Student Visas 2025

01.07.2025

From July 1, 2025, we are introducing new requirements in the visa process for studies in Poland.

CG Announcement

In order to apply for a student visa as of July 1, 2025 students admitted to the 1st year of study at the first degree studies or to the 1st year of study at the uniform master's studies are obliged to present during the visa process:

  1. The original/copy or scan of acceptance letter of the unit conducting the studies on admission to studies or on continuation of studies;
  2. Written confirmation document from National Agency for Academic Exchange (Narodowa Agencja Wymiany Akademickiej) confirming that the high school diploma being in his/her possession entitles the person indicated in the diploma to study in Poland;

The aforementioned written confirmation document has to be submitted along with the application for a student visa as well as other required documents by foreign students admitted to the 1st year of study at the first degree studies or to the 1st year of study at the uniform master's studies. Inability to present the document indicated above will result in refusal of the student visa.

ATTENTION!
Foreigners who already hold the administrative decision issued by the Education Regional Superintendent (Regional Board of Education) on recognition of their high school diploma present it instead of the written information.

Consuls do not participate in the process of recognizing secondary school diplomas. They do not provide assistance in this regard, nor they mediate between a foreigner and an university or National Agency for Academic Exchange in the transfer of documents.


For your convenience please find enclosed the e-mail address of the National Agency for Academic Exchange which may be reached at: dyplom@nawa.gov.pl, as well as the link to their official website How to obtain a recognition statement - NAWA :
