• An international passport is mandatory not only when obtaining a student visa or coming to Poland, but also for your admission to university.
• Student visa. It is a key document for both admission and arrival in Poland. We describe the whole process of applying for a student visa to Poland here.
• Health Insurance. Some universities also require health insurance, but you will also need it for your student visa, so you can use the same one to apply.

Application deadlines

Private Polish universities typically set standard application deadlines from June to September, and meeting these deadlines is crucial. In addition, some universities offer an early registration option (from March), which can provide advantages in the admission process. This gives you more time to prepare documents and obtain a student visa. Public universities typically have different application deadlines, accepting documents in two stages: April to June and July to the end of August. Therefore, it is recommended to clarify information about such an opportunity in advance at the universities you are interested in.

Choosing a university and program

Defining your priorities, such as the prestige of the university and tuition fees, is crucial for making an informed choice. Additionally, considering factors like location and program of study will contribute to your decision-making process. Make a list of priorities and explore university websites to familiarize yourself with programs of study and admission requirements. Additionally, review student feedback to compare offerings from different universities for a well-informed decision-making process. If you have the opportunity, attending university open days is a great way to learn more about the university and its atmosphere. This experience will enable you to make a more informed choice during the decision-making process.
