Russian language certificate
General preparation guidance
TORFL (TRKI) is an official certificate showing your level of Russian.
To get it, pass a Russian language test at an authorised testing centre. The test covers reading, writing, listening, speaking, vocabulary and grammar.
A language course can help you prepare. A course completion document is not the same as a TORFL certificate.
Check the level and accepted proof with the university. Some universities accept their own Russian entrance test instead of a certificate.

Prepare copies of your migration card and current registration (proof of where you stay), if these documents were issued to you.
Also prepare your valid visa or residence permit, if you have one.
Before enrolment or changing universities, contact the university’s international office. Tell them why you are in Russia and when your documents expire.
Ask whether your current documents allow you to study and what needs to be updated.
