Poland is a member <strong>of</strong> the European Union and a party to the Schengen<br />
agreement . This agreement enables foreigners residing in Poland<br />
to travel freely (without prior arrangement <strong>of</strong> a visa) within the Schengen<br />
countries (i.e. nearly all the countries <strong>of</strong> Western and Central Europe).<br />
I came to Poland in 2005 and <strong>of</strong> course, I shared the common<br />
problem <strong>of</strong> the language barrier. So finding an English language<br />
school was definitely a blessing. I’ve picked up the language too<br />
because the school provided Polish lessons.<br />
Being a long-standing student <strong>of</strong> Collegium Civitas I can say that<br />
surely it’s worth it! It’s not very expensive, the admin and academic<br />
staff are also very helpful and understanding and I found my<br />
program very interesting. Enjoy!<br />

Visa Requirements<br />
Citizens <strong>of</strong> some countries may need to apply for a Polish visa. For visits <strong>of</strong> up to three months citizens <strong>of</strong> many countries, including<br />
the US, Canada, Australia, Croatia, do not require a visa. Those intending to study in Poland for more than three months should<br />
obtain the necessary visa. Prospective students are prompted to contact the Polish Embassy or Consulate in their home countries<br />
for further details.
