Moving to a foreign country to study is very exciting. You get an opportunity to live in another part of the world, meet new people, and learn about a different culture. Despite the excitement, you might have some questions about the practical aspects of living in a foreign country. For example: Will I be able to communicate if I speak a different language? Are there any other foreigners in Poland who might be in a similar situation as me? Will I be able to work in Poland to generate some income? What should I do in a crisis situation? During our webinar, we will talk about all these matters and answer any questions you might have.

“Working with candidates and students from around the world gives me a lot of satisfaction. I graduated from a secondary school in Dublin, Ireland, so as someone who has experienced the process of moving to a foreign country as well as learning in a foreign school, in a foreign language, I know how important the support of the institution and its employees is for the newcomers.”
