Study Abroad Programs in Russia
Like Russian dolls, the world’s biggest country is made up of many layers. Studying abroad in Russia is the best way to peel back these layers of history, culture, and intrigue and get to the core of the nation. Though many have tried to conquer it, this tenacious land has always pulled through and is a place of many cultures, languages, histories, and traditions. It is an old country that also offers the many perks of an emerging nation. Study abroad in Russia brings to life tales of tsars, Faberge eggs, and interesting traditions.

Best Student Cities
Students exploring locations for study abroad in Russia will have plenty of options to choose from.
The Queen of the Baltic Sea, St. Petersburg was the imperial capital for two centuries, and it remains Russia’s cultural capital today. Opera and ballet reign supreme in the city’s theaters, while museums and galleries are decorated with everything from contemporary artworks to paintings of religious icons.
Moscow has this certain grandeur about it that is easily recognizable. The city is home to dazzling structures, such as the Kremlin and the colorful domes of St Basil’s Cathedral. You won’t be able to stop and gawp at Lenin’s mausoleum and the symbolic Red Square either. Amongst the politics and weighty history of the capital there is a blossoming performing arts scene, a surprisingly diverse nightlife, and an abundance of green spaces.
Vladivostok is a city overlooking Golden Horn Bay, not far from China and North Korea. The mountains and bay lend beauty to otherwise grey town, which is still characterized by grim Soviet buildings. This is the perfect location to study in Russia for international students that are looking to venture beyond Russia’s bigger, more mainstream cities.
