The priority stage of enrollment for bachelor's and specialist's programs has passed at the Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University. 852 first-year students can already proudly call themselves polytechnics and find themselves in the lists of those enrolled using a unique code or personal account ID. The lists are available on the website "Admission 2025".

The first main heroes of the 2025 admission campaign were the winners and prize winners of the All-Russian School Olympiad and Olympiads from the list of the Russian Council of School Olympiads, as well as applicants admitted under quotas. A record number of people have already been enrolled in the Polytechnic University and its branch based on the results of the Olympiads – 185 applicants. In addition, 292 people were enrolled under targeted admission and 375 under a special and separate quota.

I decided to apply to Polytechnic University back in the 9th grade — after participating in the Engineering League and joint programs with the Academy of Talents of St. Petersburg. This helped me understand what I wanted to do. I had no doubts when choosing a university, and the support of talented applicants this year only strengthened my choice! Taking a prize place in the Olympiad, of course, was not easy, but I prepared hard: I attended clubs, solved Olympiad tasks from previous years, participated in various hackathons and real-time programming competitions, and also completed a two-year course from Yandex Lyceum. And it was worth it — it gives confidence when applying. Even guys with high scores were not competitors for me. I am looking forward to an intense study, a sought-after profession, and a cool student community. Polytechnic University is a place where the best gather! — shared his impressions a first-year student of the Computer Security program, winner of the Gazprom industry Olympiad for schoolchildren in computer science Savva Lastochkin.

Among those admitted without exams is a graduate of the Natural Science Lyceum of SPbPU Andrey Kapustyanik. He became a prize winner of the final stage of the All-Russian School Olympiad in Technology and was among the few applicants admitted to the Polytechnic University without entrance examinations.

The admissions campaign continues – on August 7, the lists of those admitted through the main competition for the main budget places will be published.

We congratulate the newly minted polytechnicians and wish them a vibrant student life, scientific discoveries and professional victories!
