Renew my residence permit with an English course?

Hello, I am in a similar situation and I would like to know if you were able to renew with a training course in English, please.

Welcome @Lea28

You should be able to renew if your project is convincing, we have seen many cases. What did you study, and why do you wish to take a course in English?

I have a degree in Biochemistry and Biology obtained in June 2024, but no master’s proposal, and my application with the rectorate still hasn’t received a response from the institutions so far, and I don’t know the closing date of the rectorate. The professional licences I applied for rejected me due to the absence of a company, and the companies I found are very far away and consequently refuse me because I don’t have a driving licence.

I applied for a master’s in bioinformatics and also in health product development. These master’s programmes require a serious language level of at least B1. Something I don’t have, which is why I would like to study English in a centre in person and try again next year.

You must be able to renew your residence permit with the English course. To justify this choice, you need to highlight the fact that you wish to pursue a master’s in bioinformatics, which requires at least a B1 level in English.

You shouldn’t have any issues renewing your residence permit.

Keep us informed of the outcome.
