Someone said I should get it, that I might need it

courageonyekwel:
Bro did you get a police character certificate before leaving Nigeria and do you need it for a job

kid7soccer:
nice one bro.

One thing I've come to understand about studying abroad is how informed you are about where your going. I have seen people go to places where nobody will love to go and they are making it.

All you need is a plan, research and build a mindset to cope in where you are going. Do your home work and you won't encounter any serious issue.

Based on my research about Poland there are jobs, though learning the language will go a long way. But if people are get jobs in Ukraine for $200h-$3-500h then why won't you find jobs in Poland that is in EU.

As for the resident permit issue i also heard of it but it not like you will have your documents rejected, it just a difficult process due to the fact that the departments in charge are running old school services making it difficult to meet up the high numbers of applications. So once you arrive start the process immediately.

Once you submit your application with all the required documents you will have no issue.

I'm just hearing poland expensive, if it rent I know but food no. Rent is expensive in every country especially when you stay out of campus. So stay on campus and save your money, if you want personal freedom and private space na your money go tell u.


By the way I heard residents permit is valid for 3 - 5 year. While you get a citizenship after 8years, how true is this ?


All in all poland is a place to be People from Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Asia etc are all running to Poland cause its a stepping stone to Europe.

Once you enter Europe, you don land b dat

Bro I actually plan on coming to collegium civitas, would you say it's a good school and is it easy to get part time jobs so I can pay my rent, my tuition would be covered by my parents

Olivier6ix:
Sponsor details and ID :- I used my mum’s employment letter and payment slip of 651k and national ID card, I submitted her promotion letter also, change of name certificate

Insurance:- I insure 365 days and 10days with Allianz insurance company for 25,219 Naira

Accommodation:- I reserved on booking.com( this right here is the most tricky one, if you are submitting 600k payment slip...dn’t go and reserve 200k room or hostel cos they will calculate that in a year compare it to your sponsors salary in a year. You can reserve hostel of 70k)

Flight reservation:- I reserve on goibibo.com, you can also reserve on emirate too

Land property:- I “believe” this serves as ties to home country but the names on the papers bear my surname (my father’s property)

Ties to home country:- I submitted my NYSC certificate and land property (I think ni o cos me sef I no understand this part but those are the documents are I submitted).

Olivier6ix:
I was always here before I submitted my application and even after and I’m here now to give out the little information and my preparation for someone out there. Most people are ignorant bou this visa application thing and dn’t necessarily know what to do, I saw and a guy at the embassy saying his payment slip was made of 90k and some didn’t reserve accommodation, some didn’t attest their certificate (for people going for B.Sc), some didn’t reserve return air ticket...all these things are facts
Before I start any preparation at all, I drafted some lists and set out the setbacks and mainly worked on the setbacks that most people encounter but making sure my other documents are complete also.
My boy who’s already in Poland (ogaga360) put me through also and at the end of the day, I got my visa.
Every documents and preparation is on this list

I only follow this thread, I'm not aware of another thread. If you meant previous posts, I'll check again

I didn't say there are no jobs what I said is they don't pay well if at all u manage to find one. Most Poles travel to other countries to look for work and earn well. But its not the same with a person holding their student permit that's not enough most people will still insist u don't have their permit to work in their country. But if u are married to a person from Eu then its different. Poznan is not a place to find lots of foreigners u even struggle to cope with their language being spoken all over before u can even do anything . u hardly get a job even if there was there because those who are foreigners can speak the language be given priority u need to stay for a while to understand how things work here.

Amanee:
I honestly appreciate your input on this, truly I do but why didn't you help us with more info on your journey when you started and how the process was like. This thread suffers a dearth of experiences that would have made it fuller and more informative because of people like you. Even if you didn't get much help from here during your journey you could have at least helped upcoming students with your wealth of experience. Again, I don't mean to offend and I hope you both get the gist of my post.

like I said if you are not so rich, I've friends struggling with paying their rents in Warsaw as well as fees because it's expensive I've been to quite a lot of cities in Poland if not all the major cities, securing a resident permit in Warsaw you know how it is most people have had to pay agencies to help them out the rate of rejection is higher compared to other cities why is it so? Its a thing of choice I'm not forcing anyone to accept maybe I'll try to get my friend coming from Warsaw this weekend for a higher paying job with accommodation in that same so caller smaller city! When u realise u are paying too much fees a some private university is when u hear how much we pay in public schools. There are also better chances of getting permanent job in smaller cities for lack of competitions as for me I'm not living in a place for the language or the sake of its name. After all this is Poland if I didn't think of these difficulties with language and all I won't be here, where u also have more people who don't speak English even helps u in learning the language much more easier.

wizzdy:
Hi Everyone this is those who intend to come to Poland for studies. As you all know admission is ongoing in most Polish schools However I would like to give a few advice based on experience. (1) Try to avoid schools in major cities in Poland if you are not so rich! Because The cost of living is higher in those places as well as tuition fees. (1) its more difficult to get a resident permit as a student from those places, (3) search for public schools they usually are well known no matter how small the city or town they are located in (4) immigration usually recognise documents from Public schools a lot more. (5) jobs don't pay higher because they are in bigger cities. Language is often a problem in smaller cities though u can always find those who speaks English if need be.

dotunfelix1:
Please can someone use bank statement for poland visa

Jaycew:
I did read from the beginning to the end, i saw a lot of contradicting contributions. And about the credit card, last I saw someone talk about it on here was in 2018, I just wanted to know if it’s still accepted at the embassy.
For the amount, I only saw stipulated amount for sponsors account and pay slip, none about credit card.

Jaycew:
Doesn’t still answer the question sir,
Like I said I have gone though the thread from page 1 to present, and the 58 you mentioned has info regarding people with sponsors on how much should be in their sponsors account and all that, but as regards people sponsoring themselves, he Made mention that 2M is more that enough for the everything, but cannot b submitted as proof of funds,
Now what can be submitted as proof of fund for people self sponsoring their studies?
If credit card is still accepted, how much does one need to credit into the account to submit as POF?

Shercorp:
Guys, please how much must one have as account statement of balance for polish student visa?

I'm planning on sponsoring my self to Poland.
Warsaw University Of Technology to be precise.

Freshprince777:
