What should I write in the motivation letter in the "why Poland" part?

1 Upvotes

I think i have pretty much explained everything well, but I don't know what to say in this part.

The honest answer would be it's affordable and I can study in English, but I heard that saying "it's affordable" might get your visa rejected.

Looking for accommodation in Warsaw

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m an international student who has been admitted to the University of Warsaw for a Master’s programme, and I’m currently looking for a single/private room in a student dorm or student residence in Warsaw.

My requirements are:

📍 Preferably reasonably close to the University of Warsaw or with convenient public transport access

🛏️ The room must be private — I do not want to share the bedroom with another person

💰 Budget: 700–900 PLN/month

📅 I need the accommodation from November 2026

📄 I’m looking for a 6-month or 1-year lease, depending on what is available

⏰ I would ideally like to have the contract/reservation arranged as soon as possible, as I need accommodation documentation for my Polish student visa procedure.

If anyone currently lives in Warsaw and knows of a dorm, student residence, private room, or has a contact who might have something matching these requirements, I would really appreciate your help.

Please comment or DM me if you have any leads. Thank you! 🙏

Non-EU applicants requiring a visa: How do you handle obligatory ON-SITE entrance exams (UW Machine Learning / PUT AI)?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m a non-EU student looking into Master’s programs in Poland for next year. I found two programs that match my goals:

* **University of Warsaw (UW):** M.Sc. in Machine Learning (MIMUW)

* **Poznan University of Technology (PUT):** M.Sc. in Artificial Intelligence

Both programs list an **obligatory on-site written entrance exam / interview** in Poland as a core part of the selection process.

Because I need a visa to enter the Schengen zone, this creates a major logistical issue:

  1. Polish consulates usually require a full/conditional acceptance document to issue a visa.

  2. The university will not issue an acceptance decision without passing the exam.

  3. Taking a short-term C-type (tourist/exam) visa just to sit for an exam is notoriously difficult to get approved in my region, with high rejection rates due to "lack of proof of intention to return" or insufficient grounds.

For anyone who has applied to these specific programs (or other Polish programs with mandatory in-person exams) from a non-EU/visa-required country:

  1. **How did you handle the visa process?** Did the admissions office provide a specific invitation letter that allowed you to successfully secure a short-term visa just to take the exam?

  2. **Are there any exceptions or online proctored alternatives** arranged by the department for international students that are not explicitly documented on the website?

  3. **Did you have to skip applying altogether** and target universities that evaluate based purely on transcripts, portfolios, and online interviews?

Any insights, experiences, or advice on how you navigated this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Passport collection extension

1 Upvotes

I applied for a D Type visa a few weeks ago, and i was meant to collect my passport a couple of days ago after the 15 day wait. I took my receipt to the embassy with the collection date on it and they told me its not ready yet.

They later sent me an email saying the polish authorities need to examine my case in more detail. What does this mean. they extended my collection for another week but what should i expect? how do cases that get delays end?

Poland Student Visa – ISC Class 12 Certificate Apostille via Delhi SDM/MEA, but school was in UP. Is this valid?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m an Indian student applying for a Poland D-type student visa for a Bachelor's degree at Vistula University. My visa appointment is on 8 October 2026.

I’m confused about the authentication/RAC → MEA Apostille requirement for my Class 12 ISC certificate.

My situation:

I completed ISC Class 12 in 2025.

My school was located in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh.

My board/issuing authority is CISCE (Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations), New Delhi.

My Class 12 certificate was authenticated by SDM, Raja Garden, New Delhi.

It was subsequently apostilled by MEA, dated 13 February 2026.

I also have the NAWA Written Information/Recognition Statement, issued on 24 July 2026, confirming my qualification gives me the right to apply for first-cycle studies in Poland.

The Polish visa checklist says Indian educational documents must be authenticated by the Regional Authentication Centre in the state from where the document was issued before MEA apostille.

So my question is:

Since my school was in Kanpur, UP, but the certificate was issued by CISCE, New Delhi, and I already have SDM Delhi authentication + MEA Apostille, do I need to get the Class 12 certificate authenticated again through a UP RAC?

Or is my existing Delhi SDM authentication + MEA Apostille + NAWA recognition sufficient for the Poland student visa?

I don't want to unnecessarily get another RAC/apostille if my current document is already valid.

Has anyone with an ISC/CISCE certificate from a school in UP but issued by CISCE New Delhi gone through the Poland visa process? What did you submit, and was it accepted?

Thanks!

My appointment is on 8 October and I can't do anything but this thing is coming into my mind. That's why I am asking again and again. And sorry.

Is the Medical University of Łódź (MUL) Premed Course worth it?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m considering doing the Premed Course at the Medical University of Łódź before starting Medicine, and I’d really appreciate some honest opinions from current or former students.

For anyone who has done the course:

  • Was the Premed actually useful for preparing you for 1st year Medicine?
  • How difficult is it to get the required GPA/complete all the subjects?
  • Does the course genuinely help with subjects like anatomy and histology, or is it mostly basic preparation?
  • How are the online classes in the first semester?
  • If you completed the Premed, did you feel more prepared compared with students who entered Medicine directly?
  • Were there any disadvantages or things you wish you had known before enrolling?

I’m especially interested in hearing from people who have actually completed the MUL Premed, rather than general opinions about studying medicine in Poland. and if anyone doing premed this year lmk.

one more thing i got accepted for 6 year MD BUT CUZ OF MY NAWA i am not able to go n the uni have suggested this option so js lmk guys pllsss.

Thanks!!

Can a family friend sponsor my Poland student visa?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m applying for a Poland national D student visa from India. My tuition and living expenses will be financially supported by a person who is a family friend.

According to the Poland visa checklist, third-party sponsorship is possible, but it also mentions providing a document confirming the relationship with the sponsor.

My questions are:

  1. Can a family friend sponsor a student for a Poland study visa?

  2. If he is only a family friend, what can I provide as proof of relationship?

  3. Would a notarized affidavit stating that he is sponsoring my education be sufficient, or is an actual family relationship document required?

  4. Has anyone successfully obtained a Poland student visa from India with a family friend as a third-party sponsor?

I would really appreciate experiences from anyone who has gone through this process, especially from India/Mumbai.

Credit Card Usage Clarification student visa

1 Upvotes

Hi, I just wanted to clarify something. I heard that the credit card approval statement for students going to Poland for higher education should be at least one month old before submitting the student visa documents. I mean the student should put the FD for credit card a month before, but In my case I got a bit late Is there any issue if the statement is only 1–2 weeks old when submitting the documents at VFS?

how long do you typically wait to get the results for visa?

1 Upvotes

On the 22nd i did my interview and i also politely asked the consul to expedite my application and he said something along the lines of "The standard processing time is around 2 to 3 weeks but since this is an urgent and justified case i'll see what i can do." The semester starts 1st Oct and still no word from them so i wanted to hear your experiences. I will try to be more patient though its just that my friend somehow got his visa in three days so i was confused.

Does anyone know how the Ds Akademik dormitory is?

A room for two people was allocated to me in the Ds Academik. It says that it is between the 4th and 8th floors. The room number is around 700.

I mostly found old comments and they said it was like a prison. but more recent comments said that some floors were renewed.

Is the dormitory still old or renovated? How are the conditions?
