WORK PERMIT!!!! That's the big words for the international students in Cyprus. We had been dreaming of it since we started our academic career in Cyprus....and finally we got it. Need to enjoy??? I guess no. The "work permit" is still a semi-developed concept. I mean there is no clearcut decision about work permit. The Government has declared giving work permit of 20 hrs/week during college period and 38 hrs/week during holidays. But this law is strictly limited to certain jobs. Students can only work in the gas station, as delivery personnel, housemaid, gardener, and kitchen assistant. No jobs other than specified are allowed for the students. Working in a corporate level or managerial level is still an untouchable dream for the international students. Do you think those jobs justify with the level of education we have achieved in Cyprus? Do you think it's fair that those MBA graduates are working as waiters while their managers are not even a diploma graduates? There is no rule of giving a year working visa after the completion of study? So, if you are thinking to advance in your career, Cyprus is not just a place to be. If you are deciding to live ur life working in these low profile jobs and just hang up with ur MBA, then you are most welcome. However, I suggest you to apply for USA or UK first, because that's where everyone dreams to go from Cyprus. If you are thinking to do that, I think you should not come Cyprus because then you have to pay lots of money, one to come to Cyprus and another to move from here. It's better you choose one destination and you choose it right.

You chose to study here, not try to get to stay under false pretences.

get you education and then apply for residency, don't complain when the authorities are trying to control their borders from people like you.

You want USA / UK, then go, but don't spread lies and BS.

Have a nice day.

Edit: For your and pathetic-baby-in-shit information, there are many post degree qualified GCs who do these menial jobs and they have come from the UK and they can speak Greek, so you don't have a leg to stand on. You know where the door is back to you 3rd world country a?

If the RoC didn't support equal rights you wouldn't have you 50 villas, 10 boats and whatever the hell else you have here. He is not complaining about equal rights (I am all for that), what he is complaining about is that having used the excuse to study here, he can't get to stay and try to bypass the rules as most of them do. I mean come on Baby, surely even you can see that, right?

Litesten here you ungreatfull little brat.

You come to cyprus for the only reason that tuition fees are next to NOTHING compared to Uk and USA. Plus you have the comfort of being on a small island with great weather and an opportunity to work odd jobs like all other students.

what you want is best of BOTH worlds..you would not last 6 months in the UK for the reason that someone like you will not be able to afford the fees and accomodation if you come from a 3rd world country.

ADVICE!! Get your diploma. and go back to your afgan land and help out with the family business. There is NO such thing as the Amercian Dream. especially for you.

YOU ARE LIVING THE CYPRUS DREAM!! DEAL WITH IT.

Good luck
