Recognition of High School certificates issued abroad

STEP 1

You must prepare the required set of documents for your application:

• Original high school certificate(s) – the one(s) we require during the application process. To make sure you can check here: “Eligibility for studies”
• Legalized high school certificate(s) – it/they must be legalized/apostilled by the proper authorities in your home country and the Polish embassy
• Sworn Polish translations of all educational high school certificates – if it is possible for you to obtain it in your home country
• A copy of your passport data page – make sure the quality of the copy is sharp
• Filled out Letter of authorization with your handwritten signature – only the marked places as in the example attached
• Eligibility letter from the proper institution (if you have one/can get one)
• If there were any changes to your name(s) or date of birth on the certificate(s) and they are not identical to what you have on your passport data page, you also need to provide the proper document which explains this (e.g. marriage certificate, affidavit, etc.)

STEP 2

All the above mentioned documents have to be sent to our campus for further actions.

Please note that you can also share the shipping with your friends/acquaintances if you were admitted to our university together. The shipping address is below:

Name of the institution: Lubelska Akademia WSEI
Street/building: Projektowa 4, pokój 02/office 02 ground floor
Postal code: 20-209
City: Lublin
Country: Polska/Poland

After we receive the documents, the first step is to submit them for sworn Polish translation (if you did not provide it). Please note that the cost of the translation services is established by the Ministry of Justice in Poland and the cost of such translation is approx. 10 EURO/per 1125 symbols. The cost of the translation will be deducted from your paid tuition for the studies. You will have to top up your tuition before class resumption.

STEP 3

As soon as we have all your documents and translations ready, we’ll be submitting them for recognition at the Polish Education Board on your behalf. The waiting time for the decision is around a month after submission. As soon as we get the decision, we’ll be sending you the scanned copy of it for your visa application.
