Entry requirements

For students from visa countries, inform the university at least 7 days before entry about the planned date of arrival in Russia for training by e-mail: invitationletter[at]susu[dot]ru , applicant[at]susu[dot]ru . In the event of force majeure circumstances, the notification period may be shorter and such cases are considered on an individual basis.


Before and after the entry
