Certain groups of foreigners, Russians living abroad and immigrants can apply for state scholarships on the same terms as Russian citizens once they pass entrance exams or Uniform State Examination (EGE).
Moreover, every year Russian
government provides so-called ‘state-funded spots’ at universities to
international applicants. In 2016, 15,000 such spots were granted.
The government scholarship includes:
* Free tuition for the entire duration of the chosen program;
* Maintenance
allowance (for the entire duration of study regardless of the candidate's
success). In 2016, an average scholarship amounted to 1,300 roubles a month
(approximately USD 21);
* Dormitory
accommodation (if available).
The government scholarship does
not include:
* Travel
costs;
* Voluntary health
insurance policy.
International students (university
graduates) who are completing internships in programs of additional vocational
education (professional training or career advancement) do not receive a
maintenance allowance, but do receive accommodation in the dormitory of their
university.
Allocation of quotas is carried out
by Rossotrudnichestvo (The
Federal Agency for the Commonwealth of Independent States, Compatriots Living
Abroad, and International Humanitarian Cooperation) through its international
network of offices, as well as through embassies
of Russia abroad.
Contact your university of choice to
find the best way to apply for a state scholarship. University’s International
Office will respond to your detailed letter (university contact details can
be found here).
