    University Hostels In Russia

    Russian Universities provide comfortable hostels to all the international students with all the necessary facilities:

    Almost all the hostels are more like studio apartments i.e. with attached private bathrooms, toilets, and kitchens. The hostels have a centralized heating system. There are separate arrangements & blocks for boys and girls. The hostels are fully furnished with beddings, shower room, washbasin, 24/7 security guards & reception, laundry, cleaning, WIFI, washing personnel & reading rooms, etc.

    All University hostels have the following spots within the walking distance;

  • Hospital / Medical Store
  • Post office
  • Bank
  • Super Market
  • Barbershop
  • ATM
  • Most of the university hostels are located within walking distance or/and closer to the bus stops.

    This gives students three advantages

    1. They can wake up later
    2. Save money on transportation,
    3. Arrive at the university earlier.

    Advantages of studying MBBS in Russia

    Standard of Education: The universities in Russia provide world-class education with advanced techniques & highly qualified training staff.

    Worldwide Recognition: The medical universities of Russia are highly ranked & recognized by WHO, WFME, ECFMG, UNESCO, European Medical Council, African Medical Councils, Medical Council of India (MCI), Pakistan Medical Commission (PMC), and all other medical councils.

    Affordable MBBS Fees: MBBS in Russia is much cheaper as compared to the USA, UK, Canada & European countries but the degree has same worth. That’s why more than 290,000 students join Russian Universities every year from India, China, Pakistan, Nigeria, Kazakhstan, Europe & Africa.

    English Medium: The medium of instruction for foreign students studying at medical universities in Russia is English.

    100% Visa From Pakistan: University admission & Visa process for Russia is easy and simple as compared to other European countries. Also, the Visa ratio for Pakistani students applying for the MBBS is almost 100%.

    No Entrance Exam: There is no entrance or language proficiency exam (IELTS/TOEFL) for admission to MBBS in Russian medical universities.

    Cost of Living: Living cost in Russia is much lower than in other European countries but you can enjoy the same lifestyle & diversity. This has become an effective reason for many to select Russia as their destination to study MBBS.

    Personal Development: Students studying in Russia are encouraged to take part in other extracurricular activities like seminars and conferences to build their interest and confidence for overall learning and development.

    Permanent Settlement: Unlike other European countries, Russia offers permanent residency opportunities for all International students from every country, so they can manage to do work in Russia after degree completion.

    Diverse Culture: Russia has a good diversified structure of students. Students from many countries are studying there.

    No Racism, No Religious issues: Russians are world leaders for decades. Unlike some European countries, they will never make you feel inferior to them. They are known to be the most welcoming & kind community. They are deeply attached to social norms & moral values.

    Disadvantages of studying MBBS in Russia

    European Curriculum: As Russia is a transcontinental country, the western 23% of the country is located in Europe. Thus, the education system is highly influenced by Europe. Unlike India & Pakistan, European & Russian medical universities have very unique & advanced curriculum and it focuses on the overall practical growth and self-development of the students without putting them under immense pressure. This, however, is a problem for some students as they don’t feel comfortable & motivated enough.

    Climatic Conditions: Russia has a cold climate. One could expect frequent snowfalls from October till March.

    Language Barrier: The official language in Russia is Russian. So, it sometimes becomes difficult to communicate with the local community.

    Long Time For Visa Letter: Though the admission process is very simple & smooth, but students have to wait longer (almost 30 working days) to receive their Visa sponsor letters because it is directly issued by the Interior Ministry of Russia.

    Homesickness: Sometimes students feel homesick. But we will consider this a temporary problem, as with the passage of time students start communicating with local & other foreign students and find good friends.

    Russia vs Ukraine War: Russia’s military escalation on Ukraine (24-02-2022) has prompted the EU, USA, UK & Canada to impose economic & travel sanctions against the Russian Government. The aim was to limit customary trade, foreign investments & financial relations with Russia.
