On the one hand, paying a scholarship is a serious matter, but it becomes ridiculous. Nowadays, there are also scholarships that few people even suspect exist; these are the ones we will talk about now. Are you wondering if you might be eligible for one of the following scholarships?
Types and amounts of scholarships for students in Russia
- high level of academic performance;
- publication in a scientific journal;
- participation or victory in any competition, festival or conference held at the All-Russian and international level;
- participation in a grant, all-Russian and regional scientific exhibition;
- the presence of a patent indicating the authorship of a scientific discovery.
Graduate students, residents, interns and doctoral students receive a little more, but this is still very far from what is necessary. True, if a student or graduate student does not have any other source of income, then he has the opportunity to receive some additional scholarship. The most successful ones manage to receive about 20 thousand rubles monthly.
Scholarship for students in 2017-2018
- Academic– provided to full-time students who study at the expense of the budget and do not have academic debt. In other words, on this type payments can be calculated by those who only have “good” and “excellent” in their records. 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 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 the documents provided confirming the corresponding right of the 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.

- Personalized government and presidential scholarships– payments that students of faculties of priority areas who demonstrate high educational achievements can count on.
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 who have entered the contact form of education, are deprived financial assistance states.
Are students paid a stipend in the summer and under what conditions?
According to the rule, students in their final year are expelled from the beginning of July, so the scholarship will not be paid in the remaining months. But many higher educational institutions expel graduates in the middle or end of summer, but their accounting department works individually.
Each university is given the opportunity to carry out the procedure for providing benefits according to its own calculations; this does not mean that some higher education institutions do not pay benefits during the summer; nuances in the calculations are made in their regard.
Scholarship amount for students in 2018
The social scholarship is not paid if the student has unsatisfactory grades based on the results of the session. If academic performance improves, payments are restored. At the same time as this type of scholarship, an academic scholarship can also be paid on a general basis.
In 2017, the scholarship for students was increased by 5.9%, which is 1,419 rubles. in universities of the country. The scholarship at the technical school in 2017 is 487 rubles. For 2018, this increase is planned by 4.8%, which will amount to 1,487 rubles. It is obvious that the minimum scholarship in Russia does not cover the minimum demands of student life, so the desire to receive an increased scholarship is obvious. A student who passes the exam without “C” grades has the opportunity to receive a scholarship in the amount of about 6,000 rubles.
Freshman scholarship amount

Scholarship in Ukraine: how much, how and when will students be paid?
The new procedure for paying scholarships came into force on January 1, 2017. As before, the Ukraine Scholarship Fund provides two types of scholarships - social (for socially vulnerable citizens, beneficiaries) and academic (for academic achievements). As part of the student (scholarship) reform, about 7% of students will receive a social scholarship.

An academic scholarship is awarded twice a year based on the results of the examination session. It can only be received by those students who passed the exam session with “good” and “excellent” and who do not have academic debt for the previous semester. Scholarship amount varies educational institutions may vary. In addition, the university has the right to establish an increased scholarship for students: for good studies, for special achievements in research, social, cultural, creative and sports activities, including for compliance with the standards and requirements of the golden insignia of the All-Russian Physical Culture and Sports Complex “Ready for Labor and Defense" (TRP).
Everyone, without exception, who bears the honorary title of student is certainly interested in their scholarship, its size and timing of payments. A large number of students are concerned about whether the scholarship is paid in the summer. And if everything is more or less clear with the amount, which is directly proportional to academic performance, then it is sometimes difficult to figure out the timing of payments. As a rule, practically no questions arise regarding the payment of scholarships in the autumn/winter period, but whether a scholarship is given in the summer is of interest to many students.
Academic scholarship
Do those students who were unable to successfully pass the exam receive a scholarship in the summer? The scholarship is awarded in the summer only if the student has successfully passed the summer session. In order to receive an academic scholarship, a student must pass the exam positive ratings, that is, “good” and “excellent”, and not have any debts.
If the summer session is unsatisfactory, the scholarship will be paid only for the month of June, and for July and August, if there are gaps, it will not be paid. In most universities, 5th year students are expelled on July 1 immediately after defending their diploma. Therefore, the scholarship will not be paid in August. However, in some universities, deductions occur in August, so students have every right to receive payments for June and July.
Each university has its own approved Regulations on the procedure for accrual and payment. Often in practice, the payment situation is as follows:
- If the student successfully passes the session, then the scholarship for July and August is paid to him in advance in June. This is a great help before the upcoming summer holiday.
- Also, very often universities issue scholarships to students in the fall, simultaneously with the September payment.
Social scholarship
To clarify the issue of payment, you must contact the labor department and wages or to your dean's office. In the event that academic debt arises or, simply put, “tails” for the spring session, the social scholarship in the summer is not paid until the student retakes the session. When the debt is closed in the summer, it continues to be paid. Moreover, the payments will include the period for which it was not paid.
Let's assume that the student did not pass the exam in June, therefore, he is not accrued in the summer. The last scholarship he received was in May. In July, the student retook the exam, and for any grade. As a result, within the prescribed period, the student will receive social benefits for July, as well as for May and June.
The scholarships are not large enough to last a month of living. But for a student living and studying in Moscow, an additional thousand rubles will not hurt. This article will discuss the types and amounts of scholarships, social assistance and its receipt.
Each university has a different scholarship amount, but the minimum is 1,200 rubles. In the first semester, everyone receives a student benefit, regardless of grades. In the second, only those who studied “good” and “excellent”, passed the exam and have no debts on tests will receive payments. Excellent students are given an increased scholarship, the increase is established by the Academic Council.
In addition to the regular one, there are social, presidential, etc. Next we will briefly examine each of them.
Social
Issued to students from low-income/large families, orphans, participants in military operations, left without guardians or who have lost one parent. The minimum social allowance is 1800 rubles. This decision was made by the government Russian Federation.
It happens that a student receives 2-3 scholarships. For example, social - for the absence of a father or mother, and increased - for academic success and active participation in the life of the educational institution.
One-time social assistance
Children from low-income families are entitled to one-time social assistance from the government. To receive it, the student writes an application addressed to the rector. This issue is discussed at the meeting, the trade union and group supervisor are invited. If the above persons approve the application, the student will receive assistance in cash equivalent.
Orphans and children from low-income families are entitled to annual assistance from the university for the purchase of stationery, necessary books, etc.
Governmental and presidential
Awarded only to excellent students for their demonstrated interest in study and achievements in science. Funds from the budget are divided into universities according to quotas. Last year, 300 graduate students received 14,000 rubles each, and 2,700 students received 7,000 rubles each. This is the Presidential Scholarship Fund. Government payments are no less prestigious. 500 graduate students received them for 10,000 rubles, 4,500 students received 5,000 rubles each.
Increase in payments in 2019
In 2015, the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev signed a decree on the standards for issuing academic and social scholarships.
The amount of academic payments will increase, and to be more precise:
- students studying in secondary vocational institutions will receive a minimum of 487 rubles monthly;
