Most "rankings" rate the universities in Warszawa and Krakow highest, especially the management school in Warsaw (SGH).

It's difficult to know what to recommend for foreign students. A number of public and private institutions offer programmes, but their quality and reputation vary. The Polytechnic in Wroclaw seems to have an excellent and deserved reputation.

In recent years, young people have been coming to Wroclaw from Ukraine and other countries east of Poland: the job market is open to them now, and Poland's still-robust economy offers plenty of part-time work. Those I know say that they like Wroclaw. I wouldn't recommend that foreigners go to a smaller city, at least the ones I happen to know: they are foreigner-friendly but dull and isolated.
