“After graduating from the Institute of Management, Economics and Finance, I did not hesitate to choose KFU for further studies in a master’s program under the quota of the Government of the Russian Federation. I prepared the necessary documents and successfully passed the selection process in my country. In May I, was informed about the quota and my documents were submitted to the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of Russia. In June, my application came to KFU for review and was immediately approved. Within a week, I was contacted by KFU staff. The whole process went so quickly that by the time I graduated, I was already sure that I would return to my favorite university in September,” says Rufina Vagizova from Uzbekistan.

“The special scholarship allowed me to study my dream profession at one of the most prestigious universities in Russia – Kazan University. I can confidently recommend KFU to any student interested in continuing their studies and discovering another, so colorful and bright, life in Russia. Kazan has a very interesting and busy life, as it is one of the most important cities in Russia: an educational, economic, political and sports center, which has both the advantages of a metropolis and a calm atmosphere,” concurs Velastegui Mendez Jeoshua Arthur from Ecuador.

The number of international students grows every year, and there were about 11,500 from 101 countries in the 2022/2023 academic season.
