Use the 90-day boundary to identify the study route
A short Schengen stay is generally bounded by the 90 days in 180 rule; study exceeding 90 days should not be handled as tourism or short-stay logic. Use the Spanish Foreign Ministry and current Beijing consular information for the real course, school, stay length and passport.
For longer study, check the national-visa and school evidence route
Longer study normally requires checking the national-visa or relevant study-residence route. Acceptance, course intensity, dates, housing, medical insurance and funds must follow the current consular checklist; do not infer amounts, appointments or work rights from old posts.
One document set should explain one genuine plan
Course aim, existing Spanish level, city, campus, housing, sponsor and plan after completion should match. Funds are not merely a balance display: identify who pays tuition, housing, flights and daily costs and the source of material deposits.
Submit against the competent consular checklist
Use the responsible district's official list to check passport, education or work timeline, translations, signatures, insurance and document validity. Appointment, further-document, legalisation or biometric requirements may change, so follow the official instruction on submission day.
Recheck after grant and on entry
Before travel, recheck the visa page, course start and documents to carry. Post-entry steps and address obligations for longer study follow the local official channel and school written guidance, not a guide.
