Hi, I’m Jonny. I study Russian at the University of Oxford, and I’ve just arrived in Daugavpils for the start of my year abroad. I chose to come to Daugavpils for the first few months of my year abroad

Preparing a successful undergraduate study abroad application for major scholarships, Boren or Gilman in particular, requires a serious work and takes a great deal of time. Students need to explain how a Russian study abroad program  at “Learn Russian in the European Union” in Daugavpils, Latvia

Now that I’ve been out of self-isolation for a few weeks now, I’ve had a lot of time to explore Daugavpils and get familiar with the place for the start of my year abroad. Despite being the second biggest city in Latvia, it is very compact and easily walkable.

We continue introducing to our readers the students enrolled in “Learn Russian in the European Union” academic study abroad programs at Daugavpils University. This time, we did an interview with Conor and Philip – US students and Boren Scholars.

In the pandemic time, many universities move their traditional Study Abroad Fairs online and arrange virtual events. Organizers use different online fair platforms and different booth setups, which makes effective presenting of programs and services quite complicated.

Every semester, we welcome a lot of students from different countries who come to Latvia to learn Russian in the framework of the project “Learn Russian in the European Union”. In our today’s article, we’d like to tell you about our transfer services from Riga to Daugavpils

Today by permission of our student Olivia from the USA, we would like to publish some useful tips for planning to study abroad which she posted on her blog. You might find the list useful if you consider studying abroad and would like to know more about the Russian immersion program in Daugavpils

The program offered by the project “Learn Russian in the European Union” includes a large number of excursions and field trips. We also organize for our foreign students visits to the animal shelter “Second Home”.
