It is an amazing experience! If you decide to visit Moscow while in St. Petersburg, take the Krasnaya Strela (Red Arrow) night train. It is an experience of its own.

“Not the best place tu study at, but you can mae it work”
Elizaveta K
Russia, Graduate
International Relations, 2020
Overall
I think that in my field, International Relations, professors are simply great and dedicated. Students can get different opportunities as in studying abroad and finding jobs, but only the best students actually sieze these chances. The system of the university though is not up to date despite them claiming otherwise. It can be described as an endless red-tape. Moreover, you can be expelled if you express unwanted political views publicly
