Siberian Federal University has existed not so long ago. This young organization is only 8 years old. But now SibFU (including the law institute) is fighting for the title of international. The latest curricula are being introduced here, new buildings are being built, the library is being updated and teachers from around the world are invited. But what does this university look like from the inside? What should an applicant pay close attention to?
History of Creation
SibFU was formed in 2006 by a separate legislative act of the Russian Federation on the platform of the four most popular state universities in Siberia.

The basis for the creation and existence of SibFU is the union of public and privatefinancing. This gives the university not only good financial support, but also a huge number of jobs for the practice and placement of future graduates. In addition, thanks to such partnerships and state support, SibFU began to develop rapidly.
Today, the Siberian Federal University unites about 19 universities, where more than 40,000 students study. One of the most popular, of course, is the Law Institute and the Institute of Trade and Economics in SibFU. It is here that the highest-level specialists are trained, who in the future may be involved in the government of the country.

The time of admission is one of the most important life stages not only for Russian and foreign applicants, but also for most universities and other universities. After all, almost every year there are fewer and fewer graduates. Therefore, a tacit competition has been established between all Russian higher educational institutions.
Today, SibFU is a leading university with a good material base and opportunities. No wonder he was chosen to host the prestigious international Universiade. In addition, SibFU is among the twenty best universities in the country and ranks 14th in the ranking.

From the 20th, you need to have time to apply for the desired faculty, because applications for some speci alties are accepted only in the first 2 weeks. In addition, sometimes the start and end date of the admission campaign across the university may be slightly different.
