » Mon Oct 12, 2009 10:56 am

May someone holding an EEA2 resident card enroll to study without a visa (in addition to the eea2 rc of course)? If so, are there any relevant restrictions?

Yes, you can study. The RC gives you the same rights as the EEA national.

Not at all. Not an EU national means international fees benifa. It is the socialist left wing EU that has been spouting tripe.

Once again meats, you're letting your anti-EU agenda get in the way of the facts.

The family member of an EEA or Swiss national who is engaged in economic activity in the UK, is entitled to access to the same educational institutions as UK nationals - and at the same cost.
Directive 2004/38/EC, Article 24 wrote:Equal treatment
1. Subject to such specific provisions as are expressly provided for in the Treaty and secondary
law, all Union citizens residing on the basis of this Directive in the territory of the host Member
State shall enjoy equal treatment with the nationals of that Member State within the scope of the
Treaty. The benefit of this right shall be extended to family members who are not nationals of a
Member State and who have the right of residence or permanent residence.
2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, the host Member State shall not be obliged to confer
entitlement to social assistance during the first three months of residence or, where appropriate, the
longer period provided for in Article 14(4)(b), nor shall it be obliged, prior to acquisition of the
right of permanent residence, to grant maintenance aid for studies, including vocational training,
consisting in student grants or student loans to persons other than workers, self-employed persons,
persons who retain such status and members of their families.
