The tsarist authorities believed that the Russian university would become a perfect way to Polish society and spent a significant sum on building a new university campus. However, various underground organizations soon started to grow and the students became their leaders in Warsaw. Most notable of these groups (the supporters of Polish revival and the ) joined the ranks of the. Afterwards a of Russian educational facilities was proclaimed and the number of Polish students dropped to below 10%.

There were two times when the question of moving the university into Russia was considered. During the 1905–1907 revolution, such a proposal was made by some of the professors, in the face of a boycott of the university by Polish students. Talks on that subject were conducted with a number of Russian cities, including.
The Russian government finally decided to keep a university in Warsaw, but as a result of the boycott, the university was Russian not only in the sense of the language used, but also of the nationality of its professors and students.For the second time the question emerged during the First World War, when the military and political situation forced the Russian authorities to evacuate. Beginning from the autumn of 1915, there were two Universities of Warsaw: one Polish, in Warsaw, and another Russian, in which functioned until 1917. On 5 May 1917 the Russian Provisional Government decided to close the University of Warsaw.

One of these was the University of Warsaw. The Polish language was reintroduced, and the professors were allowed to return to work. In order not to let the Polish patriotic movement out of control the number of lecturers was kept low (usually not more than 50), but there were no limits on the number of students.

Education in Polish was banned and punished with death. However, many professors organized the so-called 'Secret University of Warsaw' ( Tajny Uniwersytet Warszawski). The lectures were held in small groups in private apartments and the attendants were constantly risking discovery and death. However, the net of underground faculties spread rapidly and by 1944 there were more than 300 lecturers and 3,500 students at various courses. Many students took part in the as soldiers of the.
The German-held campus of the University was turned into a fortified area with bunkers and nests. It was located close to the buildings occupied by the German garrison of Warsaw.

After 's rise to power in 1956, a brief period of liberalization ensued, though communist ideology still played a major role in most faculties (especially in such faculties as history, law, economics, and political science). International cooperation was resumed and the level of education rose.By mid-1960s the government started to suppress freedom of thought, which led to increasing unrest among the students.
