European quality at a fraction of the price
STUDY IN POLAND
Low tuition, EU membership, and a 9-month post-graduation permit to find work — one of Europe's most budget-friendly quality options.
Why students choose this country
Why Poland?
The four facts that matter most when weighing your options — including the honest catch.
Post-study work
Graduates of full-time Polish programs can apply for a 9-month temporary residence permit to look for work — and work without a separate permit.
Standout strength
University of Warsaw and Jagiellonian (one of Europe's oldest) offer respected degrees in medicine, engineering, and CS inside the EU.
Cost positioning
Tuition is among Europe's lowest — roughly €2k–€6k per year — with living costs to match.
The honest caveat
English-taught programs are growing but limited, and Polish salary levels are below Western Europe — plan for the long game.
