General
International applicants are welcome to apply to USUAA to Bachelor (Bakalavr), Specialist, and Master (Magistr) degree courses. Please visit the page Courses on our web-site. Admission to the university is competitive.
Important: the tuition language at USAAA is Russian only, so all applicants must demonstrate a good command of the Russian language at entrance examination.
International students are charged a tuition fee. However, the Russian government offers quotas to foreign nationals to enable them to study free of charge. You may apply for such a quota place at a Russian university of your choice and have your tuition fee covered by the Russian government. Please note that USAAA requires that quota-funded applicants, if they choose our university, should take entry tests and demonstrate they have appropriate skills in fine art, Russian language, and some other disciplines.
How to apply
International applicants must submit an application in the Russian language together with supporting documentation as follows:
- a copy of the passport or any other ID establishing the identity of the applicant and his/her status in the Russian Federation;

All translations into the Russian language must be in the applicant’s name and surname as spelt in the entry visa.
