Study and living expenses in Russia

Study expenses

Studying in Russia is a high-quality, but very affordable option for many students. Depending on your field of study, tuition ranges from 2,000 to 8,000 USD annually, with added costs such as room and board and books ranging from 1,500 to 5,000 USD a year, depending on your chosen location.

Living and accommodation costs

Russia is currently ranked number 75 in a list of the highest cost of living on the planet. This is, of course, relatively low, meaning that students looking to study in the country will be able to stretch their savings further here than in other top destinations.

Rent in most major cities can cost an average of $550 for a 1-bedroom apartment, with basic utilities coming in at around $95 a month, depending on which season it is. Food is known to be incredibly inexpensive, as is nightlife.
