Government to make it easier for foreign students to stay
A new bill, which simplifies the stay of foreign students in Russia, and allows them to stay on for three years after graduation, is being introduced for consideration – and is expected to be approved – by the Russian parliament or State Duma after its prior approval by a special governmental commission on 17 May.
The bill was developed by the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs “with the aim of establishing a special legal regime” for foreign citizens and stateless persons undergoing full-time education in Russian universities and research organisations.
At present foreign students receive a temporary residence permit (TRP) in Russia on a general basis within the quota set by the government, which is valid for three years.

COVID-19 has put the world on a steep learning curve – not least for university students.
Students at the Moscow Technical University of Communications and Informatics (MTUCI) are familiar with the challenge, having been forced by the pandemic to study online for the better part of last year.
But MTUCI, already focused on making the most of digital tech, may have been better prepared than most schools and universities for the sudden shift to remote learning. The university was already looking at a hybrid – part in-class, part remote – educational model before COVID-19.
Many courses fit well with the fully digital format. Students did, however, miss face-to-face communication with instructors and hands-on interaction with technical equipment.
