Aim: An analysis of the idea of boarding school for the poor nobility in the educational system of the Committee of National Education. Methods: Methods adopted in historical and pedagogical sciences. A critical analysis of sources and literature, comparative and linguistic methods. Results: From the moment the Committee of National Education (1773–1794) took control of educational matters, the dominant role of the exclusive, private colleges (Collegia Nobilium) in the education of the noble elite was reduced. The Commission opened 12 boarding schools for the impoverished nobility, which was to prove extremely important for the process of democratization of education in the institutions of the Republic of Poland. Thanks to such boarding schools, acquiring the knowledge necessary for a future profession did not necessitate becoming a student in the service of a magnate. The lesser, poor nobility wished, thanks to this education, to become independent of their wealthier peers and to prepare for a profession in teaching, government, or military, all of which were needed by the monarch and the nation. The sons of the impoverished nobility were made ready to fulfil their duty as citizens of the Republic. Conclusions: There is a need for further source research that will explain the social, educational and cultural role of these institutions, which are important for the democratization of education.
