History
The university traces its history to Warsaw Theological Academy (Akademia Teologii Katolickiej), created by the Polish communist government after it had closed down the theology departments at University of Warsaw and Jagiellonian University. The academy did not receive full acceptance from Roman Catholic Church in Poland until the fall of communism in 1989 removed state control over the institution. In 1999 the academy was transformed into the current university.
The university consists of two main campuses in Warsaw's northern districts. The old one at Bielany and the new one at Mlociny, which mostly houses arts and humanities faculties.
