Additional information
Students from other regions of Russia and international students can live in SPbU dormitories located in three districts of the city: Vasileostrovsky, Petrodvortsovy and Nevsky. The complex is rightly considered the largest in the city, with 13,000 places. The University’s dormitories have lounges, laundry facilities, cafés, shops, gyms and sports grounds, and Wi-Fi is available. To ensure residents’ safety, the dormitories operate a pass-control system. Each resident is issued a personal pass, without which it is impossible to enter the dormitories. All foreign nationals arriving in Saint Petersburg are required to register for migration purposes. If you move into a University dormitory, contact the Migration and Registration Office within three working days of your arrival and provide the following documents: a residential premises lease agreement; your passport and a copy of the passport with all stamps; your migration card (if available) and a copy. Detailed information about moving into the dormitories is available at https://campus.spbu.ru.
