Nwokocha Revs Chukwudi, a fourth-year student from Nigeria leading an active social life at the university

There are three children in my family, and all of us got an education in Russia. I chose Saratov University and, despite the challenges I faced during seven years of study, I never regretted my choice.

During my first year in Russia, I studied the Russian language. Many of my new friends put effort not only into their studies but also into their creative projects. I looked at the guys who sang, danced, and played at amateur theaters, and I knew exactly that I wanted to be one of them. I began taking dance classes in Nigeria and continued it in Russia. On my way, I received great support from the university staff that helped me to adapt.

Now I’m completing my studies at the Institute of History and International Relations and planning to apply for a Master’s degree at our university. At the same time, I have become a rather popular dancer in Saratov. I am invited to mass city events and I am a coach for young dancers and gymnasts who are winners and prize-winners of international contests.

So, SSU students have the opportunity not only to get a prestigious and sought-after education but also to show themselves in the creative, cultural and social life of the university community.

Arrival and adaptation

  • The SSU International Office provides assistance in getting an official invitation to study, checking in at the dormitory, extending the visa and accepting documents for migration registration as well as in choosing an insurance company (students studying in Russia must have health insurance).
  • The university accommodates students in the SSU dormitory for the entire period of study. The university dormitory is block-type. Each block has two rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, a shower with hot water, a wardrobe, beds, tables, and chairs. The two-room apartment can accommodate not more than four people.
  • To facilitate international students’ adaptation to a new environment, the university conducts interactive classes for them on cross-cultural communication and legislative aspects.
  • While studying, international students undertake an internship at the university facility.
  • While studying, international students can find employment without a patent or work permit. The main thing is that their work should not interfere with their studies.

SSU is located in the center of the city of Saratov, a major cultural, economic and educational center of the Volga region. Saratov is a student city combining the best traditions of the educational and scientific center with the fast pace of modern life. It is famous for its museums, theaters as well as great recreational opportunities and picturesque landscapes.

Saratov University has created a comfortable environment for education, fundamental and applied science, research and creation of high-technology products.

For successful integration of international students into the university student environment, the university holds such events as:

  • Cross-cultural communication workshops "We are All Different, We are All Equal"
  • Celebration of national holidays
  • Spring, Beauty and National Costume Competition: Miss Nowruz of the World
