More alternative youc and find in Dobra Street 4 clubs pretty nice...Filozoficzna, Aurora, Diuna, adn Czarny Lew.
If you like a after you will enjoy Luztro in front of National Museum.
In Palace of Culture you can find Kulturalna..a great and calm place by day or by night.

It was an authentic adventure: after studying all the advertisements abount banks accounts, I decided to open an account at Bank Pekao S.A.; It was O. K., but I had some language problems at the begginning; later on, my bank at Spain had a problem and I only could get my money throutgh a transfer two weeks after I ordered it (I had to be two weeks eating just spaghetti and bread...nive thing).

Law, 2022
OverallMaster program of law at University of Warsaw gave me a full spectrum of polish and europan law- both public and private. A student can choose from variety of courses depending on one's interest. The program consists of obligatory seminars and voluntary lectures.

Course recommendations
The University of Warsaw has plenty of
courses relating to very different aspects, specially relating to Law, Social Sciences and International Relations. I had the chance to attend a course on English and European Law, imparted in English by British professors coming from University of Cambridge. That can give you an idea about the courses thet you can follow at the university or one of their associated centres.

A closer relation in respect to foreign students, if they feel more involved, they can really provide a higer profit making it more famous abroad

I wish i had known more polish...the young people can speak english but are hesitant to speak it and can sometimes be rude if you automatically speak english without trying polish.

I would suggest going through erasmus...they have the facilities to help you out...if you go on your own as a general exchange student you will struggle.

Cafe Brama is a very good place to meet people, like the Irish pub next to the Kolumna Zygmunta (I don´t remember right now the name); Club Proxima and Park discos are places with a varieted programme on night music (every night a different style of music); I would say that even a bar meleczny (milky bar) is a good place for eating ... er ... Polish tipycal "food" and involve a bit more inthe big city of Warsaw
