    FAQ
    A subject area is the field of knowledge that covers groups of program tracks a master's degree student can follow. The area of science you would like to specialize in, to be short.

    First, select a master's degree program in the subject area you are a winner in. Then, choose one or several universities that offer master's degree programs in this track.

    After confirming your proficiency in English or Russian, you can study in that language of tuition. If you need to improve your Russian, you will be offered a Russian language preparatory course.

    Your tuition fee will be paid by the Russian Federation. You will only have to cover your travel and accommodation costs, insurance and personal expenses.

    You will be enrolled in a specialization indicated in your registration form. Within this specialization, you can choose any program applicable to foreign students.

    If you meet all the selection criteria and provide the necessary documents promptly, you will be granted free tuition.

    No, if you succeeded in the final stage of Open Doors, you will not have to take any entrance exams.

    No, you will not have to pay for anything after your graduation.

    You will get the same scholarship as Russian students.
