Special Categories of Students
In the Regulations for Interim and Ongoing Assessments of Students at HSE University there was recently introduced a new term: "special (or individual) categories of students"
This status refers to students whose initial educational opportunities and/or special status affect the pace and quality of their studies under degree programmes, i.e.:
students with disabilities and/or health conditions
students and individuals belonging to the category of orphans and children left without parental care, as well as individuals who lost both or only parents during their studies
students who are either participants of the Special Military Operation (SMO) or their immediate relatives
students who are citizens of foreign countries
students admitted to study at HSE University in the 2023/24–2026/27 academic years, inclusive, who have completed secondary general education programmes and have successfully passed the final state certification at educational institutions in the Belgorod Region, Bryansk Region, and Kursk Region, according to the List approved by Directive No. 245 of the Ministry of Education of Russia, dated April 7, 2023, as well as at educational institutions located in the Donetsk People's Republic, Lugansk People's Republic, Zaporozhye Region, and Kherson Region
Educational features for this category of students
The critical SPA value for students belonging to specific categories is five if it is the first time their SPA exceeds the regular threshold.
For subsequent SPA assessments concerning a student from a specific category, the regular SPA is used when deciding on the conditions for continuing education.
