Is the Medicine programme direct-entry after high school?

Yes. Polish law classifies it as a long-cycle Master's programme, but it is direct-entry: admission follows straight from secondary education with no separate bachelor's stage.

What qualification is awarded on graduation?

Graduates receive a Polish medical diploma with the degree title Lekarz, listed under EU Directive 2005/36/EC for automatic recognition across the EU/EEA once the Lekarski Egzamin Koncowy final exam and a postgraduate internship are also completed.

How long is the programme and how is it structured?

Six years (384 ECTS credits): roughly three pre-clinical years followed by three years with a growing share of clinical training, plus a mandatory 20 weeks of summer clerkship spread across the years.

What is the current tuition fee?

For the 2026-27 academic year, tuition is EUR 18,800 per year (EUR 112,800 for the full six-year course), payable in two or four instalments per year.

Are there additional fees besides tuition?

Yes -- a non-refundable application fee and a non-refundable EUR 1,000 confirmation fee, of which only EUR 500 is refundable if a candidate withdraws in writing before 15 July.

What entrance exam does the university require?

The default route is the university's own Competency Test: 80 questions covering Biology, Chemistry and Decision Making. Candidates may alternatively submit a qualifying standardized test score or, for bachelor's or master's degree holders, a qualifying GPA, though a 2025 law change means most candidates in these alternate routes need individual confirmation from the Admission Board.

When does the academic year start?

The academic year begins with Orientation Week, provisionally scheduled for the last week of September, with the final schedule published each September.

Is the English Division open to Polish citizens?

No. The English-taught six-year Medicine programme is restricted to non-citizens of Poland.

Do Indian students need NEET to join this programme?

The university's own admissions criteria do not reference NEET. Separately, India's National Medical Commission requires Indian citizens and OCI holders who obtain a primary medical qualification abroad to have qualified NEET-UG, whose result serves as the mandatory Eligibility Certificate.

What accommodation options exist for first-year students?

The university's own Student Dormitory No. 2 BIS offers a limited, first-come-first-served number of places to first-year English Division students; those who don't secure a place can use accredited private partner dormitories.
