Lithuania is one of the most popular study-abroad destinations among international students. This Schengen country offers European-standard education at an affordable cost, which is why it is becoming increasingly popular among study-abroad aspirants. However, to obtain legal permission to study in Lithuania, students must secure a Temporary Residence Permit (TRP). This is granted only if applicants perform well in a Migris interview conducted by the Lithuanian Migration Department. Below is a list of probable questions that students may be asked during the Migris interview.
