College campus is very friendly and diverse.
Tips: There is no cultural shift here as everyone is experienced with our culture and gives good living conditions. Unfortunately, as an Indian, I can’t receive any scholarships because they are only available to Russian students. We enjoyed every class. The college organized many events each year, and we participated in and enjoyed every one. There were clubs, including a students' help club and a society club, in the college, and there was a good environment for everyone. The instructors are friendly to all of us and they really seem to care that we learn what we need to. Not only that, but they also help us get a head start by giving us access to the newest tech and online learning options. Overall, I am satisfied with my experience and I have found that my classmates are friendly and that the courses are hard but rewarding.

Teachers are friendly and cooperative.
Tips: Before joining the college you should know about the weather conditions of Surgut. It’s very cold in winter and in the summer there’s lots of vegetation around the university and throughout the whole city. There are also many free libraries around the city where you can study. The public transportation in Surgut is excellent, and it's cheap, too. Plus, it's very accessible to all sorts of things. There are bus stations right next to the university, the dorms, the city malls, etc. The whole thing is a network, so you can get anywhere you want to go. And the buses are so spacious that it's never a problem to find a seat. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are limited options for vegetarians and more options for non-vegetarians. However, there are places like Subway where you can eat vegetarian food if you have continuous classes and no time to go back to the dorm to eat. I would recommend cooking your own food if you have the time.

Surgut State University has more to offer than one might think.
Tips: You might encounter a language barrier and might need to keep up with your studies more seriously on your own. However, the opportunity to explore the different cultures here, and the people and the accommodation, make this college worthwhile. I take my related classes, and the faculty are quite helpful with the subjects and try to help us figure out life here. In the matter of events, we have a cultural fest and more. There are many opportunities to join clubs you prefer like music or any other that you might want to take. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There's no availability of Indian cuisine in the restaurants, so if you're vegetarian it's difficult to get the complete nutrition you need. I personally prefer to cook myself according to my own taste and preferred diet. Fortunately, our company provides a mess.

Best college with minimal drawbacks.
Tips: There are a few things you should be aware of. The weather here can get very cold, with temperatures ranging from -40°C to -50°C. If you are used to spicy food, bring your own because store-bought food here is not very spicy. The public transportation in Surgut is very convenient and also affordable. There are many ways to get around. One option is by bus, which costs around 35 rubles per ride. Another option is Whoosh, a bike service that costs about 4-5 rubles per minute. Both buses and cabs are comfortable and provide a pleasant ride. Not many vegetarian food options are available here. Almost all the foods have non-veg ingredients. Moreover, there aren't many vegetarian options available at stores like Magnit and Pyatrochka, and the vegetarian pizzas available at the Dodo Pizza outlet are too expensive. For us, vegetarian pizza costs around 500 to 800 rubles.

The weather can be very harsh at times but it is manageable.
Tips: Firstly if anyone is thinking about coming here or to Russia for medical studies, they should keep in mind that the temperature here has in negative for eight months where I live, but Russia is very big, so if you manage to get your college in the south, then it would be best. About the food, if you are a strict vegetarian, then you are going to face some problems, otherwise, there are lots more options. There are lots of colleges in Russia, so you can choose according to your needs and the ranking of your colleges. One piece of advice I would like to give is to try to take your college in the south of Russia, then you wouldn’t have to face the harsh weather, and the food is also easily available.
Likes (Safety): I have never felt any threat to my safety even on nights with no other people on the street. I have never witnessed any thefts and the people here are also good and well-mannered. I have seen police and security everywhere and it is very strict so it is very safe.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I'd like to live in some other English-speaking country like the UK or Australia. In Surgut, almost no one knows the English language, so it's difficult for us to communicate, and the temperature here is also extremely cold. Regarding job opportunities, as an English-speaking student, I believe I would have more opportunities in other countries as I don't know the native language here, which would cause me trouble when trying to communicate with patients.

Good college for students who want to study medicine in budget.
Tips: Students from India must carry spices with them. There are very few vegetarian options available in the market, so students must prepare most of their own vegetarian food. Students who obtain admission through an agency will be provided vegetarian food. I don't think I want to settle in Russia permanently, but I do wish to work here. The main problem is the weather in Russia. Winters are extremely cold, with temperatures reaching as low as -50 degrees.
Likes (Value for money): The fee I pay covers the cost of those facilities. I am especially grateful for the help I received from the agency in India that helped me with the documentation and other requirements for admission. The international department at the college is very helpful for students from foreign countries.
