You have made it, you took care of all the necessary arrangments prior to your arrival in Warsaw. It is certainly a good feeling but suddenly you end up in completely new place, surrounded by strangers speaking odd language. Do not worry though. This section is designed to help you during your stay in Warsaw, especially during first weeks. It contains information useful both during your time at the University and outside of it. If you have some specific questions that you cannot find answer to, you can always contact us directly.
