STUDY IN RUSSIA

Russia has top flight universities that offer qualitative education. These universities offer courses ranging from medicine, engineering, sciences, humanities etc.
Today, I want to talk about education in russia and the cost associated with it.
First, lets take a look at the tuition fee.
Universities in russia charge very low tuition fees as $2000 per academic year. Though it varies depending on the course and university involved. Tuition fees for medicine, engineering, design and architecture are usually on the high side. Their fees usually range from $2500-$3500 per session. Note that you can also consider study in Bordeaux University in France.
ACCOMODATION.
Basically two types- hostel and off-campus. Cost of hostel accomodation range from $150-$200 per monthly. Off-campus accomodation are usually on the high side, between $250-$400 monthly.
FOOD.
Food is extremely cheap in russia! For as low as $100-$150, you can feed for a month.
But its largely dependent on the eating habbit of student.
LANGUAGE TRAINING.
This is compulsory for international students who don't speak russian or ukrainian language. Since courses are taught with these two languages, russian education authority demands that all students applying to study in russia undergo language training. This is usually carried out in the first year of admission and will cost the student approximately $1500.
Students who are succesfull will then be allowed to study.
So all things put together, to study in russia, one needs about $3500-$4000 annually for tuition, food, accomodation etc.
If you are interested in studying in russia, kindly visit RACUS website(www.edurussia.ru) or any of the branches around you.
RACUS is a body used by the russian government to help international students secure admission into russian universities and they charge $400 for their services.
