Buddy system
The Buddy System is run by the International Student Network in cooperation with the International Office.
The main idea of Buddy system is that every student coming to Wrocław for an exchange period gets paired up with a local, who can help them find their feet in a new environment, show them around Wrocław and offer help in case of any emergencies. The kind of assistance can vary - from picking a Buddy up from the airport, through accompanying them on a trip to the Voivodeship Office, all the way to showing them the best places in the city to eat pierogi. The details are up to you, but the most important thing is always just being there in case of any questions or worries.
Why Join as a Buddy?
- Learn about Polish culture, the city, and the language.
- Make friends and gain a support system.
Why Be a Buddy?
- Enjoy cultural exchange and share your knowledge.
- Connect with international students and explore Wrocław together.
You can register in 5 minutes by filling out an online form with basic details (study field, hobbies, arrival/departure dates, etc.). The algorithm will match you with a suitable Buddy. Once paired, you’ll receive their contact information via email.
Sign up here: buddysystem.eu/en/register
In case of any quesitons, plase contact isn@uwr.edu.pl.
Some additional information:
What activities do Buddies do?
Anything you’d do with a friend—grab coffee, visit a museum, or cook togethe!
Who will I be matched with?
We pair based on age, interests, and more to ensure compatibility.
Can I choose a Buddy from a specific country?
You can request it, but matches depend on availability. It largely depends on the year and on who actually arrives in Wrocław. You might need to be fairly flexible.
What should I do if my buddy has a problem or question that I can't deal with?
Feel free to get in touch with ISN. The Facebook group dedicated to the Buddy System is also full of people who might have already experienced similar problems.
I missed the deadline, can I still get a buddy?
Maybe! Make sure to still sign up. Sometimes there are people signing up well after the deadline, so it’s possible that you can still get a Buddy. If the form is closed, please e-mail buddysystemuwr@gmail.com
I am an exchange student, can I have multiple buddies?
No, please only sign up once. Fewer local students sign up than incoming international students, and we want to have as many international students covered as possible.
I am a local student, can I have multiple buddies?
Yes. There are always fewer local students signing up than incoming international students, so all the help is appreciate

Psychological consultations
Psychological consultations and psychological counselling are designed for people who are struggling with various kinds of difficulties or crises. It is for people who are experiencing depressed mood, anxiety, shyness, helplessness, who are experiencing problems in relationships with loved ones (partner, family, peers), for those who couldn’t cope with stress, studying, have concentrating troubles or have some problems with adaptation to the new environment.
Psychological consultations are simply helping to solve various kinds of crises and difficult situations – it is not identical with psychotherapy. Any person may sometimes need this kind of psychological support. Any person who will enrol for consultations can take advantage of the free meetings with a psychologist.
Consultation and psychological support possible online during the coronavirus epidemic - contact: magdalenapiosek@gmail.com
