On June 20, the acceptance of documents for admission to secondary vocational education programs, bachelor’s, specialist and master’s degrees at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University began.

Graduates of grades 9 and 11 can enroll in the college at the Polytechnic University. This year, 530 budget and 481 contract places have been allocated for 9 full-time SPO specialties and 90 contract places for 3 correspondence specialties.

When submitting documents, applicants select no more than 3 specialties for admission to budget places and no more than 1 specialty for contract places, which are arranged in order of priority for enrollment. Enrollment in the Institute of Secondary Vocational Education is carried out based on the results of the competition, based on the average grade point average of the certificate of applicants on the basis of basic or secondary general education. In 2025, a new specialty 09.02.09 “Web Development” was opened, which trains specialists in the creation and support of websites and web applications.

For applicants to full-time bachelor’s and specialist’s degree programs in 2025, 3,395 budget places and 3,399 fee-paying places have been prepared. Within the target quota, 535 places have been prepared, 359 places for special quota places and the same number for applicants to separate quota places. Applicants can choose up to five areas of preparation for admission, which must be arranged in order of priority in the application.

One of the innovations in admission to the first level of higher education was the “Petrovskaya Wave”, which gives applicants an additional opportunity to enroll in the university. Applicants whose scores exceed the indicator set by the university are guaranteed admission. The passing score will be regularly updated on the official website, and it can only decrease during the admission campaign, making the conditions for admission more accessible. Even if an applicant does not get a state-funded place, but exceeds the “Petrovskaya Wave” score, the university guarantees him a place at its own expense.

To take advantage of this opportunity, you need to follow three steps.

Select in the application directions, participating in the Petrovskaya Wave. Collect the sum of competition points higher than the announced passing score of the “Petrovskaya Wave”. Submit consent for enrollment before August 5, 12:00 Moscow time and do not withdraw it until the end of August.

In addition, in 2025, to confirm the intention to study at SPbPU, it is necessary to submit consent for enrollment (in electronic form via the State Services portal or in person to the Admissions Office). This replaces the submission of the original educational document, which makes the process more convenient and modern. The innovation also applies to admission to master’s programs.

The Polytechnic University maintains and expands its program to support talented applicants. In 2025, first-year students can apply for grants of two levels. Winners and prize winners of Olympiads, as well as applicants with USE results of 290-300 points upon admission to the Polytechnic University, receive a one-time payment of 120,000 rubles. And students of engineering, natural sciences, and information technology with USE results of 270-289 points – 50,000 rubles. An additional motivation for such students will be a grant for excellent academic performance after the first session in the amount of 50,000 rubles.

Those wishing to continue their career at the Polytechnic University can apply for more than 170 master’s programs, for which 2,376 budget places have been allocated. There are four ways to enroll: win the SPbPU Portfolio Competition, become a winner or medalist of the All-Russian Olympiad “I am a Professional”, become a winner of the All-Russian Engineering Competition, or successfully pass the interdisciplinary exam. This year, 20 new programs have been developed for future masters, including the digital master’s programs “Industrial and Civil Engineering” and “Russian as a Foreign Language and Intercultural Communication”, as well as the program for training teaching staff “Physics and Applied Mathematics in Science and Education”. This year, the Polytechnic University is also accepting applications for 15 partner programs jointly with PJSC Gazprom Neft, Rosatom State Corporation, JSC UEC-Klimov, etc.
