For graduates of Russian schools, one of the most difficult periods of their lives is coming to an end. The majority of recent schoolchildren successfully passed the Unified State Exam, received the results and applied to Russian universities for the specialties with which they dream of connecting their lives. While waiting for the announcement of the verdict and preparing for additional tests required for enrollment in budget places in the most popular educational institutions in the country, it’s time to ask what the scholarship will be in the 2017-2018 academic year. After all, what is a scholarship for a student? Often questions of actual survival and the need to find part-time jobs depend on it. Consequently, the size of the scholarship directly affects the quality of education and standard of living.

From this article you will learn:

Before proceeding with a detailed analysis, it is worth clarifying what a scholarship is.

A scholarship is financial assistance established at a certain level, which is provided to students of universities, colleges, technical schools, colleges and a number of other educational institutions, as well as cadets, graduate students and doctoral students.

The scholarship amounts, in most cases, are set by the educational institution itself, and, therefore, can differ significantly in different universities of the Russian Federation. Also, when choosing a place of study, you should know that the state scholarship, which will be discussed in this article, is paid exclusively to students of state educational institutions. Students of private universities, as well as those enrolled in contact form of education, are deprived of financial assistance from the state.

So, the average student of a state higher educational institution in Russia studying on a budget can count on the following types of scholarships:

Academic– provided to full-time students who study at the expense of the budget and do not have academic debt. In other words, those who only have “good” and “excellent” can count on this type of payment. Although this is not the final indicator and the score for receiving a scholarship may vary in different universities, as well as additional criteria.
Advanced academic The scholarship for students is awarded from the 2nd year, which means that those who entered the university in 2017-2018, in order to increase the amount of payments, must achieve certain high results in education or sports during the first year of study, as well as take direct part in cultural life of the educational institution.
Social– paid to students in need of financial support from the state. Its size does not depend on success in education and is calculated on the basis of documents provided confirming the corresponding right of a citizen to state assistance. It can be provided not only in cash, but also, for example, to pay for a hostel. The list of documents for its registration can be clarified in the dean’s office.
Increased social intended for socially vulnerable students during their 1st and 2nd year studies. Like a regular social scholarship, this scholarship does not depend on grades and is awarded under one condition - the absence of academic debt.
Personalized government and presidential scholarships– payments that students of faculties of priority areas who demonstrate high educational achievements can count on.

Amount of scholarships in the 2017-2018 academic year

As mentioned earlier, the amount of financial payments to students at different universities in Russia may differ due to the fact that the law gives educational institutions the opportunity to independently set the amount of scholarships, regulating only the lowest level of payments. All universities enjoy these rights, establishing scholarships for students in accordance with financial capabilities.

According to the changes made to the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”, three stages of increasing scholarships are planned:

1	in 2017	5,9 %	1419 rub.
2	in 2018	4,8 %	1487 rub.
3	in 2019	4,5 %	1554 rub.

It is obvious that for a student to have a normal life, it will not be enough for a student to simply have good academic performance and the absence of debt. It is necessary to strive to obtain the right to increased payments. For comparison, the average amount of an increased academic scholarship in the last academic year was about 7,000 rubles.

Today, the views of all Russian students are turned to the State Duma, where a bill has been introduced justifying the increase in scholarships to the level of the minimum wage, which means raising the minimum payment bar to 7,800 rubles.

Increased scholarship

The right to an increased social scholarship is granted on the basis of a package of documents confirming the student’s special status. Applicants for increased social benefits include:

orphans;
children deprived of parental care;
disabled people of groups 1 and 2;
disabled people and combat veterans;
Chernobyl victims.

Accrual of an increased academic scholarship is a complex process, since the amount of payments directly depends on the student’s rating and his personal achievements. The amount of financial assistance, as well as the criteria for its applicants, is determined by each university independently.

If you are planning to compete for an increased academic scholarship, it is important to know that:

The scholarship is awarded on a competitive basis;
only 10% of students receiving a regular scholarship can qualify for increased payments;
The award decision is reviewed every semester.

An informational video was released for students of the Siberian Federal University on how to receive an increased scholarship. Perhaps it will shed light on some of your questions.

Personalized government and presidential scholarships in 2017-2018

For special achievements in studies and scientific work, students of universities of the Russian Federation are provided with a Presidential scholarship, which in the 2017-2018 academic year will be provided to 700 undergraduates and 300 graduate students in the amount of 2,000 rubles. and 4500 rub. respectively.

The number of students at a particular university will be determined by allocating quotas. The largest number of presidential scholarship recipients this year will be:

The distribution of quotas for graduate students for 2017-2018 gives the right to assert that the President's scholarship will be more accessible to scientists from the following universities:

№	University	Quota
1	Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology	7
2	National Research Nuclear University "MEPhI"	7
3	St. Petersburg National Research University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics	7
4	Ural Federal University named after. Yeltsin	6
5	Peter the Great St. Petersburg National Research University	5

In addition to presidential awards, students can compete for other personal payments:

Moscow government scholarships;
regional scholarships;
scholarships from commercial organizations: Potaninskaya, VTB Bank, Dr. Web, etc.

Why can a scholarship be revoked?

Most budget students expect to receive a scholarship upon admission. But, in practice, not all university students maintain a high level and receive financial assistance throughout the entire period of study. The loss of a scholarship is a serious problem for many, and therefore it is worth finding out in advance what can lead to such negative consequences and trying to avoid such situations.

So, in the overwhelming majority of cases, a student is deprived of a scholarship if:

the student systematically skips classes;
at the end of the academic semester there is academic debt;
grades below the “good” level appear in the record book.

You will also have to say goodbye to the scholarship when switching to part-time study and when applying for academic leave. However, all these reasons are well known and lead not only to the loss of a scholarship, but also to expulsion from the university.

The scholarship is a form of incentive for students.

The purpose of its provision is to support students in their mastery of the educational program.

However, this form of incentive is not available to everyone!

What is it?

This type of scholarship is one of the payment options available to full-time students only. In addition, social scholarships are issued only to those students who study with funds provided from the federal and/or regional and/or local budgets.

The procedure for issuing it regulated, first of all, by Federal Law No. 273-FZ “On Education in the Russian Federation” dated December 29, 2012. (hereinafter referred to as Law No. 273-FZ) paragraph 5 of Art. 36. The procedure for providing these payments in more detail was approved by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation in Order No. 1000 dated August 28, 2013.

In this regulatory document, in particular, it is said that:

the amount of the scholarship is assigned by the educational institution, but taking into account the opinion of the trade union of this institution (if there is one) and the opinion expressed by the student council of the same institution;
in this case, the amount of the scholarship cannot be less than those established by the Government of the Russian Federation. These standards are established taking into account the current inflation level, for each category of students and their level of professional education.

Познакомиться with the amount of social scholarship is possible in Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 899 of October 10, 2013. This Decree was adopted to fulfill the requirements of paragraph 10 of Article 36 of Law No. 273-FZ.

Payment amounts

State regulations in 2019 plan gradation of social scholarships, based on the success rate of completing the training process with reference to the grounds for its accrual:

Social academic scholarship– is due to all first-year students who entered the budget and continue to study successfully. For the 2018-2019 academic years, the amount will be 1,482 rubles. This value is fixed and does not require the provision of additional documents and certificates.
Basic social– is due to all students, starting from the second semester of the 1st year until graduation from a higher educational institution, provided that all session exams are passed no lower than “4”. This year, such a payment is equivalent to 2,227 rubles. Unlike academic, it will need to be regularly confirmed after each semester of credit.
Social– for students whose grades in all subjects are only “4” and “5”. Its value is determined by the educational institution independently, based on internal documentation and the powers of the university within the framework of regional legislative acts in this area. However, it cannot be less than the basic scholarship.
Increased social- This is the privilege of excellent students. As a rule, its size is equal to the minimum subsistence level in the region where the student is studying.

Thus, academic social benefits are guaranteed to the student in any case, even if the grades are not very good. But the possibility of increasing this amount will need to be confirmed namely, worthy academic results.

Those categories of citizens who are brought up in a single-parent family, or one of the parents is a disabled person of group 1, are entitled to an increased scholarship.

At the end of each semester, academic performance is assessed, and if its result allows the scholarship to be increased without supporting certificates, this is done in automatic mode. All documents - about income, benefits - are relevant throughout the year. If a student takes an academic leave, accruals are suspended and will resume when he returns to study.

As for secondary specialized educational institutions, there have been no significant changes in the procedure for calculating scholarship payments and their amount. As before, in 2019 this amount will be 730 rubles monthly. This applies to those who are undergoing training as part of the training of mid-level specialists, qualified workers and office personnel. 2010 rubles for students in higher education institutions.

Nuances of assigning a social scholarship

Law No. 273-FZ provides for a case when a social scholarship can be paid in excess of the established standards.

Regarding receiving a scholarship nonresident students, then Law No. 273-FZ and other regulatory documents adopted in accordance with it do not establish a restriction on receiving a social scholarship based on the registration criterion. Therefore, the specified student receives a social scholarship on a general basis.
