Gliwice, in Silesia, is known for the wooden Gliwice Radio Tower, its historic market square and the Silesian University of Technology, one of Poland's leading technical universities. Close to Katowice and with low living costs, it is attractive to engineering students.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language study options in Gliwice. Programs at the Silesian University of Technology and options in Katowice can be considered.
In Gliwice you can book courses of as little as one week. On an intensive program, one language level usually takes 6-8 weeks. A complete beginner typically needs 6-12 months to reach the B2-C1 level required for university.
The biggest factor in the price is the length of your booking: the weekly fee drops noticeably for bookings of 12 weeks or more. Winter is usually cheaper than the summer months. NGGlobal students can take advantage of the schools' seasonal discounts and offers.
At most language schools courses start every Monday, though complete beginner courses may have set start dates. For long programs that require a visa, we recommend applying at least 3 months ahead. Summer is the busiest period.
For study longer than 90 days, you get a national (D) study visa from Poland's missions in Turkey, and for longer stays you apply for a temporary residence permit in Poland. This visa is usually granted to students on university programs and university preparatory courses.
Working in breach of visa rules can lead to serious penalties, so always follow the official rules. NGGlobal helps you plan your budget for the course and living costs.

Fly from Turkey to Katowice or Kraków and continue to Gliwice by train or bus; it is about 30 minutes from Katowice.
