ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Standard documents are required, such as the application form, a photocopy of your passport, a notarised Russian translation of your passport, and the diplomas and transcripts of your previous education. If the programme you are applying to is taught in English, you must document your language proficiency. If you will study in Russian, you must either prove your language proficiency or choose either the Russian preparatory year or the Foundation option.

Russian Preparatory Year

Students who want to study in one of the programmes taught in Russian can apply to the school without language proficiency. Depending on your Russian language level, you can enrol in the preparatory programme. At the end of the nine-month preparatory programme, they can obtain their language certificates and begin their programme.

SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Candidate students have two options for studying in Russia on a scholarship. The first of these is the scholarships awarded by the Republic of Türkiye. Students can obtain detailed information on this from the provincial and district directorates of national education.

YÖK Equivalence of Russian Universities

YÖK set the conditions for equivalence of studies abroad in 2019. Students who want to continue their education abroad must meet the specified equivalence conditions. The same conditions also apply to Russian universities with YÖK equivalence. What you need to know about the conditions for equivalence of studies abroad is as follows:

• Universities to be attended without meeting the ÖSYM exam participation conditions in Türkiye must be among the 1000 universities recognised by YÖK.
• If the university to be attended is not in the top 1000 ranking, then taking the ÖSYM exams is mandatory. In this regard, it is known that being within the ranking determined for each department is required. A student who takes the university exam in Türkiye must rank among the top 150 thousand in the field of law. In addition, it is mandatory to be within 240 thousand in the field of engineering and within the top 40 thousand in the field of medicine. Another thing to know about Russian universities with YÖK equivalence is that, in the other fields listed in the ÖSYM Guide, students must obtain at least the score of the last student placed in the relevant programmes in Türkiye.
• If the selected university is not in the top 1000 and the student has not obtained the required score, the student must meet the conditions set by YÖK. In this context, the requirements are: ACT: minimum 21 points, SAT 1: minimum 1000 points, Abitur minimum 4 points, International Baccalaureate (IB): minimum 28, French Baccalauréat: diploma score of minimum 12, Austrian Matura Diploma: minimum 2, GCE A Level Certificate: minimum 2 subjects, Italian Maturità: diploma score of minimum 70.
