I am also interested. The only list on the NIA website I could find was out-of-date. All programs were from 2020.

I also created a PDF version of the packet (everything in one document) and had that handy on my phone. DIdn't need it, but feel better knowing I had a copy handy in case I needed to email somewhere or print it again.

Yes. Definitely print your Thai pass and everything you submitted for it.

Can be ordered in Thailand on iherb.com

, agreed. This will be enough.

There are plenty of Thai language schools where you can take language classes and get your visa that aren't universities or 4-year programs. I live on Koh Phangan (the next-door island) and we have two here. I'm sure there are plenty on Koh Samui as well.

I've heard of ED visas that go for 15 months (probably requires an extension and paperwork), the school should know all the details. If not, you could throw a tourist visa in there somewhere to fill it out till you hit 50.

I've found that when you make an effort to speak Thai and become part of the local community you can get things approved that aren't _technically_ the _official_ way of doing things.

I imagine that if you ask around you can find someone interested in transferring US dollars to Baht and you two can do simultaneous transfers to avoid the bank fees. I would have loved to do this with someone when I first moved to Thailand.
