Office Hours
Our office hours are from Monday to Friday, 10:00 to 18:00 (except holidays).

Our Mission
The primary responsibility of the office is to oversee students’ daily needs. It also provides international students with the following types of support:
• Visa support
• Welcoming international students (assistance with checking into the dormitory, paying for studying and housing)
• Providing detailed instructions concerning life in Moscow and at the university (including timetables)
• Organizing excursions, parties, concerts, official ceremonies and other events for international students, in order to better involve them in student life
• Providing administrative and online support

Tutors Program
The Tutors program provides international students with the help of one of our English-speaking undergraduate students. Our tutors help international students in their day-to-day life whilst in Russia – from the day of arrival to their return home.

Insurance
International students may not be aware, but insurance is privately handled by each student themself. Usually these issues are regulated by rules and procedures for insurance when travelling abroad, established within each student's home country.

International Community Online Network
Since 2009, student support is available through our social network for MGIMO international students (official site on Facebook)  or (our group on Facebook) and post us a request.
