How good is Politechnika Warszawska? [33]
Well, why? My university isn't one of the best universities in Turkey but nearly all professors speak English good and can explain everything clearly. The university also has some foreign professors who can speak English good.
Most of older generation here know Russian, not English. But it's not a problem in IT, as most of stuff should be younger and know English. I am not complaining about quality of teaching. This should be similar in English and Polish spoken specialties.
What is different is the quality of students. In Poland universities usually make goals that some percentage (or not more than) should fail exams. In this way professors adjust difficulty of exams. When you study in top school with top students, then exams are harder, while when you study in English, students are not top, because they're mostly children of rich parents from the east or south part of the world, not necessarily top students. You won't study with other Poles most likely, because public education is free in Poland when thought in Polish. When tutoring language is English, then school can request payment, so Poles don't go studying there. So if you go studying there you will not gain any valuable contacts in Poland, because most of students will leave the country back home after graduation. You will not be studying on the same level as Polish students, because professors will be requiring less from you. That's not necessarily bad, but you will not be able to say that you are one of the elite who graduated top schools.
Solution would be any good, not necessarily top school, which has English language IT course free for Poles. There are only few such, but I think I've heard that Wrocław has something like that, but I was not investigating. Polsko-Japońska Wyższa Szkoła Technik Komputerowych could be good too if there are many Poles on English programs.
I am simply discouraging studying in Poland with foreigners only.

I don't see information that studies in English costs EU citizens any money, so probably it's true, that in Politechnika Worcławska all English courses are free to Poles.
That's why Wrocław seems to be the best option.
Lodz University of Technology has "BSc in Computer Science" and:
"EU citizens and permanent residents of the Republic of Poland study free of charge; non-EU citizens - 4000 EUR per year "
It's not top, but good university at least for Polish courses. £ódź is in the center of Poland and has cheap accommodation.
More options:
It seems that quite many universities offer English courses free of charge for EU citizens now. It must have changed in last years.
Also here is confirmation that EU people can study for free in Wrocław:
