"The results of the 2025 admissions campaign at SakhSU exceeded all expectations and set new records. The geography of applicants covered 63 regions of the country, from which more than 8 thousand applications were received. This is one and a half times more than last year. The average competition reached 10 applications per place, which indicates the high competitiveness of our programs and interest in the region. We are recording an unprecedented, almost fivefold, increase in the number of applicants from the mainland who applied to SakhSU. It is noteworthy that every sixth student enrolled came from other regions of Russia, in addition to the Sakhalin Region. Demand for the entire range of training areas has increased significantly: engineering and technical, natural sciences, languages, and psychological and pedagogical. The successful completion of the campaign with such indicators is evidence of the growing authority of SakhSU and the confidence of applicants in our university," said SakhSU Rector Alexander Samardak.
