These Rules are mandatory for all Conservatory students who are subject to migration registration and who claim their visas through the Conservatory’s Office for Foreign Students’ Affairs.

2. In case of a disease or another reasonable excuse when a foreign or stateless citizen is unable to come and draw the necessary documents in person, he/she must contact the officers for foreign students’ affairs by phone and to arrange the possible time period for his/her migration registration.

3. The tear-off part of the Notification on Arrival must be received at the Office for Foreign Students’ Affairs within seven business days upon submission of the documents.

6. The student must inform the Office for Foreign Students’ Affairs in a timely manner about the dates of his/her departure from Moscow and of his/her intended return back to Moscow.

7. Citizens of the CIS countries who are either renting an apartment or live with their friends or relatives may register upon the place of their actual residence. In this case, it is either the landlord or the owner of the apartment being rented who carries out the registration procedure. A copy of the tear-off part of the Notification on Arrival registered upon the place of the student’s temporary residence must be submitted to the Office for Foreign Students’ Affairs.

II. Claim for a Multi-entry Student Visa

In order to draw an official invitation for entering exams and further studying at the Conservatory, an applicant who is either a foreign or a stateless citizen must submit the following documents to the Office for Foreign Students’ Affairs:

1) an original or a copy of his/her degree certificate;
