The college is fine, and it requires students to work hard.
Tips: Students should know about the college/university, faculty, study place, hostel, campus, living conditions, weather, cost of living, temperature, room conditions and materials to carry with themselves. They should be aware about what all to carry while coming here for the first time, like warm clothes and shoes, etc.
Likes (Safety): Safety is so good. I have not faced any problem till now. Not just me, no one has faced any problem until now. I am so happy about it. Safety is totally assured. That is my guarantee. Russians are far better than Indians. They don't interfere. They don't create problems.
Dislikes (Indian Food): No proper food options. I don't see any Indian food here. I can't live without Indian food. I can find only pizzas, burgers and KFC. How many times could we eat the same thing? I am fed up of eating outside and that too the same thing again and again. Recently, I have started to prepare my own food.

Best in safety and good quality of academics.
Tips: The culture here is quite modern, but we easily adapted. Many consultants are available in India as well; RMEA is managing here, and another dominant one is Rus Education. There is no discrimination, and it's good for studying. Food is not good in the whole of Russia; self-cooking is the best option. I am very satisfied with the studies and the city. Our city is not big, but we can get all things easily here. Many students fail, but at the end, the FMGE results are good.
Likes (Safety): The whole of Russia is very safe for students, and the people are also good. There are good laws, and that's why all things are under control. We are happy to live here, and overall, things are good. Our city, Orenburg, is very strict in studies.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I don't know about all placements, as many of us come through agency consultancies. Jobs are also available here, but the schedule is tight, so we don't have time to do them.

Student life is good but you have to study hard.
Tips: Students should know about the campus, university, hostel, food facility, rooms, and the distance between the hostel and university. They also need to know about the climatic conditions and, most importantly, the banks where they can exchange currency from rupees to rubles. I stayed in Orenburg for 5.8 years, and the food options were very limited. There were only a few places to eat, and the food was not good. I missed the variety of food options that we have in India. I worked part-time at KFC and earned more than 50,000 rubles. It was a nice experience, and the money helped me a lot. I used the money to book a flight back to India. There are other places to work as well, such as Burger King, Dodo Pizza and others.

The university provides a few on-campus seminars for students which are really helpful.
Tips: I checked my university ranking, and it was in second place according to Forbes. Students need to know about the college ranking. They should also know about the climate, food, and accommodation facilities that the college provides. There aren't many options for post-study jobs. The language barrier makes it difficult to work as a doctor, but it is possible to work in other sectors. But part-time jobs are easy to find. There are a lot of opportunities in Orenburg, where I live. We can work at Burger King, KFC, Dodo Pizza, or as a delivery driver at other restaurants. Plus, the hourly pay is very good. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences here in Orenburg.

The country is safe and the university hosts many on campus events to interact with our seniors.
Tips: When you come to study at a university in a new country, you need to be more adaptive. You cannot expect things to be the same as in your home country. You need to accept things as they are and not complain about what you don't like. You also need to learn the local language, as it will be a big hurdle if you don't. There are many distractions in a new country, but if you stay focused on your studies, you will be fine.
Likes (Safety): I feel safe here, even when I am out late at night. The people here are not very friendly, but they are not interested in you and won't bother you.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food options at this university are almost none. You are either eating tasteless burgers or pizzas, or you are cooking for yourself. Cooking takes a lot of time, especially when you are studying. Sometimes we really crave for Indian street food.

Orenburg State Medical University has very tough academics.
Tips: If you want to study at Orenburg State Medical University, you need to be prepared to study hard. If you are not interested in studying and just want to get a degree and enjoy life, you should choose another university. Permanent immigration is a long process. You have to finish your UG and then PG. After PG, you have to work for some years before you can get permanent immigration. Also, the pay is comparable to other countries, and you must be fluent in Russian to work there. The county is very safe. Every student needs an entry card or tap card, to enter the hostel and the university and entry is not permitted without a card. You don't have to worry about anything at any time. It is completely safe for boys or girls.
