Today, about 12,400 students from Egypt study at various higher educational institutions in Russia, and their number is constantly growing. As the rectors of leading Russian universities note, the interest is mutual. In order to further increase the flow of students from Egypt to Russia, Russian universities together with local partners, they create preparatory faculties, where students receive the necessary knowledge of the Russian language so that they can enter Russian higher education institutions with confidence.
