The qualification stage of the international Olympiad “Open Doors” begins

The qualification round of the international Olympiad “Open Doors: Russian Scholarship project” begins very soon: the registration opens on September 15. The victory in the Olympiad enables talented students from other countries to enroll in master's and postgraduate programs in Russian universities without entrance examinations and with tuition fees covered by the Russian Federation.

The competition is open to foreign citizens and stateless persons, including compatriots living abroad, who have a bachelor's degree or are completing a bachelor’s degree program in the year of the Olympiad for the master's track, and have a master's or a specialist's degree for the doctoral track (analogous to Ph.D.).

The Olympiad winners will be able to choose any of 500 Russian universities. The language of instruction is English or Russian depending on the chosen program and the university. The Olympiad will be held entirely online.
