Really nice city, especially in the warm part of the year. A lot of young people.

However, cheap accommodation is not very easy to find.

I've lived in Krakow for 4 years, studying and working, and I highly recommend this city. It's very student friendly; actually, sometimes people refer to Krakow as "the student city". The prices in many places, like museums, clubs, restaurants, or even the bus tickets are cheaper for students. The con is definitely quite expensive accomodation, but that would be it :) other aspects of studying here are advantageous.

I bet you will enjoy it. Have fun!

I spent the whole August in Cracow and it was amazing. Not only Cracow is easy to navigate on your own, but also people are very friendly for foreigners. Poles speak quite good English, you won't have problems with communication or asking for a direction.
I definitely recommend going in spring or summer. I have contact with Poles I've met during my stay and they say that now is freezing!

Poles are real good people.
I admire them. I am currently living in DUBAI, UAE and I would
love to have Polish friends of any age and gender.

I studied abroad in Krakow 2 summers ago and had the time of my life. My friend is currently studying there for the semester and loving it as well. Contact these guys and they will get you straightened out with living, classes, everything: www.thekf.org
