UNIVERSITY PATHWAY RUSSIA

At Russian universities, you can study to join almost any profession currently in demand on the global market. Applicants only need to select the programme that is best for them. Decide on your criteria (subject, town, form of study, and instruction language) and start your search.
 
In Russia, prospective students have a huge range of options:
  • You have access to the most diverse choice of subjects, from mathematics and natural sciences to drama;
  • 896 universities across 85 regions of the country from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok are ready to welcome you;
  • You can study for a Bachelor’s, Specialist or Master’s Degree, a doctorate, professional training or career advancement, and also learn Russian.
 
FUNDING & SCHOLARSHIP

Both foreigners and Russian citizens can study at Russian universities at the expense of the Russian government or on a private basis.
Study Funded by the Russian Federation
There are three options for enrolment in state-funded places. Candidates can:
  • Become a winner of one of the Academic Competitions held in Russia or abroad;
  • Pass the Unified State Examination or entrance exams;
  • Pass competitive selection for a government scholarship (quota).
Self-funded students
If they have their own funds for study, applicants can select an educational institution and communicate with its representatives. 
 
 
APPLICATION

At the first stage it is usually sufficient to provide certified and translated copies of an identification card and education certificates. At the second stage (after your arrival in Russia), you need to bring the originals of the documents and additional certificates to the selection committee of the university.
Get more information about the documents required at each stage by contacting:
  • International offices of universities (if you are enrolling independently);
  • Rossotrudnichestvo offices or a Russian embassy in your country (if you are participating in competitive selection for a government scholarship).
In most cases, documents require certification in the applicant’s home country. Applicants from some countries will also have to go through a procedure of recognition of their diplomas or certificates in Russia
 
 
TYPES OF COMPETITIVE SELECTION:

Entrance Exams and Introductory Unified State Examination (EGE)

When enrolling at a Russian university on the usual terms, the applicants submit the results of the Unified State Examination (EGE) or pass admission tests. 
The EGE is the exam taken by all high school graduates in Russia. Its results are accepted for enrolment at Russian universities. 
International applicants can also take the EGE for enrolment to a university. 
In addition, universities conduct admissions tests in the form of a written or oral examination on the discipline corresponding to the chosen subject. Enrolment decisions are made based on their results. Some universities conduct separate admissions exams for international students.
 
Academic Competitions
Every year dozens of academic competitions at various levels are held in Russia and abroad. Winners and other participants who place highly in some of these competitions can expect enrolment in Russian universities without examinations or under preferential conditions. Foreigners can participate in international and Russian competitions as well as in those specially held for them by various groups of universities. 
 
Tests
Many Russian universities conduct tests individually or jointly and select talented international applicants based on the results. Representatives of universities visit various countries or send tests assignments to their colleagues abroad. The applicants with the best test results can expect preferential terms when enrolling at Russian universities.
 
 
GET AN INVITATION & APPLY FOR A STUDENT VISA

Applicants from countries with a visa free system with Russia can enter its territory by presenting their passport (the list of countries which have a visa free system with Russia is available on the Russian Foreign Ministry website).
In all other cases, applicants must present a student visa in addition to a document proving their identity. 
An invitation is required to apply for a student visa.
  • Invitations to Russia are issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia and the General Administration for Migration Issues of the Interior Ministry of Russia.
  • Applicants who obtained their place at a university in Russia through competitive selection (quotas) get their invitation at the instruction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia. At a Rossotrudnichestvo office, they are given the six-digit number of their invitation which they then quote when submitting the visa application.
  • If the applicant obtained their place at the university through a standard procedure or is a fee-paying student, the invitation will be sent by the university. You will need an original invitation to submit the visa application.

All the exercises and assignments given are always systemically in line with the teaching to ensure full grasp of the language. The teaching mechanisms are up to date with excellent study materials such as textbooks and DVDs. I always felt so welcome when I arrived every day.

  • Chinese class has been great, lots to learn and sometimes the thought of that makes it seem all too hard and impossible to learn but overtime with constant practice it started to make a whole lotta sense. i've been able to learn more of the greetings, numbers and ways of communicating basically and with more practice i'm certain Chinese would be more fluent for me, many thanks to Lextorah for this medium. xie xie, zaijian.
