Types of scholarships

I am from a wealthy family, I don’t participate in Olympiads and I don’t play for the volleyball team of the faculty. But I won the competition of the Potanin Charitable Foundation and I study well and perfectly.

In this article - how to get additional scholarships and payments even with triples in the test.

Ask for social assistance

These are scholarships and payments related to the insufficient provision of parents and the material condition of the family. They are paid by the university, city, country and even charitable foundations.

State social scholarship

Some students are eligible for a social scholarship, even if they study for triples. Orphans, the disabled, veterans, contractors and victims of radiation disasters can receive social stipends. Another social scholarship can be assigned to those who receive state social assistance, for example, poor students.

To arrange everything, you need to contact your social security department or the MFC. There they will calculate the income, assess the life circumstances of a particular student and, if necessary, within ten days they will issue a certificate for the university - on paper or in electronic form, if issued through the public services website.

If a student lives in a dormitory and receives only an academic scholarship of 1,484 rubles, he may be recognized as a "lonely poor person." Social workers will ask if you receive money from your parents and how much. But there is no need to prove it with any documents.

Documents that may be requested by the social security authorities:

Passport.
Certificate of registration in form No. 9 or certificate of registration at the place of residence in form No. 3.
Certificate from the university indicating the course, form and period of study.
Certificate of ownership of the property.
A document confirming the right to benefits: a certificate of serving a sentence by parents, a death certificate of parents, a certificate of disability, etc.
Documents confirming income.

The social scholarship is appointed for a year from the date of issue of the certificate. If the certificate was issued in May 2017, and the student brought it to the university only in September, then the social scholarship will be paid from September 2017 to May 2018, while the certificate is valid. Then the documents will have to be reissued.

The university will help you understand the rules for assigning social scholarships: they follow the laws and know who and what is supposed to. But they may not specifically talk about the new rules. It is better to go to the dean's office and personally find out what a particular student in a difficult life situation can receive from the state.

Increased social scholarship

Sum: no less than an increase to the living wage.
Payouts: once a month for a year.
Innings: at the beginning of the semester.

Specialists and bachelors of the first and second year can apply for an increased social stipend if they already receive a regular social stipend, and also if they have only one parent - a disabled person of the first group. This scholarship is paid only to good students and excellent students.

The size of the increased scholarship is set by the university, but it must increase the student's income to the subsistence level per capita. This standard is set by the government. The cost of living is taken for the fourth quarter a year before the formation of the scholarship fund. For example, in the fourth quarter of 2016, the subsistence minimum per capita amounted to 9,691 rubles. That is, if a student of St. Petersburg State University, who receives an academic and social scholarship of 1485 and 2228 rubles, wins the competition for an increased social scholarship, it should be at least 5978 rubles.

The exact amount of the increased scholarship is established by the university, taking into account the educational program, the course and the size of the scholarship fund. At St Petersburg University, a competition for such a scholarship is held once a semester. In other universities it may be different, so it is better to check with the dean's office or the educational department.

Material aid

Sum: no more than 12 social scholarships.
Payouts:
Innings: announces the university.

The criteria for receiving material assistance are much broader than for social scholarships. The university pays it from its own budget once a quarter, and the minimum amount is not fixed anywhere. Often the payouts are based on how many students needed help that quarter.

You can ask for financial assistance from the university if your parents are divorced, if you have children, or if you fell ill and bought expensive drugs. The university will need to provide a birth certificate for the child, contracts for treatment and receipts for medicines.

A complete list of situations in which the university helps needy students should be sought in official documents. St. Petersburg State University pays students from other cities and countries tickets from St. Petersburg home and back for the holidays, and St. Petersburg State University of Economics “donates” money for students’ weddings.

Scholarship program "Five plus"

If you study without triples, then a poor student can apply for a scholarship "Five with a plus" from the "Creation" charity foundation. Students under the age of 21 can participate in the competition. The advantage is given to excellent students and winners of olympiads, competitions, sports competitions. Achievements are taken into account for the last two years.

Documents for the program "Five with a plus":

Application.
Certificate of achievement with the seal of the university.
Copy of the passport.
Documents confirming that the student is under guardianship and guardianship, and other documents providing benefits (for members of foster families, disabled people, refugees, etc.).
Certificate of income of all family members in the form of 2-personal income tax or a certificate of recognition of the family as poor.
An extract from the house book on the composition of the family, certified by the original seal.
Letters, diplomas, award lists of the student for the last two years of study.
Photo (any, not on the passport).
Motivation letter.

Play in the football team or drama club

State universities pay higher scholarships to successful students. Achievements are taken into account in five areas: study, science, sports, social activities and creativity.

At St Petersburg University, achievements are evaluated by points. The more areas covered, the higher the chances of getting a scholarship. A student with a TRP badge who wins an environmental poster competition will receive more points than a student who wins five Olympiads in one subject. At the same time, grades are only one of many criteria; it is not necessary to study excellently to participate in the competition.

The increased state academic scholarship (PGAS) is about 10,000 rubles at St. Petersburg State University, from 5,000 to 30,000 rubles at the Higher School of Economics. In most universities, the size of the scholarship changes every semester: it depends on the size of the fund, the number of students and their achievements. There are universities where the size is fixed. For example, active students at St Petersburg University are paid 8,000 rubles each. PGAS is paid once a month during the semester. Documents for PGAS must be submitted at the beginning of the semester.

Community Service Scholarship

In order for the university to take into account your achievements in social activities, you need to participate in the organization of university events or cover them in social networks, student newspapers. The student who helped organize the KVN and covered the event in the KVN group on Vkontakte will receive more competitive points than the student who organized the KVN and What? Where? When?".

For example, you can volunteer to help with a scientific conference - distribute badges to participants - and ask for a confirmation letter from the department. Other options: open a student debate or cross-stitch club, write about the Miss University contest in the student newspaper.

It is worth checking with the commission what documentary evidence is needed. At St Petersburg University, for example, they accepted a screenshot of a list of group administrators and a link to a page on Vkontakte as confirmation.

Scholarship for creativity

Victory in competitions, public exhibitions and performances, organization of events are considered creative achievements. If you participated in an exhibition or performed at an evening of stand-up comedians, ask for certificates from the organizers. If this is not expected, prepare the document yourself and ask the organizer to sign and stamp it.

You can search for creative competitions on the websites “All competitions”, “Enti-inform”, “Grantist” and “Theory and Practice”, on the website and in social networks of your university. Many competitions themselves involve a cash prize. For example, for the best design of a paper bag, you can get 1100 euros, and for an essay on the novel by Ayn Rand - 2000 dollars.

Sports Achievement Scholarship

In order for the scholarship commission to accrue competitive points for sports success, you must either win competitions, or participate in "socially significant sporting events", or pass the TRP standards for a gold badge. How significant the event is will be determined by the university.

Petersburg, TRP testing centers were opened in every district. In many universities, sports departments organize the delivery of standards for students and staff. At St Petersburg University on February 26, 2017, they passed the cross-country skiing test, and on May 15 - shoot and run. To get a golden TRP badge, you need to pass eight of the eleven tests. Four tests are required: a hundred-meter run, a three-kilometer run, a pull-up or snatch of a 16-kilogram kettlebell, and a forward bend from a standing position on the gymnastic bench.

Points of the increased scholarship for sports achievements cannot be received simultaneously with the President's scholarship for athletes. Members of the Russian teams in Olympic, Paralympic and Deaflympic sports, as well as candidates for them and coaches, are paid 32,000 rubles a month, regardless of whether they study at a university or not.

Study well and publish scientific papers

Excellent students and young scientists can apply not only for PGAS. Such students are encouraged by many: the President, and the Ministry of Education, and regional authorities, and banks with charitable funds. Some universities raise scholarships for students immediately after an excellent session. For example, at St. Petersburg State University, excellent students are paid 4,000 rubles, while good students are paid 2,000.

Check the deadlines for applying for all these scholarships at universities, foundations or companies. In universities, applications are most often collected in the spring.

Enhanced Academic Scholarship

There are three options for earning PGAS points for academic excellence:

pass two sessions in a row with excellent marks;
receive a prize for a project or development work;
win a thematic competition, such as the Olympics.

Achievements are taken into account only for the past year.

Scientific achievements are considered to be a prize for research work or a grant for it, publication in a scientific journal or a patent for an invention.

How to publish an article in a scientific journal

Conferences of young scientists are held by almost all universities. Scientific competitions and conferences for students can also be searched on the sites "All competitions", "Enti-inform", "Grantist" and "Theories and Practices", and also on specialized ones - "Scientific Conferences of Russia", "All Sciences", on the website Department of Scientific Research of St. Petersburg State Institute of Technology and in the scientific calendar "Lomonosov".

Usually, for the application, you need to write the abstract of the report that is supposed to be read at the conference, sometimes you need to send the entire article. The abstracts will then be published in the conference proceedings, and this can be provided to the scholarship committee. For the presentation, you can receive a prize and an invitation to print a full article in a scientific journal or extended collection.

In Russia, scientific journals are certified by the Higher Attestation Commission (Higher Attestation Commission), but publication in a journal included in the RSCI (Russian Science Citation Index) or Elibrary.ru Scientific Electronic Library may also be suitable for a scholarship. The conditions for publication in each journal are different. For example, according to the rules of publication in the monthly magazine "Young Scientist" you need to pay 210 rubles for the first page and 168 rubles for the next. The article is reviewed by the editorial board of the journal for 3-5 days, it will be published in the next issue, and a certificate of publication will be sent immediately after payment.

For the competition, prepare the same diplomas, certificates and publications. The selection is not as strict as for state scholarships to scientists, therefore, as an achievement, a speech at a conference, and not just a victory, can be taken into account.

Also prepare a resume and motivation letter template. BP and Ak Bars invite students for interviews. Google asks for a letter of recommendation from a teacher, supervisor, or instructor.

win the business game

Business games are an option for the charismatic and courageous. The jury will look at leadership qualities, teamwork and creativity. There are many such student competitions, but not all of them provide real scholarships. For example, the Troika Dialog Scholarship Program is only called a scholarship program: students are paid for transfers to Skolkovo and accommodation there, and finalists are invited for internships at the program's partner companies.

Potanin Foundation Scholarship Program

Sum: 15,000 rubles.
Payouts: once a month from February until the end of training.
Innings: autumn.

The Potanin Foundation pays a scholarship to full-time masters. They don’t look at grades: I graduated from the specialty with triples, but that didn’t stop me from winning.

The competition has two stages of selection. In absentia, you need to fill out a questionnaire with personal data, the topic of a master's thesis, work experience and volunteering. You will have to prepare three essays: a popular science essay on the topic of your dissertation, a motivation letter and an essay about five memorable and significant events in life.

Documents for the Potanin Foundation scholarship:

A copy of the diploma of higher education (bachelor, specialist).
Recommendation of the supervisor (head of the master's program, head of the department).

The second round is a business game. From morning to evening - tests for teamwork, leadership qualities, creativity. Every year there are new competitions. I entered the competition in 2015. In one competition, it was necessary to write five associations to the word "blue", in another - to distribute the budget of the charitable foundation together with a group of students.

The hardest part was multitasking. It was necessary to lead the company and distribute vacations, hold meetings, and calculate profits during the working day. A sheet with the calculation of profits stuck to my folder. I noticed this when the 40 minutes for the task expired. I had to quickly "delegate" the task to one of the "employees".

The ability to negotiate with people was tested by the role-playing game "Barriers". Two students had to coordinate their project in three instances. The "barriers" were other students. For example, children's excursions in the Peter and Paul Fortress had to be approved by the head of the excursion department, the PR manager and the director of the museum. The authors of the project had to understand why their project "does not let" the barrier and offer a compromise.

I volunteered to "manage" the department of excursions in Petropavlovka. In the game, I was "afraid" that the children would interfere with tours for foreigners. At first, the authors told how the excursions would raise the image of the museum. He didn't worry me. As a result, they promised that the groups would be small - five or six children each - and always with a teacher. I skipped them to the next barrier.

At lunch, the thought that you are constantly being evaluated did not allow me to calmly sit down with a tray. And if this is a test, they will watch me and decide that I don’t get along well with people if I sit at an empty table?

The last test is the traditional game “What? Where? When?". My team didn't get many points, but I still got the scholarship. I have always volunteered to present the results of teamwork, even if it is an ugly poster that I am ashamed of.

Scholarship "Consultant Plus"

Sum: 1000-3000 rubles.
Payouts: once a month during the semester.

Consultant Plus pays a stipend to those who know the system and can use it to solve a legal case. Competitions are held in Moscow universities among students of 1-4 courses of economic and legal specialties.

At the Faculty of Economics of Moscow State University, a competition is held among sophomores after a course of lectures. In the first round, students take a test on the knowledge of the system and look for legal acts in it. The second round is an analysis of the legal situation using the service.

"Consultant Plus" advises you to find out at the Department of Informatics whether the competition is held at your university. To prepare for the competition, study the educational and methodological materials of the service and take part in seminars. The materials published a collection of test tasks - "Training and Testing System".

Maximum Scholarship Amount

I calculated the maximum scholarship that one student can physically receive per month - a master of economics from St. Petersburg State University living in a hostel.

Suppose that he has no income other than a scholarship of 1485 rubles. He lives in a hostel. He studies excellently, publishes a lot in scientific journals and receives grants for his research. Passed the TRP standards for a gold badge, heads the university club “What? Where? When?". Here's what happened.

Calculation of the maximum scholarship

President's Scholarship - 2200 R

Passed the correspondence qualifying round and performed well at the interview

Potanin scholarship - 15 000 R

Passed the correspondence qualifying round and won the business game

In total, he will receive 60,313 rubles per month in scholarships and allowances. The social scholarship will have to be abandoned next year.

Scholarship in 2018

Scholarship- This is a way of state material assistance to full-time students of secondary and higher educational institutions, graduate students and doctoral students.

The amount of the scholarship in 2018 can be increased. But whether this will happen or not is not yet known for sure, a legislative decision on this issue has not been made. A bill to raise the scholarship to the subsistence level was prepared by the Just Russia faction.

According to this bill, it is proposed to amend the law "On Education in Russia", so that students can receive a new increased scholarship at the beginning of next year 2017. In addition, in the explanatory note to this draft law, it is proposed that the scholarship for students be formed on the basis of radically new approaches, while its size should not be lower than the subsistence level, depending on the subject of the Russian Federation in which this or that educational institution is located. institution.

In the 1st quarter of 2015, the living wage in the Russian Federation amounted to 9662 rubles. This means that the size of the 2018 scholarship in Russia may grow to this amount if this law is passed.

In accordance with Part 8 of Article 71 of the Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation", full-time students studying at the preparatory departments of federal state educational organizations of higher education are paid a scholarship at the expense of the budgetary allocations of the federal budget within the framework of the state task.

Prior to the entry into force of the Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation", when studying full-time at the expense of the budgetary allocations of the federal budget, scholarships are provided at the preparatory departments to citizens who have completed three years of military service under a contract in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, other troops, military formations and bodies in military positions and dismissed from military service on the grounds provided for by the Federal Law "On Military Duty and Military Service".

The procedure for paying the corresponding scholarship is established by the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia.

Scholarships will be paid within the limits of budgetary appropriations provided for by the federal executive authorities in charge of the federal state educational organizations of higher education, and other main managers of federal budget funds in the federal budget for the corresponding financial year and for the planning period for education.

Students who have encountered financial difficulties or are endowed with benefits can count on receiving a social scholarship. It does not replace the basic scholarship, but is paid additionally. We will talk further about the procedure for obtaining and the amount of a social scholarship for students in 2019, who can receive it and what needs to be done for this.

Who is entitled to a social scholarship?

The issues of payment of social stipends are regulated by the following regulatory framework:

Federal Law of December 29, 2012 N 273 "On Education in the Russian Federation";
RF GD dated 12/17/2016 N 1390 (as amended on 04/21/2018) "On the formation of a scholarship fund";
RF GD dated July 2, 2012 N 679 “On increasing scholarships ...”;
Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation of December 27, 2016 No. 1663 "On approval of the appointment procedure ...".

According to the provisions of these NLAs, the state social scholarship is paid only to full-time students. Correspondence students are not eligible for this assistance, even if their candidacy falls into the categories listed below.

The following can apply for the scholarship:

Orphans and those who were deprived of parental care. The latter include minors whose parents:
- were deprived of parental rights or restricted in them;
- disappeared without a trace;
- serving a sentence in prison;
- unknown;
- incompetent.
This category also includes students for whom the court has established the absence of parental care. Usually they enjoy benefits until the age of 18, but if they enter full-time education, then the grace period is extended to 23 years.
Disabled people. However, not everyone with a disability will be able to apply for a social scholarship. For example, disabled people of the 3rd group, by law, cannot count on receiving it. Potential recipients are:
- children with disabilities, that is, persons with disabilities who are under 18 years of age;
- disabled since childhood, that is, persons over 18 years of age who received disability in childhood;
- disabled persons of groups 1 and 2 - persons over 18 years of age who have passed the MSEC and received a disability of the corresponding group.
The moment of receiving the disability does not matter. You can apply for a scholarship even the next day after receiving a disability in the middle of the academic year.
Affected from radiation at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, tests at the Semipalatinsk test site and other radiation disasters.
Students who have completed at least 3 years of service in the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, under the executive authorities, as well as those who became disabled due to illness or injury received during the service.
The poor. This category refers to persons whose average per capita income in the family is below the subsistence level. However, if it rises, the recipient of funds will have to inform the dean's office about this, since the basis for paying the scholarship will disappear.

This is a list approved at the federal level. However, for some categories of vulnerable segments of the population that are not included in this list, social stipends may be awarded by the decision of the authorities at the local level. In particular, such persons include disabled people of the 2nd group, members of large families, children brought up in single-parent families (there is only a mother or only a father), students caring for sick relatives or disabled people, married student couples, combat veterans. It is better to check with the dean's office about who is entitled to a social scholarship at your university.

How to get a social scholarship?

The provision of this kind of assistance from the state is declarative in nature. Even if you belong to one of the above candidates, this does not mean that you will automatically receive a social stipend on your card or account. It is necessary to collect documents for receipt, as well as contact the competent authorities. The sequential algorithm of actions is described below.

STEP 1. Visit to social security at the place of registration. Here they will tell you whether you meet the conditions for receiving a payment, and also what documents are needed for a social scholarship specifically in your situation. Usually this is a certificate of family composition, income (for each family member), education and scholarships, disability (or other document confirming the basis for awarding a scholarship).

STEP 2. Issuance of a 2-NDFL certificate at the place of work (study). Each member of the family must take this form from the place of work (pensioners - in the pension fund, unemployed - in the Employment Center). This also applies to cases where the student's parents are registered at different addresses, but are not divorced.

STEP 3. Contacting the dean's office. Here you need to get 2 references:

that the student is studying in this institution;
about the scholarship for the last 3 months.

STEP 4. Obtaining a certificate of family composition. It can be obtained in several ways:

at the MFC;
order on the website of public services;
in the passport office (UFMS);
at BTI;
in a homeowners association (HOA).

It is valid for only 10 days, after which the document will have to be issued again. For its registration, you need a passport, a house book and a title document for housing.

STEP 5. Submission of a package of documents and applications to social security. The collected documents must be submitted to the social security, where a certificate for receiving a social scholarship will be issued.

STEP 6. Submission of an application and a certificate from social security to the dean's office. The application for a social scholarship does not have a strictly established form, but, as a rule, in each university, students are offered a ready-made sample for writing. It looks something like this:

Rector of Moscow State University
prof. A.N. Tupichenko
student 2 course 2 groups
Faculty of Law
budgetary form of education
Levin Ivan Sergeevich
Tel. 7-979-332-09-76

Statement

I, Ivan Sergeevich Levin, am asking for a social stipend due to the fact that I am a group II disabled person. Attached are the required documents for registration.

the date
Signature

Starting from 2017, new rules for the appointment of social scholarships are in force. For several years now, the decision on whether to assign this type of assistance to a student or not has been decided by the leadership of the educational institution at a meeting of a special commission. Until 2017, the solution of this issue was within the competence of the social security authorities.

Also in 2018, another innovation began to operate. Scholarship allowance is issued only to those students who can confirm the fact of receiving state social assistance.

Is there an academic social scholarship?

According to the current legislation, the concepts of "academic" and "social" scholarship are separated, that is, they represent different types of material assistance to students.

The academic scholarship is the usual scholarship, which is paid to each student on the budget in case of successful closing of the session at "4" and "5". The social one is considered additional to the main scholarship, which is not of an incentive, but of a social nature. That is, it is paid to socially unprotected segments of the population, the categories of which are indicated above. However, their list can be expanded by the university at its own discretion, if it has the funds to sponsor additional categories.

The amount of the social scholarship in 2019

The amount of the scholarship is set by each institution individually, however, it cannot be less than the standards established by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 17, 2016 N 1390 (as amended on April 21, 2018) "On the formation of a scholarship fund", namely:

According to the Resolution of the Russian Federation of 02.07.2012 N 679 "On increasing scholarships ..." social scholarships for low-income state students of the 1st and 2nd year, who study "good" and "excellent", has an increased size - 6307 rubles.

Do students receiving state social assistance receive a social stipend?

Yes, according to Part 5 of Art. 36 of the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”, the scholarship is awarded to persons receiving social assistance from the state. That is, these two types of social assistance do not replace each other, but are paid simultaneously.

Social scholarship during academic leave

Even if a student takes an academician, he will continue to receive a social scholarship (as opposed to a regular scholarship!). This is discussed in paragraph 23 of the Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation dated December 27, 2016 No. 1663. According to its provisions, the fact that a student is on academic leave is not a basis for terminating the payment (appointment) of a state social scholarship.

However, if during the academic period the basis on which the scholarship was paid disappears, the student will be deprived of it.

Example. Izmailov K.V. in the middle of the 4th year he took an academic leave for 1 year. 9 months after the vacation, he turned 23 years old. And, meanwhile, accruals were made to him on the grounds that he was an orphan child. This category continues to enjoy benefits while studying until the age of 23. With the achievement of the specified age threshold, Izmailov K.V. stopped receiving payments while on academic leave, in connection with which he received an appropriate explanatory answer from the dean's office to his official request.

Do session debts affect the payment of social stipends?

The state social scholarship is not an encouragement for the successful development of an educational program by a student. It acts as a measure of material support for students who find themselves in an unfavorable financial situation.

The condition for awarding a scholarship is one of the grounds, an exhaustive list of which is specified in Art. 36 of the Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation". There is no such item as “successful passing of the session” or “no debts” in the article. Since the legislative framework and by-laws do not establish the possibility of suspending the payment of state social scholarships if there is a debt on the results of the session, depriving a student of payments will be considered illegal. Also, the university cannot prescribe such a condition in the local act.

Payment procedure

The stipend is paid every month. Every year, a student needs to confirm the existence of grounds for receiving it, that is, before the start of the academic year, they need to re-collect documents and submit an application along with a certificate to the dean's office.

Payments are terminated only in case of loss of the basis for its appointment, as well as the expulsion of the student from the educational institution.

If a student has taken an academician, maternity leave, as well as parental leave, the payment of social scholarships does not stop.

According to Article 36 of the Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation", a state social scholarship is assigned from the date of submission to the dean's office of a document confirming the appointment of state social assistance, for one year from the date of assignment of the specified state social assistance.

This means that the scholarship will be paid on the day the certificate on the appointment of a social scholarship is submitted, and it will be paid within a calendar year from the date of submission to the day on which the certificate is dated.

Example. Kolomoitsev T.G. On February 18, 2017, he brought to the dean's office a document confirming the appointment of state social assistance. The issue date is January 21, 2017. Thus, the scholarship will be paid to him from February 18, 2017 to January 21, 2018.

Question answer

Question:
Can an arrest be imposed on a card on which a social stipend is accrued?

The bailiffs have the right to freeze the accounts of the debtor if there is an enforcement proceeding against him. However, the arrest can be lifted if you prove to the bailiff that the funds received into the account are not income, but are social benefits.

Question:
Will I lose my social scholarship if I get married?

It depends on what basis it was assigned to you. Marriage in itself is not a reason to terminate the payment of a social stipend. But if you received it as a poor person, then the data of each of your family members were taken into account in the calculation of the average per capita income. Accordingly, from the moment of marriage, you will create a new family, which means that the level of income will have to be confirmed again. If it turns out to be higher than the subsistence level, then you will lose the social stipend.

Question:
Is it true that if my parents are unemployed, I will not be able to apply for a social scholarship?

Today, there is no labor service in our state, so parents do not have to work without fail. Another thing is that when applying for a scholarship, you will have to confirm their income in some way. Employed people can take a certificate from the place of work. Non-working - a certificate from the Employment Center. But if the parents are unemployed and not registered with the Employment Center, then it is not possible to confirm their income. And, therefore, the student will not be able to provide the necessary package of documents, on the basis of which he may be denied the appointment of a social scholarship.

Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation No. 1663 "On approval of the procedure for assigning state academic scholarships and (or) state social scholarships to students studying full-time at the expense of the federal budget, state scholarships to graduate students, residents, assistant trainees studying full-time the form of education at the expense of the budget allocations of the federal budget, the payment of scholarships to students of the preparatory departments of federal state educational organizations of higher education, studying at the expense of the budget allocations of the federal budget "of December 27, 2016

All students know about the existence of a social scholarship, but they 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 performance, unlike other scholarships. According to the law of the Russian Federation, orphans, children left without care, disabled people of the 1st and 2nd degrees who fell ill due to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident are the first to receive payments.

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 holders.

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

Payout amount

In higher educational institutions, the size of the state social scholarship is 2130 rubles, in college - 795. The state decided in 2016 a scholarship in the amount of 2010 rubles. make it minimal.

Registration

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

If the salary of family members in total is less than the subsistence level, feel free to collect documents and contact the institution where you study.

When contacting the authorities, bring with you:

passport;
information about the composition of the family;
income statement of each family member for 6 months;
a confirmation document from the educational institution that you are studying there;
a document stating 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 at the municipal housing service. Each member of the family receives income statements at work. Pensioners - in the pension fund, the unemployed - in the Employment Center.

Freshmen apply for scholarships within the first month, counting from the first day of class. The scholarship committee considers each application received without fail.

Increase in 2018-2019

The State Duma raised the issue of increasing the scholarship fund by 20%. Vyacheslav Nikonov believes that orphans, the disabled, Chernobyl students need a bonus.

“A university student receives at least 1,200 rubles a month, and a college or technical school student receives 430 rubles. Why is there such a big difference that college students are worse than college kids?” Vyacheslav said at the meeting.

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