TLDR : Answer Summary

This post discusses the process and requirements for obtaining an Ed visa for studying at a university in Thailand. The user is set to arrive on August 12 and inquires about applying for the visa once in Thailand, the duration of stay upon arrival, and the necessity of admission documents from the university. Comments clarify that international students might not need to exit Thailand for their visa processing, and mention the 30-day Visa Exempt Entry for Filipinos.

Sir, I have read an article that international students at Thai Universities may not need to exit the country upon processing of the ed visa, is it true?

Maybe, but check with your university to see if they can do it in country or send you out of the country.

ASK them, without the Visa you can not stay in Thailand to attend classes for 4 years. You need their papers to apply for the visa.

Seeing you're from the Philippines you will get 30 days Visa Exempt Entry. The University may have the option for you to apply inside Thailand but I would ask them before you make your way over here.

You apply for a Visa at a Thai Embassy or Consulate before you go to Thailand. If you're going to study at a University for a 4 year course the University will send you all the papers needed to apply for this ED visa.
