Study / How hard is it to get accepted to Wroclaw University of Technology? / Unis in general? [37]
Merged: How difficult is it really to get into Wroclaw University of Technology/Unis in general?
Hey, native Pole here, though I spent a better part of my life living in UK. My GCSE's were excellent, but I had a bunch of personal issues during my A-Levels that prompted me to drop the ball quite a fair bit and end up with mere C/D/D which isn't as terrible as it could have been but it's certainly not worth the effort of going to some sub-par uni in UK only to deal with the raised tuition prices. I'm considering going back to Poland to study an English-language Comp Sci course at WUoT seeing how it'd be nice to get back into the ol' country while also having the convenience of being pretty bloody fluent at both languages, but I'm worried my less-than-stellar results might get in the way. I'm definitely capable of way more than that (having generally gotten all of my **** together since then) and doubt I'll struggle much in the first year considering I've covered a lot of the stuff I'll be doing already during my A-Levels, but there's a lot of hearsay and unreliable information going around regarding actually getting accepted into the foreigner's/English-lang courses. The common opinion that seems to be going around is that the unis are generally pretty lenient on the admissions themselves, then leave you to fend for yourself with regards to whether you can actually make it through the hardships of your first semester, but for all I know, that could very well just be a load of bollocks. Can anyone offer some advice with regards to this?
