Client clarification

Good afternoon! You can specifically answer the question posed, and not describe the concept of a social scholarship and the procedure for assigning it. I already know this. Is it permissible to divide the standard of the state social scholarship established for students studying in professional educational organizations, on calendar days? How should the state social scholarship be calculated if it is not assigned on the first day of the month:

1) is accrued in the amount approved by the standard, regardless of the date of appointment, or

2) accrued and calculated proportionally calendar days?

      LETTER
      dated December 19, 2016 N LO-2003/05
      ABOUT THE STATE SOCIAL SCHOLARSHIP

The student scholarship in 2017 is issued to all students of higher educational institutions of the Russian Federation. IN this year There was an urgent question about whether payments to students would be increased. Funding for students is calculated annually; they change depending on what needs the population has for the current year. The stipend is also expected to increase in 2017.

As the latest official information shows, this year these payments will increase by 5.9%, in the future - by 4.8%, and in two years - 4.5%, this means that over the course of three years there will be an increase due to indexing, that will not worsen the situation of people.

Based on the percentage numbers presented above, the minimum rate for students in Russian higher educational institutions is calculated in the following amount: in at the moment- 1419 rubles, next year - 1487 rubles, and after two years - 1554 rubles.

Innovations in 2017

As the practice of other countries shows, this is government funding. In addition to basic payments, which do not always fully satisfy all the needs of young people, it is possible to receive additional incentives for active participation in the life of the university.

Last year, the State Duma introduced a bill, with the help of which deputies plan to equalize the minimum amount of funding for students according to the minimum wage, while the minimum wage rate at the beginning of summer is planned to be increased to 7,800 rubles. Once the bill is passed, students will receive an increase in subsistence allowances in relation to stipends.

Varieties

In the Russian Federation, more than one scholarship is currently paid; in total, there are four types of government funding, which differ in rate and payment scheme:

  • State academic payments;
  • Academic increased payments.
  • Social assistance to the poor;
  • Incentives and bonuses for certain types.

State academic scholarship

To receive this type of scholarship, you must receive positive grades (if there is no negative assessments, the student will receive more) and participates in celebrations, productions and activities of the institution.

To date, in 2017, the minimum amount of these payments is 1,340 rubles, for those who receive higher education and 487 rubles if the person receives secondary special education. The maximum you can receive together with all allowances is 6 thousand rubles. If a person is studying in graduate school, he receives 2,600 rubles, doctoral studies - up to 10 thousand rubles.

Increased payments to management educational institution It is issued only excellently to students who participate in the active life of the university. The amount of these payments is determined by the institution depending on many criteria. Currently, payments amount to 5-7 thousand rubles for an ordinary student, and 11-14 thousand for a graduate student.

There is a separate type of payment - . The scholarship is available to students from large families, with disabilities, without the care of a father and mother, who suffered as a result of the fight against the Chernobyl accident, participating in hostilities.

  • students from large families;
  • with a disability;
  • who suffered as a result of the fight against the Chernobyl accident;
  • participating in hostilities.
A person can independently apply to the administration for help if his family does not receive an income above the minimum; this is considered low-income. This documentation is updated every year.

The social scholarship ceases to be accrued if the person does not pass the exam, fails the exams, and if the grades are unsatisfactory, if it is not less than three, social payments do not change. In addition to social benefits, it is possible to receive other scholarships in parallel; this also does not affect the total amount.

Incentives

The Presidential Scholarship is provided only to those students who have chosen a specialty that is considered favorable to the economic condition of the state. Graduate students studying in the country can receive no more than three hundred scholarships. Each year these accruals are made for a period of up to three years.

Students who achieve merit during their studies are eligible for Presidential funding. Receiving these payments goes through the development of plans and development of students, from which the Russian Federation receives its benefits.

The main requirements for accrual of presidential funding are:

  • full-time education;
  • for the whole year, 50% of the grades in the grade book must be above 4;
  • receiving awards and accolades in scientific activity, which helps the development of economics and science;
  • intellectual property that benefits the scientific activities of the state.


A student who receives presidential funding can, with the help of the university, study at some European countries. Those who study at a state accredited educational institution have the opportunity to receive government payments.

For this purpose, the pedagogical council of a university or college nominates among the available candidates (with full-time study on a budgetary basis) who are in the 2nd year (if it is a secondary school) and the 3rd year (if it is a university). From graduate school, a person is admitted to candidacy from the 2nd year.

The main source for the formation of scholarship funds for educational institutions in our country is the federal budget. The size of the scholarship fund, by the way, is determined based on (as you might guess) the total number of students, and only the number of students is taken into account full-time training. Scholarship amount(hereinafter - S.) is determined by the educational institution independently, but it should not be less than the standards directly established by the Government of the country.

At the beginning of the academic year, the Russian government sets the basic (minimum) amount of scholarships for various categories students. From 1st September (start of school) 2018 (for 2018/19 to be precise academic year) the following standards have been established:

  • state academic scholarship
  1. for students studying in so-called secondary vocational programs. (that is, professional) education 487 rubles/mts;
  2. for students studying in other programs, namely higher professional education programs, 1340 rubles/month;
  • state social scholarship
  1. for students studying in secondary and again vocational education programs 730 rubles/month;
  2. for students studying in higher professional education programs 2010 rubles/month.

Academic S. is paid during the semester based on the results of exams passed during the session. The main requirements are that the student must not have a “satisfactory” grade in the grade book, and he must not have academic debt.

Before the first session, S. is paid to all full-time students, that is, to all first-year students in the first semester.

Social scholarship is assigned depending on the financial situation of the student and his family, and on whether the student or graduate student has the right to social assistance. Orphans receive it; children who were left without parental care; These are also disabled people of group I, just like those of group II; disabled people and at the same time combat veterans, Chernobyl survivors, children from low-income families (family income is below the regional subsistence level per family member). Previously, the maximum size of social support was limited, but now the management of universities is not limited to the upper established limit.

The social scholarship is awarded, as you might guess, preferential categories students and graduate students, regardless, oddly enough, of their academic performance, but they should not have academic debt.

For the new academic year, the amount of monthly state stipends for residents, graduate students and trainee assistants (full-time study) has been established:

  • for students in residency programs 6,717 rubles/mts;
  • for students in training programs for so-called scientific and pedagogical personnel 6330 rubles/mts;
  • for students in assistantship-internship training programs 2637 rubles/month.

Rector of Moscow State University V. Sadovnichy believes that a graduate student should not (which is not always true) combine studying directly with work, therefore, his stipend should be equal to the average salary (sometimes inflated in comparison with the real one) in the region . At the same time, he may well be involved in teaching at a university and advising students. The size of his S. should be such as to enable the graduate student to live. According to the rector, it is necessary to conduct a strict audit of those Russian scientific institutions that are allowed to open graduate schools. The number of such institutions may decrease, but they will be able to work better.

Postgraduate students, residents, assistant trainees receive a stipend depending on the success (which is useful to know) of mastering the training programs for the previously mentioned scientific and pedagogical personnel, respectively, in graduate school (adjunct), if they do not have an intermediate one (as in a regular university ) certification of a “satisfactory” grade and in the absence of academic debt.

Additional (increased) scholarships in 2018-2019

Almost all educational institutions in the country offer so-called increased scholarships. A higher payment amount is “rewarded” to those students who have successfully demonstrated themselves in studies, science, and, moreover, in sports and social work. Previously, this S. was called the “Academic Council scholarship”, since its amount is approved by the Academic Council of the educational institution.

The amount of the increased scholarship is not a constant value, and the decision on its appointment is made by the leadership of a particular university with the participation, which is logical, of members of the student council.

A special state scholarship of the President of Russia is provided to undergraduate and graduate students (full-time study) who have demonstrated outstanding abilities (this is the main thing) in educational and, so to speak, scientific activities:

  • for students 2200 rubles/month;
  • for graduate students 4500 rubles/month.

Those undergraduate and graduate students who study in priority areas for modernization (there are also such) of the economy and have scientific achievements, may be awarded an increased stipend:

  • for students 7000 rub/month;
  • for graduate students 14,000 rubles/month.

Special state The s-scholarship of the Russian Government is provided to full-time undergraduate and graduate students in order to stimulate their scientific work. The amount of this S. is:

  • for students 1400 rub/month;
  • for graduate students 3600 rub/month.

Those undergraduate and graduate students who study in priority areas for modernization, again, economics, and have scientific achievements, can also be awarded a stipend in an increased amount:

  • for students 5000 rub/month;
  • for graduate students 10,000 rubles/month.

With the help of special state scholarships, the country's leaders want to support young Russian scientists, as well as leading universities (leading scientific schools) in Russia. This support especially concerns young (under 35 years old) scientists - undergraduate and graduate students - who, as one would expect, carry out promising scientific research, and in addition, development in priority (in the literal sense) areas of modernization of the same Russian economy:

Additional scholarships established by the Foundations

Talented youth are also encouraged:

  1. Charitable Foundation of V. Potanin.

Potanin scholarships and grants are currently received by students and teachers at 75 universities in Russia. Every year, the foundation’s staff compiles a ranking of our country’s universities using its own evaluation criteria and strives to support the strongest of them. Potanin Foundation grants are awarded to the most talented university teachers.

In the 2016/17 academic year (which is currently underway), the winners will be 300 students who will receive 15,000 rubles (not bad for a stipend) per month until the end of their master’s studies.

A competition for teachers teaching master's programs is held with the aim of awarding 50 grants, the maximum amount of which is 500,000 rubles.

  1. A charitable organization called " Oxford Russia Foundation"(or in the original - Oxford Russia Fund).

The Foundation was established in England and Wales, its scholarships serve as an excellent incentive in educational, scientific, as well as in practical activities, first of all, talented and promising, and importantly, Russian students who study in the field of humanities (that is, only in certain specialties), social and economic sciences.

In more detail, the scholarship program in the 2016/17 (that is, current) academic year is being implemented in 20 Russian universities that have concluded a corresponding agreement with the Foundation (Oxford). The organization determines the amount of scholarships for each specific educational institution, and the university management distributes scholarships among successful students. The incentive amount is 4,000 rubles per month. An exception was made for the National Research University (very prestigious) - “ graduate School economy”, here the incentive amount is 6,500 rubles per month.

  1. "L'Oreal Russia - UNESCO."

The L`Oreal Russia group, with the direct support, however, of the Russian Federation Commission (literal name) for UNESCO, as well as the famous Russian Academy Sciences is appointing 10 scholarships (not bad at all) for young Russian (let’s note this) female scientists with the aim of helping them in a successful scientific career.

Scholarships in the amount of 400,000 rubles each (an interesting option) are intended for women, however, under the age of, quite a bit, 35 years, who are candidates of science and working in Russian (as you might guess) scientific institutes and universities, while , only in the following disciplines listed below: physics, chemistry (not so easy to know), medicine and biology.

The purpose of the incentive is, as you probably guessed, to allow, first of all, young female scientists to become very famous, to make their (which is quite expected) noticeable scientific work and, moreover, speed up the implementation, first of all, of their projects.

  1. There are currently enough large number foundations and organizations that establish charitable scholarships for students.

Regional, gubernatorial and rector's scholarships are intended to additionally encourage the best students, to stimulate students to achieve high results in scientific, creative and sports, oddly enough, fields of activity. It should be noted that additional scholarships not only stimulate students, but also increase the level of competitiveness of the educational institution.

University Specific Scholarships

Let's look at additional payments using the example of several universities.

  1. Siberian Federal University (Krasnoyarsk).

Regional scholarships are named, as is customary, outstanding people region and are assigned to students who have become winners in scientific Olympiads, conferences, and competitions. Authors of discoveries and inventions who have scientific articles in central scientific publications in our country and abroad are also encouraged, in particular:

The amount of each scholarship for the 2016/17 (that is, current) academic year is 3,000 rubles and is transferred from the regional budget.

The university is holding a competition for the right to receive a regional nominal stipend among students who are representatives of indigenous small peoples(I think they heard everything) North of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

  1. Pacific state university(Khabarovsk).

The university management encourages gifted students with regional and rector's bonuses, and the amount of bonuses increases from course to course. The regional scholarship (named after Muravyov-Amursky) comes from the budget of the Khabarovsk Territory.

The university is holding a competition among economics students for the right to receive a prestigious scholarship named after A. Kozlov (only 5 universities in the country are participating).

  1. Immanuel Kant Baltic University (Kaliningrad).

Governor's Scholarship Kaliningrad region is 3000 rubles/mts; scholarship for the head of the urban district with the name “City of Kaliningrad” - 1220 rubles/month; stipend of the Kaliningrad Chamber of Commerce and Industry – 3000 rubles/month; Governor's social scholarship – 600 rubles/month.

Osadchy, the Society of Trustees of the Faculty of Architecture and Construction, and the Knauf company.

Students look forward to the New Year's scholarship with excitement, because this payment is optional and not standardized by anyone. Usually, on the eve of the New Year, the native university and the city administration try to increase cash payments students (New Year's gift). Official name there is no increase, but based on the results of the year, the university’s scholarship fund is totaled, and the leadership of the alma mater resolves the issue monetary reward students.

P.S. A separate topic is scholarships for Russian students who study abroad.

All students know about the existence of a social scholarship, but do not understand that they have the right to receive it every month. Payments are received by both the student and the graduate student. Nothing depends on the student’s academic performance, unlike other scholarships. According to the law of the Russian Federation, the first to receive payments are orphans, children left without care, disabled people of 1st and 2nd degree, who fell ill due to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident.

Higher education institutions have the right to increase or decrease the number of candidates for social scholarships. Children from low-income families are added to the number of scholarship recipients.

If the average salary of one family member is less than the subsistence level, a student from such a family is entitled to a scholarship.

Payment amount

In higher educational institutions, the amount of the state social scholarship is 2,130 rubles, in college – 795. In 2016, the state decided on a scholarship in the amount of 2,010 rubles. make it minimal.

Registration

The list of documents is different in each city, so the student will need to contact the social security authorities at their place of residence and find out what papers are needed. You also need to ask what the cost of living is in your region.

If wages family members total less than the subsistence level - feel free to collect documents and contact the institution where you are studying.

When contacting authorities, take with you:

  • passport;
  • certificate of family composition;
  • a certificate of income for each family member for 6 months;
  • a document confirming from the educational institution that you are studying there;
  • a document that states whether you are receiving other scholarships or not.

It will take a long time to collect the papers. Documents are collected once a year, and scholarships are paid monthly.

A certificate of family composition is issued free of charge by the housing and communal services. Each family member receives income certificates at work. Pensioners are in the pension fund, the unemployed are in the Employment Center.

Freshmen apply for the scholarship within the first month, starting from the first day of classes. The scholarship committee reviews each application received without fail.

Promotion in 2018-2019

The State Duma raised the issue of increasing the scholarship fund by 20%. Vyacheslav Nikonov believes that orphans, disabled children, and students who suffered from Chernobyl need an increase.

“A university student receives at least 1,200 rubles a month, and a college or technical school student receives 430 rubles. Why is this big difference“Why are those studying in colleges worse than the guys from the university?” - Vyacheslav said at the meeting.

Grigory Balykhin, a member of the education committee, has been trying to achieve justice on this issue for the 7th year, but to no avail.
