Collegiand open career paths in many professional undertakings. Collegium Civitas academic programs combine social and humanist knowledge from the fields of philosophy, sociology, political science, contemporary history, logics and law with the specialized knowledge of economy, management, psychology and new media.

Zzzum Civitas is a university founded in 1997 by a joint initiative of professors from the Polish Academy of Sciences. We created this university in order to enable young people to obtain education in social and political sciences at the level comparable to the one offered by the renowned European and American higher education establishments.

Our aim is not only to transfer to our students the fascinating interdisciplinary knowledge allowing them for greater understanding of social phenomena, but also to facilitate the acquisition of practical skills, which can guarantee them an advantageous position on the job market 

Admission

If you are genuinely interested in International Relations or Political Science and you are convinced that you are a well-qualified candidate, there are two really important elements of the admissions package that you have to get before becoming a student at our university: a proof of English proficiency and a legalization of your diploma (or an apostille) together with a certificate stating that you are entitled to study at a university/college.

The legalization or the apostille together with the certificate are necessary to have your diploma nostrified (recognized) in Poland or to have it exempt from nostrification (in the case of Higher Education Diplomas).

Important additional requirements for non-Polish citizens stemming from the legal regulations concerning recognition of school certificates and diplomas from institutions of higher education:

  1. Only diplomas issued in Polish or English can be considered. Diplomas issued in other languages have to be translated into Polish or English by an official translator or by the Polish Embassy or Consulate.
  2. While in Poland, international students will be required to nostrify their diplomas in a local educational council unless they come from the countries with which Poland has special recognition agreements

 

Application package - checklist

The Application Package should contain:

 

  • Copy of the High School Diploma with a copy of the high-school transcript with the grading scale.
  • Legalization of the High School Diploma or the apostille of it (unless you come from the countries with which Poland has special recognition agreements, details above).
  • Copy of the BA or MA Diploma with a copy of the transcript with the grading scale.
  • Legalization of the BA or MA Diploma or the apostille of it (only for candidates applying for a 2-year MA Program), unless you come from the countries with which Poland has special recognition agreements, details above.

If by a decision the Admissions Committee you are granted a status of a student of Collegium Civitas, we send you a formal pre-acceptance letter by email. The selection of candidates to all programs is carried out on the basis of transparent and fair criteria. The first criterion is an applicant's preceding performance in school or, if the applicant applies to one of our 2-year MA programs, at college (university). The second criterion is a command of the English language. Candidates are required to present evidence of their proficiency in English. Please note that even applicants from countries where English is well-known, such as Nigeria or India, must provide proof of their knowledge of spoken and, in particular, written English, since the writing of academic papers is a major course requirement at Collegium Civitas.
