Winners of the FinU International Olympiad for Youth

Thanks to the International Olympiad, my dream came true and I am studying at a top university in Russia, it greatly increased my self-esteem, gave me the opportunity to test my strength and knowledge on a platform independent of the school, to understand what I can and where I need to work more. It taught me to value time and the ability to prioritize what to sacrifice for the sake of extra time to sit over textbooks. It really encourages me to develop further, read more, communicate with interesting people, and move forward. I attended international exhibitions of education in Tashkent, listened to representatives of universities, analyzed, read information on the Internet. And almost immediately I realized that the FinU is mine, what I was looking for and found!

I entered the FinU according to the FinU International Olympiad for Youth. I really like my friendly group and the pleasant atmosphere at the university, interesting and strong teachers, the presence of many events, a delicious canteen and the proximity of the sports complex to the university.

I learned about the Olympiad from a friend from my country, who briefly told me about it. Then, on the website of the FinU, I studied detailed information about the stages and conditions of selection, used demo versions.  I decided to enroll in this Olympiad, because I wanted to enter the FinU. And also because I had experience of participating in such Olympiads. This Olympiad gave me the opportunity to study in the desired concentration on a state-funded basis, develop in various projects, and also move to Russia. I have repeatedly recommended friends and acquaintances to enroll for the FinU International Olympiad for Youth.

The Olympiad gave me the opportunity to show my acquired knowledge at the bachelor's degree and apply it for admission to the master's program, thanks to this I managed to enter and study at my native university, where I had previously studied. I was following the website of the FinU looking for information about admission to the master's program, when I saw the news about this Olympiad, I decided to try my hand at it. I strongly advise every foreign citizen to try and show their strength and knowledge in this Olympiad, because it will give experience, the opportunity to enter one of the best universities!

Since my brother studied at the FinU, he actively promoted his university. At school, I tried to enter through the Olympiads, but I failed to achieve the desired result. I came to try my hand at the master's degree program, I had to be careful, because admission to it through the Olympics took place in April. This method is more interesting than taking exams and writing tests later in the summer, as it seems less competitive/easier. The main thing that I like about the FinU is that the student's work is more appreciated here than at other universities.
