Summary/Abstract: A modern university is undergoing intense transformations, towards which not only the formal organization of the education process is changing, but also the atmosphere in which the cooperation of education participants takes place. The aim of the article is to learn about the personal reflections of students of the Kazimierz Wielki University in Bydgoszcz about the experiences of the study process. Based on the analysis of qualitative interviews conducted among 30 students, it can be seen that the respondents perceive studies as a significant stage of their own lives, which sets the boundaries between adolescence and adulthood. They consider studying in three dimensions, namely intellectual, economic and social, and the obtained diploma of a university provides them with the opportunity to achieve a higher socioeconomic status. The surveyed students expect practical knowledge from university, emphasizing that the curriculum contains too much theoretical content.
