Probably, there is no such applicant who refuses to enter the capital’s university on the budget. It is not surprising, because the choice here is extremely rich, and the quality of education has always been at the highest level. But every year the number of seats paid by the state decreases. And increasingly, students are offered paid education. However, budget places, although in small numbers, still remained even in the most prestigious universities.
Is there a chance?
Given that Moscow has a huge number of universities, most of them state-owned, it’s quite difficult to list all the institutions that offer training on a budgetary basis. However, the dream of every future applicant invariably remains to enter the leading and prestigious universities of the country, a considerable part of which is located in the capital.
Having good results in the exam, you can try to submit documents to elite universities in the following specialties:
- Humanities;
- economic;
- legal;
- technical;
- pedagogical.
However, we do not recommend comforting ourselves with hopes that everyone can get into these educational institutions. Most of them have an established threshold for the exam, without reaching which it makes no sense to submit documents there. So, the list of prestigious universities in Moscow with budget places in 2019 is as follows:
- RUDN - from 86;
- MISiS and Higher School of Economics - from 93;
- Pedagogical University and MSTU. Bauman - from 99;
- MGIMO - from 269;
- Moscow State University - from 282.
If your USE scores do not reach the required level, do not despair and try to apply to other universities. However, as you see, only MGIMO and Moscow State University have a high passing score, which is a consequence of competition not only among metropolitan universities, but also among the professions in demand chosen by school graduates.
Briefly about the situation for 2019
The next statement of the Ministry of Education could not contribute to a real increase in the number of budget places. On the contrary, some educational institutions had to reduce the number of students who would study free of charge. The reason is simple: funding cuts. Those who wished to become economists and lawyers felt this especially sharply.
At the same time, the training program at the expense of the state for low-demand specialties has significantly expanded due to a lack of qualified personnel. First of all, these include geodesy and geology.
The most prestigious Moscow universities with budget places
In first place - Moscow State University. Lomonosov. Perhaps some do not know, but the university holds its own Olympiad for schoolchildren. Laureates can enter an educational institution out of competition. Of course, subject to the successful passing of the exam and high scores. The most popular and, as a result, inaccessible faculties are economic and legal. For the 2019-2020 academic year, Moscow State University offers 6,437 budget places. Go for it!

Universities with budget places and a low passing score
