Dear applicants,
Recognising the threat of COVID-19, St. Petersburg HSE Summer School has suspended on-campus teaching scheduled for summer 2020. However, we are delighted to announce that most of the courses will be offered online.
Many thanks to all of those students who have applied for the Summer School 2020 earlier. We understand and respect the decision of those who withdrew their applications. We hope that we will have a chance to welcome them to the beautiful city of St. Petersburg and our campus in the future.
At the same time, we sincerely appreciate the willingness of those students who are going to join the Summer School from the comfort of their own home. We will do our best to let our students get valuable international experience with the help of modern information technologies.
The applications are now being accepted by June 28, 2020.
