Polish roots and mother's love
I came to study in Poland straight from Russia. When I learned from the Polish
Embassy in Moscow that I can try to pass an entry exam (to study in Poland).
I said to myself "Why not give it a try?"
My Polish roots and my mother's love for Poland helped. I decided to study at APS since I am interested in therapy through art and here I can study art therapy. I have heard that APS is the best pedagogic school in Poland. I am very happy to have passed the entry exam and to be a student at APS. Maria Bielijewska, Artistic Education student from Russia

Poland is a fascinating country that serves as the geographical and cultural crossroads of Eastern and Western Europe. Located at the center of the Northern European plain, Poland has been a nation of survivors since the foundation of the first Polish state more than 1,000 years ago. Through its turbulent history its people have managed to maintain their identity, and today, the country enjoys a crucial position as the largest of the former Eastern European states and the most populous new member of the European Union.
Warsaw is a city of dynamic development and excellent prospects. The Polish capital is a truly European city, the pride of Polish people and a popular destination for foreigners. Many visitors extend their stay, discovering new opportunities in the city. Today the Warsaw metropolitan area is home to 3 million residents, 1,69 million of whom live in Warsaw itself. Warsaw is the centre of Poland's political, economic, and cultural life. The city's location in the centre of Europe makes it an important communication and transportation hub.
