Education in Austria

AustriaS by AES Consulting is a dedicated project built on AES Consulting’s extensive experience in residence permit advisory and Family Office support. Over the years, we have seen that education is one of the most reliable pathways for relocation and long-term integration in Austria. Unlike other relocation scenarios, education is a long-term investment that retains its value and opens up broad opportunities for the future.

Within the AustriaS project, we guide students through the entire journey — from choosing a field of study and university to settling in Austria. Our team works in close collaboration with lawyers and notaries in Vienna and maintains direct communication with universities and public authorities, ensuring accuracy and control at every step. We focus exclusively on Austria, offering solutions designed with long-term outcomes in mind.

Why Austria

  • High-quality education across a range of formats — from traditional European universities to programmes with an American-style academic structure
  • Universities with strong reputations and international recognition
  • Admissions are based on a well-structured application strategy — not just academic grades
  • English-taught programmes with realistic entry requirements
  • Significantly lower tuition fees compared to the US and the UK
  • The opportunity to work during studies and gain professional experience
  • A central European location with access to international career opportunities
  • A safe and comfortable environment for living, studying, and long-term development

How the Process Works

Applying to study and relocating to Austria is a structured, sequential process that includes:

  • choosing a field of study
  • admission preparation
  • visa and student residence permit guidance
  • relocation and accommodation arrangements
  • adjustment to life in Austria
  • optional access to internships through AES Consulting’s international network for highly motivated students

A key milestone in this process is obtaining a student residence permit, which provides access to education, part-time work during studies, and future career opportunities in Europe, as well as a pathway to permanent residency.
