IMPORTANT!

Please note that the Polish Embassies require the Decision of the Education Office on Recognition of your High School Certificate to issue a student visa for Bachelor's degree studies.

Please click to visit the website of the Education Office in Warsaw for more information.

*Documents from EU, OECD or EFTA member countries (Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States), as well as IB or EB diplomas and certificates issued in countries with which Poland has signed a bilateral agreement concerning the recognition of education (China, Libya, Ukraine) are exempted from the recognition requirement.

The Decision on Recognition of your High School Certificate may be obtained only in the territory of Poland. You can authorise someone in Poland (e.g. a friend, a family member, a lawyer or a private company) to represent you in the recognition process.

As the possession of the Decision on Recognition is a prerequisite for a visa, WUT will require it before issuing your final acceptance letter for Bachelor’s degree studies.

It takes around one week to get your documents verified. If anything needs to be added, you will be informed about it in the Online Application System. If all the documents are correct, you will receive a scan of the Visa Letter in the Online Application System.

NOTE: Visa procedures are the responsibility of candidates. Please visit the website of the Polish consulate for your country for specific requirements.

STEP 7: Arrival & registration

Before the classes start, you will be asked to register personally at the International Students Office and at the Faculty. Check more information about Registration here.

Along with the main High school certificate, you need to present a transcript of records. We usually require at least around 70% of GPA and very good grades in Maths and Science subjects. You can apply with a lower GPA, but your chances of admission may be lower. However, in the case of Architecture, the most important are results of your Architecture Examination Task and the interview.

Remember that during the application, your documents will be verified by ISO and if anything is missing you will be informed about it, and you will have a chance to submit what is missing within a few days. However, it is your responsibility to upload proper documents that entitle you to enter university education in the given educational system and that fulfil WUT's requirements. If documents are not correct, your application will not be valid and the application fee not be refunded.
