Admission to budget places

At a technical university, in some areas you can study not only on a commercial basis, but also for free. In this regard, many applicants are interested in a passing score on a budget. Unfortunately, admissions officers never give the exact figure, because it depends on the number of allocated places for free education, the number of submitted applications and packages of documents, and the results of entrance examinations of applicants.

One thing can be said with confidence - the likelihood of admission to budget places is high for those people who have scored a decent number of points. It is worth noting that Samara Technical State University allows applicants to make the most of their chances for free education. Applicants can apply to 3 selected areas at once.

Commercial training

Samara State Technical University (Samara) offers its applicants a huge number of areas of training, where training is carried out on a paid basis (commercial form). The cost is approved annually by order of the educational institution. It is recommended to clarify it (for the selected areas of training) with the admissions committee.

The cost differs for different specialties. For example, in the field of “Computer Engineering and Informatics” (Faculty of Information Technology and Automation) it was 42,100 rubles per semester (for first-year students admitted in 2016). The cost was significantly lower in the “Service” direction (Faculty of Humanitarian Education) - 37,100 rubles.

Transfer to budget

Students studying on a paid basis may have the opportunity to switch from a commercial form to a budget one. This happens when free free places become available. Persons applying for such a transition are subject to certain requirements. Firstly, at the time of submitting the application, students should not have debts on tuition fees or unsatisfactory results of intermediate certification in subjects. Secondly, any of the following conditions must be present:

• loss of one or both parents (legal representatives) during university studies;
• exam grades (for the previous 2 semesters) are only “4”, “5” (that is, without “3”);
• students belong to orphans and children without parental care;
• students are those citizens (under 20 years of age) who have one disabled parent of group I; At the same time, the income per person in a family is less than the subsistence level.

To switch to the free place that appears, you must submit an appropriate application. The state technical university allocates a certain period for this process. Then a commission meeting is scheduled for a specific day. It reviews all applications and makes appropriate decisions (on the transition of a particular student from paid to free education or on refusal).

Latest reviews from SamSTU

I want to leave my impression about this university. It’s better not to come here, it doesn’t give you any knowledge. Teachers shirk from work and teach at a poor level. If you want real knowledge, go to other universities. The ranking is based on Russia. But in fact, everything is very bad here. I really regret that I came here. Don’t go to the Faculty of Economics, there is no knowledge and prospects here

I got in without any problems, since I had enough points on the Unified State Exam. The group initially consisted of 30 people. Then, of course, people started dropping out. Some left in the first semester under the pretext of “choosing the wrong specialty,” others...
