Novosibirsk State University’s international office lists dormitory accommodation from 1,800 roubles a month, plus internet from 390 roubles a month and a 13,000-rouble medical check-up and fingerprint examination at check-in. Its page does not describe room types or the application steps. This note covers Novosibirsk State University only.
Details come from the “additional expenses” page of NSU’s Centre for International Education and Partnership (footer dated 1989–2024), checked on 29 October 2026. It does not say which academic year the prices apply to, so confirm them with the university.
Costs NSU lists
| Item | Amount (roubles) |
|---|---|
| Dormitory accommodation | From 1,800 a month |
| Internet (charged separately) | From 390 a month |
| Medical check-up and fingerprint examination | 13,000 (the page does not say whether this is one-off) |
The page says the medical examination is required when you check in and that fingerprinting is required for stays over 90 days. It refers readers to a separate NSU dormitory page for the application process.
What I could not verify
I could not confirm room types, the application process or the academic year for these prices, and I found no official pages for other Novosibirsk universities. I have not quoted private rents or ranked districts. If you rent privately, view the room in person or on a live video call, get a written contract and never pay before you have one. Before you commit, read our guide to university halls versus private housing, the checklist of what to look for before you sign and our safety guide. For other Siberian and Urals cities, see our guides to Tomsk, Yekaterinburg and Tyumen, or browse all student accommodation in Russia.
