Applicants must hold a secondary school diploma (or equivalent) recognised for university admission in their home country. 

For foreign applicants, the application process includes submitting scanned copies of passport, educational certificate and transcripts (with translations/legalisation if required). 

Applicants may need to pass university-entrance/or internal exams (for example, entrance exams in July) and meet any language prerequisites (often Russian language proficiency for Russian-taught programmes). 

If the instruction language is not the applicant’s native language (or if it’s English-medium), proof of required language proficiency may be needed. For instance, the German-Russian Institute of Advanced Technologies (GRIAT) at KNRTU-KAI lists English proficiency at B2 (IELTS 6.0) for certain programmes. 

Application deadlines typically include: by June/July for visa-country students (for example: by 30 June for visa-countries, 15 July for CIS countries) as stated for international admissions.
