Why Dubai is the Ideal Destination for Russian Pupils and Students

In recent years, an increasing number of Russian families have chosen Dubai as the destination for their children’s education — from short-term language camps to full university degrees. And it is hardly surprising: Dubai has become a global educational hub, combining international standards, safety, multiculturalism, and an exceptionally comfortable lifestyle.

🔐 Safety First

For parents, safety is the decisive factor when choosing a country of study.

According to Numbeo (2025), Dubai’s safety index stands at 84.6, higher than many European and American cities.

Street crime is almost non-existent.

The entire city is monitored by CCTV, with police responding promptly to any incident.

👉 For parents, this means peace of mind knowing that their child is safe both on and off campus.

💸 World-Class Education at a Reasonable Cost

Dubai is unique in offering branches of leading universities from the UK, Australia, and the USA. Students follow the same curricula as in the main campuses, and the degrees awarded are identical.

📌 Tuition fees in Dubai universities:

Undergraduate programmes — from $12,000 per year

Master’s programmes — from $11,000 per year
💡 Scholarships, discounts of up to 50%, and flexible payment plans are available.

A full overview of 15 universities, their entry requirements and study options is available in our Telegram channel.

✈️ Excellent Flight Connections with Russia

Dubai is one of the most accessible destinations from Russia.

Direct flights operate from Moscow, St Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Kazan, Ufa, Novosibirsk, Surgut, Sochi and many other cities.

Both flagship carriers (Emirates, Aeroflot) and low-cost airlines (Flydubai, Ural Airlines) serve the route.

👉 Parents can visit their children without a visa, even just for a weekend.

🕌 Cultural Comfort and Smooth Adaptation

Dubai is home to people of over 200 nationalities.

There are no “outsiders” — every culture is respected.

Teenagers adapt faster than in more closed societies (such as in the UK).

Pupils and students quickly feel comfortable and make friends.

🌍 A Truly International Environment

At most Dubai universities, 70–90% of students are international.

English is the language of both study and everyday communication.

On campus, during internships, and in student residences, English is the main medium.

This accelerates language acquisition and boosts confidence.

🛂 Straightforward Visa Process — for Students and Parents

Unlike in Europe or the US, obtaining a student visa for Dubai takes only a few weeks and does not require extensive financial guarantees.

All students we have assisted received their visas without difficulties.

The visa allows not only study but also residence, access to healthcare, and opening a bank account.
