Today, silence sounds louder than words 🕯

85 years ago, on this day, peaceful life ended, and the Great Patriotic War began. And today, right now, we suggest putting down your phones for a minute, taking your mind off the daily hustle and listen to the story. In this silence, in this moment of silence, to remember those who fought for all that we have. They had to sacrifice their dreams, their love, and often their lives for a future without violence and injustice.

May their feat never be forgotten!

📢 ATTENTION: THIS APPLIES TO EVERY INTERNATIONAL STUDENT!

Friends! This is an important announcement for all international graduates without exception.

Your big day – the graduation ceremony – is coming soon! 🎉 For your family and friends to be able to enter the university, each of you must follow one mandatory rule. It applies to all international citizens, regardless of your country, faculty, or year of study.

Why is this required?
This is a university-wide regulation (a new official order). Without completing these steps, not a single international guest will be allowed onto the campus – security works strictly according to the approved lists.

What EVERY international student must do:

1. Deadline ⏰
Send your email no later than 7 days before the ceremony. This is a strict deadline for everyone – if you miss it, we simply won't have time to register your guests in the system.

2. What to include in the email 📧
Please provide the following information:
— Your full name and contact phone number.
— The full name of each guest you are inviting.
— A clear photo or scan of the passport (the page with the photo) of each accompanying person.

Without this data, we cannot issue a pass – this is a universal requirement for all international students.

3. Who to send it to? ✉️
Find your curator according to your Higher School (your field of study) and send the email to them:

— Institute of Physics and Mechanics (FizMech) → Tatyana Alekseevna Kostareva: kostareva_ta@spbstu.ru

Dear students! We remind you to renew and extend your medical insurance every year!

❗️Medical insurance is a mandatory requirement of all Russian universities.

Medical insurance policy should include:
🔺life insurance
🔺health
🔺insurance
🔺repatriation of remains.

Here is the list of companies which you may choose to buy an insurance.

📄To apply for a policy, you need:
- passport
- translation of your passport
- valid registration

If you do not have insurance, you will bear all the medical costs yourself! This is much more expensive than buying insurance once a year.

Costs:
🔽 Medical insurance: 10000-15000 rubles per year
🔽 Medical examination - 4900 rubles annually

! Important #1: A medical insurance policy does not cover medical examination.
! Important #2: We highly recommend buying insurance in Russia.
