Every year the Russian Government allocates quota (free for students) places for Mongolian young people to study at Russian universities. There were 600 such places this year.
Mongolian citizens can also study at Russian universities on a fee-paying basis. The cost of the educational programs is significantly lower than that of programs at universities in Europe and America, and Asian countries.
