Application and education fees
For the full support service in getting admission to the university to study under contracts for paid educational services (paid education under a contract), a service fee is collected. The amount of the service fee is determined by the existing visa regime with the country of the applicant, and a competition for admission to a particular university. For visa-free countries, the service fee is from 15,000 rubles to 30,000 rubles, for visa countries, it is from 25,000 rubles to 40,000 rubles. This amount is paid through a personal account on Russia.Study as part of the application for education under the contract. The operator also reserves the right to provide discounts.
Education in Russia costs by 5-7 times cheaper, than in Europe and the USA: the cost varies from $500 to $6 000 per year.
