Universities are financed both from the public and private sources. Presently in Poland reforms of this financing are discussed and implemented. This generates both economic and social consequences. The newly edited ”Development strategy for the higher education system in Poland up to the year 2020” suggests many both evolutionary and revolutionary changes in financing the studies. The example is an idea of the common tuition fees.
