A guide to the hostels of the leading Moscow universities. A look from outside and from within.

RIA Novosti correspondent Indira Valeeva decided to find out how the situation is with the existing hostels in Moscow.

There are 315 hostels in Moscow, which are owned by state universities. They are home to 470 thousand students who came to Moscow from all over Russia and from foreign countries. Despite such large numbers, more than 65 thousand nonresident students cannot get a place in a hostel - there are simply not enough of them. Students complained about this situation to President Medvedev last fall during a meeting in Skolkovo. After that, the president held a meeting on the social status of students, at which he promised that new dormitories of various types would be built, all illegal residents not related to the student body would be evicted, and that the Internet in all dormitories would be free.

In the meantime, almost all nonresident students are forced to pay quite a lot of money (500-700 rubles) for the slow Internet, since in many hostels there is a monopoly on the Internet. As for illegal immigrants, MSGU (Pedagogical University) is most famous for them.

"Students rarely get dorm rooms and only if you pay the commandant for them. In the hostel at VDNKh, the first three floors are leased to migrant families. Anyone from the street can spend the night there for 300 rubles," says Maria, a graduate of the Moscow State Pedagogical University.

In most universities, the problem with illegal immigrants was solved several years ago. In 2007-2008, when the Unified State Exam was introduced throughout the country, the flow of visiting applicants increased significantly. Many were denied a hostel, but after complaints from their parents, it turned out that there were places in the hostels, only they were not given to students at all. Now illegal immigrants in Moscow hostels are more difficult to find, but freshmen are still sorely lacking places.

"In my first year I wrote an application for a hostel, they told me that as soon as a place appeared, they would call me. They called me in my fifth year, very on time!" - says a graduate of the Moscow State Linguistic University (Linguistic University) Marina.

On March 1 this year, the President was presented with the program "On Replenishing the Deficit of Places in Dormitories for Nonresident Students", according to which the cost of building all the necessary dormitories will cost the state 21.1 billion rubles. Considering that the project is still under consideration, no solution to the problem of housing for nonresident students is expected in the near future.

MIPT (Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology)
MIPT is a Western-style campus. This campus in Dolgoprudny resembles a campus not only in structure, but also in spirit - the atmosphere of a scientific university is felt there. In "nerds" (special rooms for preparing homework), someone is always rustling with pages of textbooks and synopses.

The main contingent of residents is the guys, it seems, they know all the few girls of the university by name. Young scientists apply their talents and skills in practice, improving the dormitory. In one of the buildings, there are magnetic locks on the doors of common rooms - laundry, exercise machines. The students made them themselves, so that everyone who wants to take advantage of the benefits of the hostel can receive a magnetic card with information programmed on it - which rooms he can enter and which he cannot.

Hostel location- 5 minutes walk from the Novodachnaya railway station, the train goes to the Savelovsky railway station for about 20 minutes.

Terms of provision- the hostel is provided to all nonresident students for the entire period of study and to the majority of Muscovites in the first three courses. First of all, the hostel is allocated to those who travel from home to campus for more than two hours.

Distance from the university

Conditions

Facilities- a toilet and a kitchen are on the floor, and a shower room is one on five floors.

Hostel entrance- until one in the morning. But they are allowed in later, you need to warn about this in advance.

Dormitory advantages- students live on campus, right on the campus. Even Muscovites can live there, so as not to waste time on the road. There is an active local government at MIPT, students do a lot themselves - from repairing their own rooms to repairing public premises. For example, in one dormitory, the guys themselves made a smoking room so that fellow faculty members would not smoke on the stairs. But no one uses the smoking-room yet - it is still more pleasant on the stairs.

Cons of a hostel- not very good living conditions, on such a large territory students could be accommodated and more comfortable. There are very old, unrepaired buildings. Students live far from the city. On the one hand, this gives a reason to be less distracted from difficult studies, on the other hand, it isolates children from society outside the university.

Egor, a fourth-year student: “Have you heard this phrase -“ He seems to be a decent person, but he drinks like an MIPT specialist! ”? They really drink a lot here. And what else to do, there are no girls here, but somehow it is necessary to be distracted from studying.”

Alexey, a fifth-year student: "In the summer, our life is in full swing: a lot of people who sing and play guitars, students launch radio-controlled airplanes, play frisbee, football."

NRNU MEPhI (Moscow Engineering Physics Institute)
MEPhI dormitories, built about five years ago, are considered one of the best in Moscow. Students actually live in their own apartments with a spacious kitchen, balcony, shower and toilet. The layout of the apartments is not bad - there is a spacious corridor in the double and three-bedroom apartments, and in the large room in the one-bedroom apartment there is a bay window, which makes it very cozy.

The situation is much worse with the decoration of rooms and especially the bathroom, kitchen and bath - it is clear that the materials used are cheap, so they very quickly become damp and even moldy. This is partly the fault of the students themselves.

Most of the apartments and rooms that I visited in the MEPhI dormitory are a deplorable sight - heaps of clothes, mountains of packages for chips, bottles, dirty kitchens, where, of course, cockroaches immediately start. Apparently, housework is something too mundane for young physicists and programmers.

Hostel location- 20 minutes walk from the Kashirskaya metro station.

Number of residents- 2500 people.

Terms of provision- dormitories are not given to all freshmen, but only to those who have scored a sufficient number of points, that is, more than the passing score for the budget department.

Distance from the university- 15 minutes walk from MEPhI.

Conditions- one-room apartments for three to four people, two-room apartments for five people (2 and 3 people per room), three-room apartments for 6-7 people.

Facilities- the apartment has a toilet, bathroom, kitchen, corridor, balcony. The kitchen is equipped with the necessary appliances: refrigerator and electric stove.

Hostel entrance- according to the rules, the entrance to the hostel is until 1 am, but many violate this rule. If you wake up the guard, he will let you into the room, but you need to register in a special journal of latecomers.

Dormitory advantages- accommodation in apartments with all conveniences, free internet with good speed, close to the university.

Cons of a hostel- not all students have enough space. Nevertheless, every year the enrollment of freshmen at MEPhI increases, and the administration is forced to increase the number of residents - if earlier there were no more than three people in the rooms, now they have begun to populate four students.

Sasha, a sixth year student at MEPhI: "A hostel is a bunch of people. To the left, to the right, my best friends are everywhere. I always associate a hostel with fun. Outside the hostel, it’s commonplace, but here is a completely different atmosphere. Although I liked the old hostel better. Yes, the conditions were there. worse, the toilet, shower and kitchen are only on the floors, but this brought us closer together. And now we are moving away from each other. "

Lyosha, a fifth-year student at MEPhI: "The security is sometimes tense. We only have an entrance until one in the morning, and even if they come from the next building of the hostel a little later, they already come in. They also check the bags so that there is no alcohol there. The guys somehow dragged a huge bag of beer onto rope to the thirteenth floor. And on the eleventh it caught on something, and everything fell down. That was a sight! "

RSUH (Russian State University for the Humanities)
The dormitory of the RSUH at the address "Kirovogradskaya street, house number 25" was glorified in the song Noize MC. The musician himself lived there until he was finally tired of the life of the hostel. The song, in fact, describes the horrors of everyday life, and not the very conditions of the hostel. For example, according to the line "And next to the bathroom there is a toilet" you can generally judge about "luxury", which you will not find in every hostel - in many of them the toilets are shared and located at the end of the corridor, and there may be only one room with shower cabins. building.

At RGGU, this is much better, although there are also enough problems - mold grows on the walls in the bathrooms, which cannot be washed off, just like yellow stains from water. Students demanded to change bathrooms, but the university has not yet allocated money for this. Many students make their own redecoration of the rooms, because some of them are a deplorable sight - rags of wallpaper hanging from the wall, leaking ceilings and unclosed windows.

Hostel location- 5 minutes from the metro station st. Academician Yangel.

Hostel type- block type.

Number of residents- 860 people.

Terms of provision- First-year students are not provided with a hostel. You can queue up for a place in the hostel. If you come to the resettlement department every day and remind you of yourself, then in six months you can move in. True, this does not apply to residents of the Moscow region, even distant ones. They are given a hostel last. Someone settles in only in the third, fourth year, and before that time must rent a room or apartment.

Distance from the university- about an hour from the educational building on Novoslobodskaya.

Conditions- blocks of two rooms, three people live in one, two in the other.

Amenities a - there is a toilet and a bathroom in the block.

Hostel entrance- at any time for those living in the hostel.

Dormitory advantages- amenities in the block, no more than three people live in rooms, next to the metro.

Cons of a hostel- freshmen are not accommodated, rooms are poorly renovated, very old plumbing, far from the center and the university.

Julia, Master's student at the Russian State University for the Humanities: “Someone is very unlucky with neighbors. My friend lived with a girl who always went to bed at 10 pm. And my friend from the philology department, she came late from school, and then she had to read a lot at home. claimed that she could not sleep not only by the light of a night lamp, but also when the pages rustled.

We also have problems with our neighbors in the block. It seems that they save up dirty clothes for a month and then wash everything in one day. They dry everything in the bathroom, there is nowhere else. So our whole bathtub is hung with jeans, dresses, T-shirts - and they think that with this humidity it will dry out fine. And we can't even wash normally - things are everywhere, and dripping from them. "

MGIMO (Moscow State Institute of International Relations)
MGIMO has four dormitories, all of which are located in different places: on Profsoyuznaya, in Teply Stan, in Tsaritsyno and on Vernadsky Avenue, near the university itself. In Teply Stan and Tsaritsyno - apartment type. I decided to visit a hostel for foreign citizens on Vernadsky Avenue and a hostel on Profsoyuznaya.

Both dorms are more like economy class hotels - at the entrance sits not an impudent security guard or a grumpy guard, but an intelligent-looking concierge in a suit. Elegant students emerge from the rooms, obviously not dressed for a scholarship. Students of a hostel for foreigners on Vernadsky Avenue do not receive a scholarship - almost all foreigners study at MGIMO on a contract basis and pay 4,500 rubles a month for a hostel.

Mostly foreign youth from China, Korea, Central Asia, and the CIS countries study at MGIMO. Citizens of Central and Western Europe also live in the MGIMO hostel, but these are mainly exchange students who came to Russia for one or two semesters.

Usually people from different countries are accommodated in the same room. For example, the Azerbaijani Aziza, who took me on a tour of the hostel, used to live with an Albanian woman, then with a French woman, and now her neighbor is Italian. From Aziza's window, you can see a rather large parking lot, where I could not see a single domestic car. Studying at MGIMO is not a cheap pleasure, and mostly well-to-do guys and girls live in the university dormitory.

The hostel on Novocheremushkinskaya Street (Profsoyuznaya metro station) is a little simpler, although it also leaves a pleasant impression. Most of those living in it are students of the budgetary department.

Hostel location- right at the tram stop, 10-15 minutes walk from the Profsoyuznaya metro station.

Terms of provision- the hostel is provided to everyone. Someone manages to immediately get into a block room, someone has to live in a room without a shower and toilet in the junior years, but then there is an opportunity to move.

Distance from the university- 40-60 minutes with two transfers.

Conditions- in the corridor rooms: two or three places, at the beginning of the year it happens that the fourth one takes over. In block rooms there are two or three rooms for two or three people and a spacious corridor where you can equip something like a kitchen, although students are not allowed to keep electric stoves. All household appliances - a refrigerator, a microwave oven - are bought by students themselves.

Facilities- those who live in corridor rooms are forced to use the toilet on the floor and shower on the first floor. There is a toilet and a bathroom in the block. Boys are relocated to blocks less often because they are usually less clean and do not clean up after themselves. Shared showers and toilets are regularly cleaned by a technician. Kitchens for all residents are located on the floor, two on each.

Hostel entrance- Previously, it was until two, then it was done until one o'clock, after the riots on Manezhnaya Square it was reduced to 00.30. The official reason is "the aggravation of the crime situation in Moscow." The guards let students in after half past twelve, but the student must write an explanatory note in this case.

Dormitory advantages- comfortable block rooms, more or less clean corridors and kitchens, brick, not block building in a good area.

Cons of a hostel- unequal conditions, someone lives practically in apartment conditions, and someone is forced to use a shared shower and toilet.

Artem, a fourth-year student at MGIMO: “Unfortunately, in recent years, the university has begun to increase enrollment in faculties, while not providing the required number of places in dormitories. Therefore, in our dormitory, three people live in almost all rooms that are designed for two. This is terribly inconvenient and, in fact, contradicts the housing code (the minimum number of square meters per person does not meet the requirements of the law.) When I was in my first year, under the old director, many people knocked out a place for themselves for a bottle of cognac, while others were given a “dead soul.” four of us had to live in double rooms! There is another point here: at the beginning of each academic year, we close the dining room and put 14 people there! Then, within 2 months, they are resettled to the places of the expelled. "

RUDN (Peoples' Friendship University of Russia)
Perhaps, everyone should visit the RUDN University campus. This is a whole town in the south-west of Moscow, where you can see people of any skin color, speaking completely different languages ​​and coming from all over the world - Asia, Africa, Latin America. Most of them study and live at RUDN University for free - either the countries of these regions send them to Moscow at public expense, or their education is paid for from the Russian budget.

Most come from not very rich and, one might even say, insufficiently civilized countries. Probably, this fact can be associated with frequent fires, which most often occur in RUDN dormitories precisely through the fault of the residents themselves - many make a mess that does not contribute to the creation of safe conditions. Every few hours, the commandant or attendant walks through all the floors with a plunger - many students throw food directly into the sink, from which it constantly clogs up.

Hostel location- 10-15 minutes by bus from Yugo-Zapadnaya or Belyaevo metro stations.

Number of residents- more than 8 thousand people.

Terms of provision- the hostel is provided to almost all foreign students. It is much more difficult for students from Russian regions to get a dormitory, only a few places are allocated for each faculty, first of all, they go to beneficiaries and Olympiads.

Distance from the university- educational buildings are located across the street from residential ones.

Conditions- in most buildings, students live in small corridor-type rooms.

Facilities- in most buildings, the toilet and kitchen are on the floor, and the shower room is in the basement.

Dormitory advantages- an amazing variety of cultures, cheap and delicious food. RUDN University is a real campus, resembling Western ones in shape, although, alas, no in terms of conditions.

Cons of a hostel- dirt, odors unusual for Europeans, conflicts between students from different countries, which do not always get along with each other. It is also hard for those who study in complex faculties - physics and mathematics, medicine. Students in the humanities are much easier to study, so they get in the way of their hectic lifestyle for those who need to really learn.

For many foreigners, admission to RUDN University is a start in life. And no matter how they scold the conditions of the hostel, Russians and life in Moscow, most dream of staying here and not returning to their country. Almost all cafes, shops, beauty salons and other commercial institutions on campus are open and are supported by former students.

Here at very low prices you can taste Caucasian, Central Asian, Chinese, African cuisine, smoke a real oriental hookah, buy Indian spices, sew an individual pair of shoes from an Uzbek to order. Previously, people also came to RUDN for a special product - drugs, which, they say, in the nineties and early 2000s were found in abundance in the hostel.

“Time has changed, now there is no such thing,” says Alexey, a graduate of RUDN University. “Maybe someone brings a little something from Africa and Latin America, but not on an industrial scale. after order, the country has simply changed. Earlier, I heard that this was traded with might and main, and the local police directly participated in this. But now no, I have never seen anything like this during my studies. "

NRU HSE (Higher School of Economics)
The new dormitories of the Higher School of Economics evoke a double reaction. On the one hand, these are real apartments with all amenities, household appliances and a spacious hall. On the other hand, students have to pay for this with a "link" in the suburbs. Although, in a good scenario, they can get to the university in a little over an hour, but few people want to make an extra transfer, depend on the schedule, and even spend extra money on a travel card.

Nevertheless, now all those who entered the HSE are settled either in one of the two buildings in Odintsovo, or even further away - in Dubki. The hostel on Pokrovka is closed, the rest of the Moscow buildings do not accept freshmen.

In Moscow, students live in three buildings - on Aviamotornaya, Shosse Entuziastov and Studencheskaya. I visited a hostel that used to belong to MEI (Power Engineering Institute), which HSE recently acquired. Conditions in a hostel on Aviamotornaya are many times worse than in distant Odintsovo. Instead of full-fledged apartments - cramped rooms with a toilet and kitchen on the floor and one shower room for the entire six-story building.

Number of residents- about five and a half thousand people. Most of them live in the Moscow region.

Terms of provision- the hostel is provided to all nonresident students.

Distance from the university- from half an hour for those who live in a hostel in Moscow, to one and a half hours for those who live in Odintsovo or Dubki.

Conditions- apartment type in the suburbs and corridor - in Moscow buildings.

Dormitory advantages- comfortable hostels in Odintsovo and Dubki.

Cons of a hostel- remoteness of new hostels, not very good conditions in old ones.

Olya, HSE Master's student: “When we entered the first year, the dormitories in Odintsovo were just about to open. But it all dragged on, because they were not accepted for a long time due to some safety standards. Accordingly, we could not accommodate anyone there. They entered, came to Moscow, and we had to live somewhere. Someone put a folding bed in an already filled room, and I and a rather large number of freshmen were placed in classrooms. There are rooms on each floor where students can study. From there they pulled out tables, put folding beds, and we lived there in the first year. But then they left me in the same hostel on Avtozavodskaya. I did not want to move to Odintsovo. Yes, there are good conditions, but it is more convenient for me to live in the city, albeit with a common toilet and shower ".

Katya, a fourth-year student at the Higher School of Economics: "I study at the contract department and have to pay for a hostel. In the third year, the cost was raised to four thousand. And the train ticket has risen in price, it costs a thousand. That is, I had to pay five thousand a month to live in an apartment in the Moscow region with a bunch of other students and with the constant supervision of guards and commandants. I could not stand the constant travel by electric trains and began to rent a room in Moscow. "

Bauman Moscow State Technical University
Most of the Bauman hostels are located in Izmailovo and do not offer the best conditions - mostly corridor-type dormitories, with one shower room on eight floors, dirty toilets at the end of the corridor and rather cramped rooms where both three and four students can be accommodated. Moreover, freshmen still have to fight for this - there are not enough places in the hostel for everyone.

A large new dormitory has recently opened near the university on Baumanskaya, but students have already complained that it doesn't even have kitchens. The administration compensates for their absence with microwaves installed in the rooms.

Hostel location- five buildings within a five-minute walk from the Izmailovo metro station; four buildings at the Baumanskaya metro station.

Terms of provision- the hostel is provided to beneficiaries, Olympiads and those who scored a high score upon admission. The rest have to either somehow not quite legally negotiate with the commandant, or shoot for

A hostel is a place for temporary residence of certain categories of the population of the Russian Federation, it is divided into various types depending on who owns it and who lives in it.

Our article will talk about the hostels of the Russian Federation, about the categories of citizens who can live in hostels, about the procedure for providing rooms for rent, about which bodies are engaged in this, what documents are required for official registration and what to do after approval or refusal to such a request.

A dormitory usually means an apartment or a room for temporary residence of various social groups: students, workers, employees of enterprises, low-income families, military personnel and others.

Conventionally, hostels in the Russian Federation can be divided into the following types:

• Student residences (for those who study or work in colleges, institutes, universities or other educational institutions).
• Dormitories for workers (for those who perform seasonal or permanent work at factories, construction sites, or in other cases).
• Small-family hostels, which are popularly referred to as "small families" (for low-income and or newcomers who temporarily settled in such a house).

It is important to consider that the hostel has always been considered temporary housing, which means that it is not always possible to live in it for a very long time, because after changes in the legislation, enterprises and firms became hostels, which led to mass evictions.

The area of ​​a dorm room is relatively small and should be at least six square meters, which naturally affects the comfort of living.

In case of termination of the employment contract, the end of the period of study in an educational institution or leaving the service of the living quarters in a hostel, it may be terminated.

Categories of citizens who can apply for a room in a dormitory building for social employment

Based on the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, every citizen who is not provided with housing at the moment or who is registered in the queue for housing as needy has the right to receive a room in a hostel for social rent.

Thus, the following categories of citizens have the primary right to receive housing:

• Poor people.
• Disabled people.
• Children from large families.

Submission procedure and required documents

It is possible to get a room or an apartment in a hostel for rent only after a positive decision at the conclusion of a lease agreement between the administration of the hostel or the executive body (for example, the housing committee) and the citizen.

Procedure:

1. A citizen must apply to the Multifunctional Center for the Provision of State and Municipal Services and submit an application in accordance with all the rules and forms, with the availability of the necessary documents and their certified copies.
2. In the MFC, the application is considered on the basis of a citizen's request.
3. Receiving a notification of the result of the request, as well as a copy of the order of the MFC.
4. Registration of a lease agreement for a room in a hostel building.

Such an agreement must necessarily indicate:

• Details of the parties.
• Subject of the contract.
• Rights and obligations of the parties.
• Certification signatures of the parties.

Additional information and certified photocopies of documents are attached to the agreement:

1. Referral to receive a room in the hostel building.
2. A document that proves the identity of the employer.
3. Medical certificate on the passage of fluorography, as well as certificates from a therapist, dermatologist, which indicate the absence of transmissible skin diseases.
4. Medical certificate from the local clinic about the epidemiological environment.
5. A receipt that will confirm the payment.

When renting a room in student dormitory In addition, three 3x4 photographs are provided, as well as an attribution certificate (for men).

In case of refusal in a request for a room in a dormitory for housing, a citizen has the right to go to court for further legal proceedings.

Thus, the process of obtaining premises for housing in a dormitory building is quite laborious; nevertheless, in practice, many categories of citizens in need receive the desired housing if they have all the necessary documents and reasons.

The two most common reasons for rejection are:

• no hostel;
• there is a hostel, but at this stage there are no places in it.

With the first case, everything is very clear - most likely, a dormitory will not be provided to you until the end of your studies, since it is quite rare that universities that do not have dormitories suddenly acquire them.

The second case occurs most often, and from the experience of many students, we can say that you will be provided with a hostel as soon as there are places, but this can happen either after a month or after a few years of study.

Where to live for a student if the hostel is not provided

There are many options for solving this problem. Here are the simplest and most affordable ones.

1. Renting a room... It is quite easy to find several of the same students willing to rent a room near the university. This option is quite budgetary and convenient, since you yourself choose an apartment as close as possible to the university, while the same university dormitories can be located 1-1.5 hours away by public transport to the university campus.
2. Dormitory of another university... In some universities, it is possible to accommodate students from other universities in hostels. To do this, it is enough to call the given university and inquire about such an opportunity. However, you should not expect that you will save on accommodation, since living in a hostel of another university will not be as expensive as renting a room in an apartment.
3. Hostel. An unusual and very youthful version, common in big cities. Quite often, hostels hold promotions for students, allowing them to stay for longer stays. Constant new acquaintances and vivid impressions are provided to you.

There is one more option, but it is not the most convenient both for the student and for those with whom he is going to stay, so it is still not worth putting it on the general list. You can try to stay with relatives.

Both the students themselves and their parents ask themselves eternal questions: where and what to live for the martyrs of science, how to achieve the required benefits in practice, and in what cases the "worst" threatens - expulsion from the university. We are looking for answers in legislation.

Give me a living space!

Every autumn in our country, the demand for rented housing jumps up, including thanks to students who are massively looking for a roof over their heads closer to the alma mater. Many people do not even think about a hostel now: they say, everything has been distributed there long ago and they will say how to drink there are no places. However, in fact, "thanks" to frequent scandals with misuse of dormitory premises and other abuses, the situation has recently begun to improve.

In practice, references to legal norms, combined with a promise to call on the prosecutor's office, are the best help to "knock out" a student a hostel.

Please note: the legislation does not provide for any time limits for applying for the provision of a hostel. Therefore, nothing prevents a student from applying at any time after the start of the school year. The conditions for the provision of a hostel and the order of residence in it are regulated today by Article 16 of the Law "On Higher and Postgraduate Professional Education", as well as the Model Regulations on the Student Dormitory (it was approved by a joint letter of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation and the Federal Agency for Education dated July 27, 2007 No. 1276 / 12-16).

Nonresident students studying full-time at the full-time university have the right to apply for a hostel. Based on the law, if a university has an appropriate housing stock, then EVERY student who needs a living space has the right to get a place in it. So, the statement "there are no seats", in fact, contradicts the law, violates the rights of a student and may be a reason to appeal to law enforcement agencies.

But first, it is worth submitting a statement to the university administration with a reference to the aforementioned article 16 of the law and a request for clarification in writing: on what basis the student was denied the legal right to receive a living space. This form of appeal often helps to resolve the situation.

By the way, there are no stipulations in the law that only those who study at the budgetary department are allowed to dormitories. Therefore, lawyers - specialists in the field of educational services advise paying students to also not hesitate to apply for a living space.

By "knocking out" a hostel, you can seriously save money: unlike the ruinous prices for rented housing, student housing can cost a maximum of 5% of the amount of the scholarship (this includes payments directly for housing, household and utility services) - in accordance with paragraph 3 of article 16 of the law "On higher and postgraduate professional education". At the same time, disabled people of I and II groups, students from among orphans and those left without parental care are completely exempted from payment. The rest should remember a useful rule: if surplus living space is found in the room - more than 6 sq. m per person, then the administration has no right to demand an additional payment for such "space".

Who is the scholarship for?

The first rule pleases everyone: in the period from the beginning of the academic year to the passing of tests and (or) exams of the first current certification, scholarships are paid to all full-time students of the first year (paragraph 3 of Article 16 of the Law). In the future, scholarships will shine only for those who study at "good" and "excellent", without triples.

As students joke, a scholarship is a necessary thing, but not enough. Now its size is 1,100 rubles per month. In practice, many universities establish allowances for excellent students, but the legislation today, alas, does not necessarily oblige to encourage the best students. Additional payments are due to disabled people of groups I and II, as well as students from among orphans and those left without parental care. Such persons are entitled to a social scholarship, which can be received in addition to the standard, academic one (according to clause 31 of the Regulations on scholarships, approved by the Government of the Russian Federation of June 27, 2001, the last edition - of August 23, 2009).

To receive a social stipend, you need to submit to the university administration a certificate issued by the body of social protection of the population at the place of residence in order to receive state social assistance. Such a certificate is submitted once a year. Please note: the payment of the social scholarship is suspended if the student is in arrears at the end of the session, and resumes after the delivery of the "tails".

It should be borne in mind that in addition to the basic scholarships guaranteed by law, there are payments for students, which are financed from various funds, including the university itself, grants, etc. You can get information about such "allowances" in the administration and (or) on the website of the university, as well as in the student trade union committee.

For what can they be deducted?

Today, the law "On Higher and Postgraduate Professional Education" gives only a general wording (clause 9 of Article 16): for violation by a student of the obligations stipulated by the charter of the university and the rules of its internal labor regulations, disciplinary sanctions can be applied up to expulsion. But the details - for how many missed classes and "tails" a martyr of science can be expelled - are determined in accordance with the law "On Education" (Article 13) by each university independently and recorded in the Charter of the educational institution.

In practice, most universities establish similar rules and proceed from the fact that the grounds for expulsion are recognized: three or more failed exams per session, three times received unsatisfactory marks for the same exam, violation of the terms of liquidation of academic debt and (or) missing more than 50% classes for one month.
