A record number of applications, nearly 3 million, have been submitted to Russian colleges and technical schools this year, according to Sergei Kravtsov, the head of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science. This figure is 500,000 more than last year's figures for the same period. The admissions campaign began on June 20 and is notable for several key innovations, including an increase in budget places for future students of secondary professional institutions, with almost 60% oriented towards technical specialties.
