This will enable them to pursue Bachelor's, Master's, Specialist, and Postgraduate Programs in Russia's leading universities free of cost. The cost of higher education is relatively cheaper because it is highly subsidised by the Government of the Russian Federation. Our universities also provide assistance as many have special adaptation programs and support systems for Indian students. Mr. Ravi Chandran commented that, There are more than 300,000 international students from 200 different countries enrolled in the 600-odd government universities across Russia.

The institutions have made sure that the safety of Indian students and their education are not impacted by the external geopolitical situations . Moreover eight weeks of intense training offered every year by Academy for Foreign Medical Graduates, Delhi, from second year of study to final year is a promising feature that guarantees increase in pass percentage of students , he added.
