It's easier because compared to other wester european countries(like UK, german, france), poland is unattractive to most internatioanl students...so acceptance rate is high. Also tution is resonable compared to North american universities. Except for warsaw(the capital), most places have a fairly inexpensive cost of living. Plus, they give u a shengen visa which allows u to visit 26 European countries(including germany, france, italy...) Yes, u can get a part time job in poland as an international student. Most of the job are blue collar job which might be tedious. Delivery, Cashiers, Waiters, Warehouse jobs are the most common
