I believe that a student visa entails temporary residency. <BR/><BR/>The problem you will face traveling is that the hotels charge exhorbitant (imho) prices to foreigners. Best to stay in non-governmental hotels where they will let you haggle a bit.Kamran and Torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17472269903227971301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5467559.post-53411737643105044572007-04-06T01:50:00.000+03:302007-04-06T01:50:00.000+03:30Hello Anonymous,I actually know a guy who is going...Hello Anonymous,<BR/>I actually know a guy who is going to Iran tomorrow.

Unless the policy has changed within the last few months (and I don't think it has considering things are getting more tense), an American must hire a government appointed guide for the entire trip. <BR/><BR/>With that being said, I'm actually applying for a student visa. I'm attempting to get into a 3 month Persian/Farsi course at Shomal University in Amol. However, if they tell me I have to have a guide I won't be able to afford it.<BR/><BR/>et, can any Americans travel in Iran alone? Besides people with dual citizenship. <BR/><BR/>If you know about any language schools please let me know.
