On the eve of the start of the new academic year, Ural Federal University summarized the first results of the admission campaign. Elena Avramenko, deputy director for educational activities, told the TASS-Ural press center about the main figures for 2021.

"First-year students enrolled in all budgetary places available at UrFU. At the same time we have received a record number of applications from applicants and are close to 28,000 applicants, which is almost 6,000 more than last year. Applicants could choose up to seven areas and specialties to participate in the competition," said Elena Avramenko.

More than 10,000 first-year students were admitted to all levels and forms of study at Ural Federal University. Of them, 4,427 were admitted to Ekaterinburg on a budgetary basis to study full-time bachelor's and specialist degree programs, and another 2,070 were admitted to master's programs.

The highest competition was in the humanities. The competition for the "Linguistics" direction was 275 people per place on the budget, and by contract form - 13 people per place. The competition for the "Management" direction was 125 people per budgetary place. Another leading major is Economics, where the competition was 112 people per place.

"We are especially proud of the applicants who entered Ural Federal University based on the results of Olympiads. There are 166 of them. The greatest interest among winners and prize-winners of Olympiads was caused by the direction "Fundamental computer science and information technology", which was chosen by 27 talented applicants. Another 31 applicants - Olympiad in Economics and Management," said Elena Avramenko.

Those entering the university on the results of the Olympiads as well as those with high scores according to the results of the Unified State Examination will get increased grants from 10 to 30 thousand rubles monthly. In addition, the university also supports talented first-year contract students - grants from institutes may cover up to 100% of tuition fees.
