Insurance

Medical insurance for foreign students is not required for the admission procedure. According to the Russian law, a foreigner can get compulsory medical insurance for free after 183 days of continuous stay in Russia. In any case, emergency care is free of charge. You can get voluntary medical insurance in Russia but you have to pay for the medical treatment anyway. We strongly recommend that you obtain a medical insurance policy at home. Just make sure that your medical insurance is valid in Russia. In that case, treatment would be paid by your insurance company.
