For students who excel in the Russian Olympiad of School Students (ROS) and have high scores in the Unified State Exam (EGE) for the 2025 entry, Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) may offer a range of scholarships and benefits. However, specific details for the 2025 intake have not yet been publicly disclosed.
Generally, high-performing students in Russia can expect to reap various advantages, such as full tuition coverage, living stipends, and additional academic incentives. One such opportunity is the Russian Government Scholarship, which is available at institutions like TPU and covers full tuition fees, as well as providing living stipends and accommodation support.
Prize-winners of the ROS can also benefit from priority admission to prestigious universities like TPU. Successful applicants may enter a scholarship program, and those with EGE scores over 240 in three subjects could receive 60,000 rubles per semester. Winners of the Olympiad are guaranteed admission to TPU, with the top performers receiving 125,000 rubles for the first semester.
ROS applicants can access free additional development programs and personal guidance in the subject areas of the All-Russian Olympiad. They can also select a scientific supervisor for their scientific and project work and work with mentors to create a personal learning trajectory.
Applicants can rest assured that TPU covers travel expenses from their home city to Tomsk, and out-of-town students are compensated for their travel expenses after the first semester. Additionally, TPU offers a chat-bot for applicants and their parents to help navigate the application process.
This year, a total of 3,484 budget places are available for TPU applicants, with 1,912 for bachelor's and specialist programs, 1,393 for master's programs, and 179 for doctoral programs.
For the most accurate and up-to-date information, prospective students are advised to contact TPU directly or visit their official website. The university's involvement in national initiatives and government scholarships might provide additional opportunities for deserving students.
Personal-finance incentives are a key advantage for ROS participants, as scholarship programs can offer 60,000 rubles per semester for EGE top scorers with scores over 240 in three subjects. Additionally, learning opportunities are plentiful for ROS applicants, with access to free additional development programs, scientific supervisors, and mentors to create a personal learning trajectory in the subject areas of the All-Russian Olympiad.
