Methodology & source
All counts and tuition figures are computed directly from the catalogue behind apply.edu.pl, which is built from RADON/POL-on, the official public register of Polish higher education maintained by the Ministry of Science, and enriched with per-programme tuition research from official university pricing pages. Only active, fully English-taught degree programmes are counted. Tuition medians cover the 74% of programmes with a published EUR fee — universities that publish fees only per faculty or on request are excluded from the maths, never guessed.
