Answer 1

They accept American Visa..

Answer 2

If you're going for school I think you get a student visa. That's what I did when I went to India. You have to ask the person running the program cause I don't know how it's done in Kuwait.

Answer 4

Well if you are going to stay longer in Poland you have to apply for Polish visa. There is nothing like "European union visa", Poland is the member of Schengen treaty, which means that once you have a visa to one of EU countries, you can travel freely to other countries as well. But if you're flying directly to Poland, I guess you need Polish visa.

Regarding the Embassy - there is Polish embassy (or consulate, I'm not sure) in Kuwait!!! I found the following info:
