How HSE Can Help With Your Rent

For the third year in a row, HSE will continue to provide financial assistance to students who move out of the student dormitories and rent an apartment. This year, the number of students who will receive assistance will increase to 1000. The monthly payment will be 10000 rubles over the period from 01.09.2018 to 30.06.2019.

Who Can Claim Financial Assistance?

Students who are eligible to apply for financial assistance (from September 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019) are: students in the third and fourth years of their bachelor's degree, students in the second year of a master's degree, and students of doctoral programmes (with the exception of those whose university enrolment ends on 01.11. 2018).

To be eligible, students must be living in the HSE dormitory or the Sevastopol Hotel at the time of selection, be studying full-time and not be on leave (academic or maternity leave / childcare leave). In addition, students should be able to provide TIN – Taxpayer identification number (RUS: ИНН – can be obtained in one of Moscow’s multifunctional service centres) and be in possession of VTB or Sberbank bank cards of the Moscow region (‘MIR’ payment system).
