General advice from current students:
For the bus, metro and tram, buy a ticket before getting on, either at a ticket machine or a newspaper/tobacco kiosk. The ticket can be used for all three modes of transport, and needs to be validated by putting into a machine on the bus/tram when getting on.
Confirm the price for a taxi before departing (the average price from Chopin airport to campus is about 50 PLN – only use taxis from the taxi rank outside the arrivals terminal building – DO NOT accept fares from taxi drivers standing in the arrivals building)
When you arrive on campus, go to Limba straight away - the address is ul. Nowoursynowska 161L Kampus SGGW, Ursynów. Most taxi drivers will recognise this address.
If you are a graduate and you are looking to get exemptions, please make sure you have a European diploma transcript and the syllabus for your whole course
Email Ludmiła at ludmila_kot@sggw.pl to inform her of your date and time of arrival at SGGW - if you are late, then you may not be able to get bedding for your dorm for your first night’s stay.
Bring a spare passport photo with you, just in case it is required
Bring an Ethernet cable with you as they are not provided (although you can buy them at the Leclerc supermarket, 10 minutes down the road)
Lined paper is difficult to acquire in Poland - bring some if you prefer it to square or plain paper.
Bring appropriate winter clothing as the weather is unpredictable compared to some countries – the winters in Poland get very snowy and cold!
Bring bedding/fitted sheets as only non-fitted sheets are provided (which are too short for the bed)
Before you buy textbooks for your course, ask a current student which are vital and which are optional
Jaywalking and drinking alcohol on the street results in an on the spot fine by the police.
If you have any questions you can also contact some of current students, who are happy to help:
