Studying in Lithuania, from the official sources in our guide
What you can study here
Source: from an official dataset, ETER 2023 (CC BY 4.0). The European data counts broad fields, so some are grouped: business with administration and law, medicine with nursing, health and social care, and social sciences with journalism. The university’s own course list has the exact programmes. Visit their website for the full course list.
Studying in Lithuania
These apply to every international student in Lithuania, including at Klaipėdos valstybinė kolegija / Higher Education Institution. Each figure shows where it came from and when we last checked it.
Money you must show
Half the minimum monthly wage (€1,153 in 2026). Vilnius University states €577 x 12 months + €1,153 for the return.
Vilnius University, visa and residence permit guidance, source re-checked 20 Oct 2026
Visa fee
Degree students need a temporary residence permit, not a visa. A visa centre service fee may apply if you file abroad.
Migration Department under the Ministry of the Interior, checked 24 Sep 2026
Work while you study
From 22 May 2026. The 20-hour cap does not apply during mandatory internships or summer holidays.
TRINITI and ECOVIS summaries of the amended Law on the Legal Status of Aliens, source re-checked 2 Oct 2026
Stay after you graduate
New temporary residence permit to look for work or become self-employed. No work permit needed during it.

The same rules for every institution in Lithuania; Klaipėdos valstybinė kolegija / Higher Education Institution's own programme pages govern the exact dates and scores. Guide checked 24 Sep 2026.
Deadlines and intakes
The main intake is September. Deadlines differ by university, and non-EU applicants usually have an earlier one because of permit timing:
Work backwards from the permit: up to two months in the general procedure, plus the time to get a visa centre appointment and to gather bank statements, insurance and a police clearance certificate (which may need legalisation). Apply by early spring.
Language you need
Lithuania offers a large range of English-taught programmes, especially at master's level. English requirements are set by each university and programme; check the programme page for the accepted tests and scores.
No Lithuanian is needed for the permit. Day to day, English goes a long way with younger people in Vilnius and Kaunas, but part-time jobs outside international companies, dealings with landlords and most public services work better in Lithuanian. Proposals debated in 2025 would have linked family reunification for students to Lithuanian language skills; check the current position if you plan to bring family.
Free for students
Tell us what you want to study. Your request goes to the admissions team or to an adviser who works with them will contact you by email to help with your application. It costs you nothing.
Paying for it
Government schemes for international students coming to Lithuania. Each one sets its own rules on nationality and level.
Student reviews: none yet for Klaipėdos valstybinė kolegija / Higher Education Institution. If you study or studied here, yours would be the first.
Every reviewer confirms their email address with a one-time link, and a person at Studies Multiverse reads each review before it appears. We publish good and bad reviews on the same terms, never edit them, never pay for them, and an institution cannot remove a review by paying us. Reviews sent from the institution’s own email domain are not accepted. Institutions can reply below a review. See our terms.
Get in touch
Studies Multiverse passes your question to the admissions office by email, and they reply to you directly. We do not sell your details to anyone.
