The Nizhny Novgorod IT campus is preparing for the start of the admissions campaign for 2026/2027.

      On May 7, 2026, at 14:30, the Society in the IT campus "Neimark" begins preparations for the admission campaign for the 2026-2027 academic year. This was announced by the governor of the Nizhny Novgorod region, Gleb Nikitin, on his MAX channel.

      In the upcoming academic year, the number of educational programs has increased from five to nine. New programs have been added, including telecommunications system design, AI robotics, bioengineering, and legal regulation of artificial intelligence application.

      All programs are being developed in collaboration with leading universities in the region—NNSU, NGTU, HSE, NNGASU, and RANEPA—with the participation of industrial partners. The educational programs are aimed at solving relevant scientific and business challenges.

      A special emphasis in the campus is placed on attracting talented applicants from across the country. A support program called "Grant 360" is being launched for them. It provides compensation of up to 100% of the cost of living in co-living spaces, a monthly scholarship of up to 60,000 rubles, as well as a one-time payment at the initial stage of education.

      Winners of federal Olympiads and applicants with high scores on the Unified State Exam (USE) in relevant subjects will be eligible for the grant. As a result, in the first year, the best students will be able to receive support of up to one million rubles. The list of Olympiads and competitions that grant the right to participate in the program is also being expanded. In the future, new tools for searching and supporting talented youth are planned to be implemented.

      "I would like to highlight an important part of the entire ecosystem of the IT campus—co-living spaces. They are not just modern and comfortable housing, but an environment for living, studying, and collaborative work, where we consistently develop a strong community of students. I am a bit envious of the current students. But it is very cool that our youth are getting such opportunities! This is one of the priorities of our work, including within the framework of the People's Program of 'United Russia.' I wish all the guys good luck on their exams and successful admissions!" wrote the governor.

      Let us remind you that the creation of a network of modern campuses in the country is being carried out as part of the national project "Youth and Children," initiated by the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin.
