NO you cannot study anywhere else other than in Poland on a Polish visa. If you want to study in Sweden, then get a visa for Sweden.

Yep, to add to this - those category D visas are not 'Schengen' visas - they're still national-only visas. They haven't harmonised the long term visas across the Schengen zone yet (and perhaps never will, which is why you see the Straż Graniczna pulling non-whites).

I've no idea if you can apply for a Swedish visa in Poland, but I don't see why not.

Best bet is to contact the Polish embassy (or whoever Poland has an agreement with) in your own country and ask there. I don't see why not, but you'll have to meet the immigration restrictions for that country.

Whatever you do, don't attempt to travel in other Schengen countries without a valid visa.

z_darius: You want to study in a Scandinavian country so you get yourself a Polish visa? You wouldn't happen to try and study logic, would you? ...now that made me laugh. No, not logic, but another ......ology, which tells you that you can apply for a visa to America and go and visit China.

the best bet would be going to the swedish consulate in poland and finding out.

i got my uk working holiday visa for the uk whilst in poland from the australian/british consulate in warsaw. a process that takes 3-4 weeks in australia took 3 hours.

Why did you obtain a visa for Poland if you don't want to study there?

I will repeat this - do not attempt to enter Sweden on the D visa in order to study. It's valid for 5 days (I think...) to transit through Schengen countries to reach Poland - but it isn't valid for EU travel. You'll need a Swedish/Norwegian/Danish visa for that, or a short term Schengen visa.

If you're caught, then as a visa national, you'll probably face a lengthy ban from Schengen.
