"Ocean of Knowledge" Olympiad

International students eligible — official list

An olympiad with nine profiles (Russian language, mathematics, social studies, history, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, literature). A remote qualifier and an in-person final in Vladivostok (Russia's far east) or on partner platforms. The two listed profiles (Russian language and social studies) grant admission without exams or 100 points, and the rest grant bonus points (10 for the winner, 5 for the place-holder) — subject to conditions. International students are eligible according to the official list: the olympiad is on the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education's 2026/27 list for the foreign-student quota — the admission benefits themselves vary by programme and admission rules. Competitive and not guaranteed. Check the official site before applying.
