Northwestern Institute of the Academy of National Economy. Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (Ranhigs, Presidential Academy): conditions for admission, reviews

One of the possible scenarios of action for those who apply for USE results.

1. First of all, you need to carefully study and preliminarily evaluate your own chances of admission. For example, this can be done with .

2. Next, apply to 5 universities for 3 budget specialties in each. The original, as an option, either remains at home, or is brought to a priority university, or to one where there is a high probability of admission. The next day, look for yourself for insurance in the competitive lists that are posted on the websites of universities so that there is no misunderstanding.

3. Specify the total budget places in each university, in each specialty of interest. It consists of the number of places allocated for the general competition + places for targeted students + places for preferential categories of applicants. Record the total number. Let, for example, it will be = 100.

4. Until July 26, as an option, you can take a temporary timeout and take no further action, because until that time, universities, as a rule, do not post ranked lists on their websites.

5. On July 27, universities open competitive lists. This suggests that on this day you can already see your place in the ranking, the competitive scores of other applicants, the number of submitted originals, the number of Olympiads entering without entrance examinations. However, it is too early to draw any concrete conclusions from this. At this stage, competitive listings provide only a general idea of ​​the competitive environment.

6. On July 30, universities publish orders for the enrollment of targeted students, preferential categories of applicants, Olympiads. Look at these orders and calculate how many people received according to these documents. Let's say it's 30 people.

7. Determine how many budget places are actually left for the general competition. To do this, subtract 30 from 100, and thus it becomes clear that there are 70 state-funded places left for applicants based on the results of the Unified State Examination (here are conditional numbers from our example).

8. See your place in the rankings. If this is a position from 1 to 70, with 99% certainty (1% for force majeure) we can say that if the originals are submitted on time (until August 3, inclusive), you will be enrolled in wave 1. If you go beyond these limits, there is a subject for reflection on how to proceed.

9. One of the options - in the period from July 30 to August 2, carefully observe the movement within the competitive list for each university and specialty, in terms of determining the exact number of submitted originals. Lists on the websites of universities should be updated every day.

10. On August 2, in the evening, you finally decide where to carry the original documents (in the event that you did not take them earlier). At the same time, take into account the fact that in the first wave of everything (including target recipients, beneficiaries, Olympiads) up to 80% of all budget places can be filled (in our particular case, this is up to 80 places, and in the second only 20% ( in our case it is 20 places.) The criterion for making a final decision may be the place taken in the rating, the number of submitted originals, the number of free places remaining after the release of the orders for enrollment, published on July 30th.

At the same time, it is necessary to understand the following - the number of smart people who will keep the originals at home until the last moment may turn out to be large, and therefore on August 3, a pandemonium from among those who brought the originals is possible in the selection committee. This naturally can radically change the entire competitive situation, although not a fact.

11. If you entered the 1st wave - congratulations! If that doesn't work, keep watching. competitive lists. At the same time, keep in mind that on August 3, orders will be issued for the enrollment of those applicants who entered the 1st wave. But this does not mean that all budget places that are reserved for the 1st wave will be completely filled. It is possible that some of the seats will remain free, and, in this case, they will be transferred to the 2nd wave, i.e., in our case, they will be added to 20.

Everything will become clear on this issue on August 3 in the evening. You just need to look at the orders for enrollment and count the number of accepted applicants. Next, perform elementary arithmetic calculations and determine the exact number of budget places that will be played in the 2nd wave.

12. Further, you can proceed according to the algorithm set out in paragraphs 9-10, with the only difference that the process of monitoring the competitive lists is carried out from August 4 to 5, and the final decision on the originals (if they have not yet been submitted) is made on 5 in the evening , because August 6 is the last day for receiving documents, and on the 7th, orders for the enrollment of those applicants who entered the 2nd wave will already be published. But, again, you need to understand that on August 6, there may be a sea in the selection committee, and everyone will try to hand over the originals. So to postpone everything until the last day or not - everyone's choice.

P.S. The above tactics of entering a university is not a panacea. This is just one of the possible options for actions that can lead to the desired result. At the same time, one cannot deny the randomness factor, which has increased significantly this year. It is he who will open the way to universities for those applicants who, despite their modest scores, already at the 1st stage brought admission committee original documents.

STEP 2: Choose a specialization

If you know exactly what profession you will study, great! See the US university program finder to select programs of interest.

Not sure which specialization to choose - see the list of subjects taught in American universities and the video below about professions that will be in demand in Russia and the world in the next 5-20 years.

STEP 4: Register on the university website

Often full list admission requirements and precise questions for motivational and letters of recommendation can only be found on the university application form. Therefore, it makes sense to register with the university's online application submission system in order to familiarize yourself with the exact admission requirements before you start working on preparing it.

In America, automated online university application systems are widespread, through which you can send the same application to several universities. The most popular are Common Application and Universal College Application.

You can only use one of these systems, so before registering, determine the list of desired universities and prioritize.

Unlike bachelor's programs, applications for admission to master's programs are submitted to universities directly - as a rule, through an online form on the website. Need help? Order the service of checking the application and documents.

STEP 5: Prepare documents for the application for admission

Requirements for foreign students entering colleges in America vary depending on the subject area, program, position of the university in the rankings, competition for a place. Regardless of the competition, most US universities will require you to provide a motivation letter, references, proof of English language proficiency and a document on previous education.

Motivation letter

In this essay, the applicant talks about his career goals and how the program he is going to will help him achieve them. This is perhaps the most important document for admission to most American universities. In our materials for self-preparation of a motivation letter, you can read how to get started and how to plan an essay, as well as examples of successful motivation letters.

Need help? Our editors who have studied at Oxford and LSE universities will be happy to assist in the preparation of a motivation letter.

A recommendation or characteristic to a student given by his teacher or employer is a mandatory document for admission to all study programs of any level. Often, applicants themselves have to compose the main text of the letter in order to provide it to the recommender for verification and signature. Materials on writing a letter of recommendation to a foreign university will help to cope with this task.

Need help? Order the recommendation preparation service.

Summary

When applying to a foreign university for master's and some bachelor's programs, a resume or CV is required. This is an opportunity to talk about the merits and achievements of the applicant, not shown in other documents of the application for admission.

Try to fit your resume on one A4 page and write not only about the place and time of your work, but also about the results.

Document confirming previous education

Without a document confirming the previous education, it is not possible to enroll an applicant. If a certificate of complete secondary education is not received or a bachelor's degree is not received at the time of application, then the applicant sends an extract with grades and its translation to the university.

STEP 6: Take IELTS or TOEFL - a test confirming knowledge of English

If your previous education was not in English, then you need to pass an English proficiency test.

And be patient. Terms of consideration of applications vary depending on the university and specialization. Perhaps the university will ask you to provide additional documents, for example, proof of solvency. As soon as admission is confirmed, the college will notify you of admission, deadlines, and tuition fees.

If you need to get a decision faster, write a request to representatives of American universities, and do not forget to indicate your application number.

Good luck! Break a leg!

Foreign universities are attractive because they are prestigious. A graduate of such an educational institution will certainly be competitive in the Russian labor market. Some of the students dream of working in one of the Western companies, and with a diploma from a good European university, this is also realistic.

It is believed that you can enter one of the universities in Europe only if you have an oligarch dad or talent. In fact, our compatriots were able to enter foreign universities without such advantages. You just need to correctly approach the choice of university.

Problems and first steps

You can’t just take it and suddenly enter a foreign university. Even in order to become a student of a Russian educational institution, preparation is needed. First of all, you should take into account the peculiarities of the foreign education system. In many universities, there is nothing to do with 11 classes, an extra preparatory course is needed. The easiest way out is to unlearn a year in national university and then apply to the university of your dreams. There are also special courses that prepare school graduates for admission to a foreign university.

Another problem is the language barrier. Entering a university in any country, you need not just to know the language. Universities require a standardized certificate stating that the applicant knows the language in high level. Not everywhere you can get by with standard English.

The third problem will be material support. Even if the applicant received a grant for education, he will have to live abroad for something. And this means that you need to be quite independent. You can start the path to independence - writing term papers or control papers is well paid.

So, given the problems described above, you need to take a number of steps:

Choose a country for study, university and department;
- learn more about the requirements for applicants;
- get acquainted with the professorial teaching staff;
- learn about the current research work carried out by the department;
- apply for language classes;
- prepare financially.

All these steps are very important. For example, having become acquainted with the teaching staff and current research work, you can think about how to go to a university on a grant. A grant can be issued if the applicant is interested in problems that are already being dealt with at the department.

By attending language courses, the prospective student is preparing to pass a specialized language proficiency test. You just need to remember that a standard hour a day is unlikely to be enough. You will have to devote time to the language at home, studying on your own. Otherwise, it is impossible to immerse yourself deeply in a foreign language and learn it like a native one. These are the very first steps that an applicant must take. Without them, one cannot enter a serious university.

The problem of choosing a country and a university

Ideally, an educational institution is selected as follows:

You decide in which country you want to get an education;
- you choose the university and department;
- then you just need to prepare and submit documents.

However, this method is not available to all students for one simple reason - for sure, training will be paid. Although sometimes a graduate manages to enroll in a dream university on a grant, here it’s how lucky. More often, applicants look for a university like this:

Choose universities that offer grants or high scholarships;
- carefully prepared;
- Submit documents.

In order not to lose the opportunity to realize a dream, it is better to first check all the decent universities in the country where you want to spend a few years. If there are absolutely no opportunities for admission, then in this case it is worth looking for universities in other countries.

Grant admission

It is easier to enter a university on a grant for a master's degree or for a doctorate degree. The requirements for such applicants are different. The applicant must have scientific work or research in the relevant field.

You can search for grants on websites, information is provided by:

the universities themselves;
- platforms for work with foreign students;
- government websites;
- Russian resources large companies.

Sometimes Russian firms are ready to pay for the training of specialists abroad. As a rule, these are large organizations. However, you should not rely on such luck. It is better to take a closer look at the proposals of the universities themselves and foreign government. The authorities may be interested in attracting students from other countries.

Applying to a university on credit

You can go to university on credit. In fact, this is quite real, banks are willing to cooperate with such students. However, in order to receive funds for training, you do not have to immediately run to bank offices.

To begin with, a future student will have to go through the same path as an applicant who enters on a grant or has money. That is, it is necessary:

Pass a language test;
- prepare for admission;
- submit documents;
- receive a certificate that the commission has been successfully completed;
- conclude an agreement on paid training.

Already with the contract in hand and a package of documents, the student can go to the bank. Such applications are considered carefully, and a positive response from the bank is almost guaranteed here. Desirable borrowers for banks are students who enter business faculties. For example, MBA students will almost certainly get paid.

Unexpected requirements of universities

From foreign universities, you can expect the requirement to confirm their knowledge, for example, with the help of additional testing. V individual cases you will also have to take an additional course after graduation. However, sometimes the conditions for admission can be puzzling. For example, it is known for sure that universities in the UK and Japan need to confirm the financial solvency of students.

If you decide to become a student at a Japanese or English institution, you will almost certainly have to provide a bank statement. It must have a certain minimum amount, which will be considered an "airbag".

When a student enters a university in Turkey or the Czech Republic (as well as universities in some other countries), he may be offered to learn the language during the year in specialized courses. This is the best solution, because in these courses the applicant will get used not only to the language base, but also to special terms. They will come in handy when passing the commission.

Language exams

In many universities for admission it is required to present a document on knowledge of the language. As a rule, this is a certificate with a certain validity period. Individual certificates are perpetual, they are always valid. Language tests are almost always paid, some types of testing are only a couple of times a year. The most popular exams are conducted over the Internet, which makes life easier for applicants.

You need to be well prepared for the test. The test covers all aspects of language proficiency, including writing skills and colloquial speech. For an example, you can ask,. Almost all types of language exams are similar to the most popular test.

There are several common tests that students take before entering:

TOEFL;
- IELTS;
- GMAT;
- DELE;
- "TestDaF" (DSH).

TOEFL, IELTS and GMAT - tests for English language. The first two tests are almost similar, TOEFL can be considered the American analogue of IELTS. Before you prepare for admission to a university, it is better to clarify which certificate would be preferable. Certificates are valid for 2 years after passing the exam. Some universities require that no more than one and a half years have elapsed after passing at the time of admission. The GMAT is taken by applicants applying to business schools like the MBA. The results of this test are valid for 5 years.

The DELE certificate is perpetual and is accepted by all universities in Spain. "TestDaF" is a test of knowledge German language. The DALF certificate will be required for applicants entering educational institutions in France (for example, the Sorbonne), and the results of the CELI test are needed when entering Italian universities.

There are also other specialized tests. For example, all universities in Japan accept certificates of "Nihongo noryoku shiken". The Japanese language test takes place only twice a year. The certificate is valid for only 2 years, then you need to re-test.

Final Steps

Sending documents to the university

If you have chosen a country and a university, have the results of a language test in your hands and are ready to storm the university of your dreams, then all that remains is to prepare and send a package of documents. In no guide you can find an accurate and complete list of documents for admission to a foreign university, because each educational institution has its own requirements. However, some papers are required in most cases. So, you will definitely need:

transcript;
- a copy of the document on education, certified by a notary and translated into a foreign language;
- language certificate;
- autobiography in a foreign language;
- several letters of recommendation in a foreign language;
- documents on the financial position;
- A completed application form.

As a document of education, you can use a certificate, diploma or certificate from the university. Students who have not yet completed their studies have the opportunity to take an extract from the statement. As for the transcript, this paper can cause some problems. After all, not every school gives it. If educational institution does not provide a transcript, you will have to prepare it yourself.

Not all universities require financial documents from applicants. It has already been said earlier that an account statement will definitely be needed when applying to universities in England and Japan.

When preparing documents, it is very important not to forget about the deadlines for submitting applications. Indeed, in Europe, many universities complete the admission of students by the end of July. If you delay, you may be late. Although being late in this case will give the applicant an extra year to prepare, so you should not despair.

When to get a visa?

Applicants often make mistakes when obtaining a visa. Some begin to apply for a visa before sending documents to the university. In fact, there is a clear algorithm of actions that must be followed. A visa can be obtained without any problems only after the applicant has been enrolled in the university, and the funds have been credited to the bank account of the educational institution.

Only after that follows:

Fill out the application form on the website of the embassy;
- collect a package of documents for visiting the visa center.

The package of documents must include:

Payment confirmation document;
- enrollment document;
- a receipt stating that you have paid the visa fee;
- financial document.

An account statement is suitable as a financial document. Data from the sponsor's account is also considered. student visa you will receive in about two weeks. Formally, the period for consideration of such applications is 15 days.

It is not worth rushing to get a visa, you need to wait until the funds come to the account of the university, but it is also not recommended to hesitate. After all, you can get a place in a student hostel only after obtaining a visa. If you delay visiting the visa center, you can be left without a place to stay.

Where to live abroad?

Abroad, you can live in a hostel for students, on campus, in an apartment or in a family. There may not be a place on campus, and living in a hostel does not suit students for some reason. Renting an apartment is sometimes expensive, especially since there are not always free living quarters. For example, in London it is difficult to rent an apartment.

A great option for a student is homestay accommodation. It may seem that homestay and renting are one and the same, but in fact there are serious differences. It is cheaper to live in a family, and this is only one of the advantages. Usually families accept several students at once for accommodation.

When you are in a family, you get unique opportunity observe the life of foreigners and their habits. This experience is simply priceless.

What else needs to be considered?

There are little things that applicants do not pay attention to when entering. Then these shortcomings cause a lot of problems. For example, students dreaming of Paris need to be aware of the bureaucratic red tape that one has to go through when living in this city. France offers free education to foreign students, but it also requires compliance with a number of formalities.

When traveling to a foreign country, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with its norms and customs, otherwise there is a risk of getting into an uncomfortable position. This applies to both Western and Eastern countries. It would be unwise to go to a foreign country without knowing its culture.

Separately, it is worth mentioning the language tests. In many prestigious educational institutions there is a minimum passing score. The higher your score on the language test, the better. After all, Harvard or Oxford will not be accepted with the same results with which you can get into any average university. Therefore, preparation for language testing should be given Special attention. By the way, before taking the exam, it is recommended to look at the requirements for the minimum passing score for such an exam.

Is a prestigious university always the best choice?

Western psychologists have recently been investigating the problems faced by students in prestigious international well-known universities like Yale or Oxford. Some of them concluded that not always a prestigious university is the best solution for a student. Such universities have several disadvantages. By enrolling in such an educational institution, you:

You find yourself in a highly competitive environment;
- you can not count on help;
- will experience psychological pressure;
- must match high standards, including performance.

Most of the students are not the first in the group. There is always someone smarter, more capable, more talented. Of course, if you are a genius, then you have a direct path to a prestigious university. Then they will look up to you and feel envy. But the average student will always catch up with someone ahead. Psychological dissatisfaction and competition lead to the fact that many students leave the university in the second or third year. Someone can not stand it after the first course. In any of the prestigious universities, an intensive training program.

Psychologists have called this phenomenon “the effect of a small fish in a large pond” - in other words, you can always be “eaten”. Entering into average university, which is not popular and does not flicker on the front pages of specialized publications, on the contrary, you become a "big fish in a small pond" and get benefits.

In such a university there is less competition, and students are more often ready to help a friend. Here you can stand out and even become the first. After graduating from such a university, you will still get advantages in the labor market. Some of the little-known universities occupy a solid place in international rankings. It is up to you to decide which educational institution to choose, but the results of the study should always be remembered.

Conditional offer and unconditional offer

If you are enrolled in a university, then you will receive an unconditional offer - this is a letter of unconditional enrollment. There is also a so-called conditional offer - conditional crediting. Such letters are sent to applicants who can be enrolled, but subject to certain requirements.

It is not uncommon for a conditional acceptance letter to be received by young people whose language test certificate has expired. Sometimes applicants are required to pass some kind of exam. In any case, conditional credit is not such a bad sign.

Universities that are available for admission

There are universities where you can study almost free of charge or for a nominal fee. Sometimes it is even cheaper for a student to enroll in one of foreign universities than to study in hometown. These are not some supernumerary educational institutions, but decent institutions like the Sorbonne and the Charles University in Prague.

Charles University: the oldest university in Central Europe

This university is called the most prestigious higher education institution in the Czech Republic. And this is true, because the Charles University is known all over the world. It was founded in the 14th century, and today this university has as many as 17 faculties. Charles University is compared with Bologna, Sorbonne and Oxford. One of the advantages of the university is that you can study here completely free of charge with one amendment: the student must be trained in the Czech language.

There are English-language programs at the Charles University, but they are paid. Therefore, before entering, you need to think carefully. Czech complicated, but you can still master it. Moreover, the Charles University offers specialized annual language courses. In such courses, the applicant receives all the necessary knowledge in order to successfully pass the exams.

At Charles University, upon admission, you will have to pass from 2 to 4 exams in Czech. The minimum level of language proficiency is B2. This so-called "high average level". Institute of Language and vocational training at the Charles University necessary knowledge, level B2 is achievable in a year. Training courses take into account the future specialization of the student.

Theoretically, you can prepare for the exams on your own, mastering the language at home, but you will not be able to get special knowledge. The applicant simply will not be able to take into account all the subtleties of the upcoming testing.

Sorbonne: the pride of France

There is a university in France whose name is known all over the world. More precisely, this is not even a university, but a system of universities. It's about about the Sorbonne - an educational institution that is on a par with Oxford and Bologna. This is a prestigious university, which is available to Russian students. Free in France public education, so the doors of the Sorbonne are potentially open to everyone.

It is only important that the applicant be ready to go through the notorious French bureaucracy. Concerning language exam, then some programs of the Sorbonne are conducted in English. It accepts TOEFL and IELTS certificates. To study in French, you need to get a DALF certificate.

Many Russians study at the Sorbonne. They say it's easier to get here master's program under the system of "double diplomas". This is true, but future bachelors also have every chance to settle within the walls of this educational institution. There is a lot of information about the documents that are needed when entering this university, even on Russian websites. Some students managed to publish articles about the successful experience of entering the university. So, if desired, the applicant will find everything necessary for preparation.

Universities in Germany

There are dozens of higher educational institutions in Germany where foreign students can study. Moreover, the state allocates quotas specifically for free education, but only if two conditions are met:

The applicant must have an excellent knowledge of German;
- the level of knowledge of the applicant must correspond to the level of knowledge given by the German gymnasium.

Of course, the latter can be a problem for a Russian graduate who has just left the walls of the school. After all, according to German standards, he will not be enough for 1 year. However, you can learn the language, as well as get all the missing knowledge, at the Studiencolleg courses. This is a preparatory annual program for foreign students. Courses in Germany are paid, but this investment will definitely pay off. Indeed, in the future it will be possible to study completely free of charge, the main thing is to find funds for living in the country. The most expensive city to live in is Frankfurt am Main.

University of Helsinki and other universities in Finland

In Finland, you can get a free education or get a diploma for a nominal fee. This university regularly offers students grants for education. Probably the only drawback of the university is that almost all undergraduate programs are conducted here in Finnish. The language can be mastered in additional courses.

But the University of Helsinki is very attractive for masters with knowledge of English. Approximately 40 programs are available to future masters if they intend to enter here. The most important thing is that it is really possible to get a grant here. at this university, too.

In Finland, private universities offer expensive education, but public universities are relatively affordable. In some cases, a student will have to pay no more than $150 per semester. Living in the country will cost about $ 1,000 a month, if you do not show off too much.

University of Turku is another Finnish university where you can get higher education is free. Moreover, the programs here are conducted mainly in English, so the applicant does not need to learn any other language.

There are several reasons to enter a Finnish university:

Many universities here recognize the Russian certificate;
- students can count on scholarships;
- Students are allowed to work.

Advantages of universities in Austria

In Austria, most universities are paid, but the fees in some educational institutions are moderate. Studying here is cheaper than in Zurich or London. However, the main advantage of Austrian universities is not at all in this. Teaching in universities is conducted mainly in German, so it is enough to pass the standard DSH test.

Upon admission, they do not look at the passing score. entrance exams Universities don't offer either. If the student has any shortcomings, then he can then retake the exams at a convenient time. If you want to enroll without too much stress, then Austrian universities are the perfect option.

In Austria, they purposefully decided not to arrange entrance exams. Indeed, after a semester, many students begin to understand that they have chosen the wrong specialty. If students had to constantly take exams, they would hardly change departments. And the system adopted today facilitates the transition of a student from one faculty to another.

Universities of Poland, Lithuania and Estonia

Free education in Poland is available only to applicants who have a "Polish card". If you still plan to enter one of the local universities, then in this case:

Choose a private educational institution;
- Learn Polish.

Programs are mainly conducted in Polish, the requirement for applicants upon admission is a level of knowledge not lower than B1. Some universities require level B2. Private universities in Poland are more accessible, here education is about 2-3 times cheaper than in public educational institutions.

In Lithuania, ISM University is worthy of attention. This is one of the most famous business schools, so you should not expect that studies will be free. For a semester, you will have to pay about 1700-2000 euros.

In Estonia, an applicant may be interested in the University of Tartu, which is known for being a member of the Coimbra group. This university cooperates with fifty other higher educational institutions from 19 countries. The annual cost of studying at the University of Tartu can exceed 3,000 euros. But the student will receive a "crust" of one of the most prestigious educational institutions.

Universities of the CIS countries are not so accessible, it is much easier for an applicant to enter any university in Germany or Austria. In countries such as Poland and Lithuania, it is sometimes difficult to obtain a visa - there are too many requirements for entry. Moreover, the cost of living in these states can be the same as in large German cities.

Online education at a foreign university

At some universities, you can get an education without leaving your home. Online learning is not uncommon these days. In fact, a Russian student can easily finish as Russian university remotely, and one of prestigious universities Europe or America. The difference will be only in the complexity of preparation for admission.

Benefits of online education

There are several reasons for choosing distance learning:

Such education will cost less;
- the student will not need to break away from work;

If you enter the most ordinary faculty, then you will have to live in the country where you study, or make regular trips to take exams. With distance education, this is excluded, therefore, you save time and money. A student does not have to think about where to live, where to get funds for living abroad and how to deal with bureaucratic troubles.

Online learning is ideal for busy people. If a person works and has a family, then a trip abroad can only be a dream. But that's no reason to give up quality education. European universities even offer refresher courses. In America, some of the universities provide and free programs learning.
