Applying for a Poland student visa? Here’s help!

Poland is a country steeped in history and can be your ideal study abroad destination. The country has more than 450 higher education institutes offering courses in a range of subjects. Students from over 150 countries have made Poland their study abroad destination.

The universities here follow the Bologna system like other European nations.

 Language  Requirement to Study in Poland 

Though international students can enroll in courses taught in English, it is beneficial if they learn the Polish language. This will help them communicate with the local community and get familiar with the local culture.

Tuition Fees and Living Costs 

Tuition fees in Poland starting from 1700 Euros in a year. Accommodation costs like rental rates are reasonable. Living costs that include food, transportation, and social activities are on the lower side here compared to other European countries.

Student Visa Requirements

Non-EU nationals require a student visa to study here. The visa is valid for a period of three months. In order to extend their stay students must apply for a residence permit at least 45 days before their visa expires.

The residence permit is issued for 15 months. You can extend it for a period of up to three years, but it cannot extend beyond the duration of your course.

Working While You Study 

Students from non-EU countries can work here during their course.

You can work part-time and finance your stay in Poland by working part-time.

However, having a valid residency permit to operate would be advantageous. That is required to study in Poland, so you would be able to work part-time.

• Proof of having the required financial resources to cover your educational and living expenses during your course of study
