Student Life & Environment

The residential campus is a defined university subdivision with five dormitories. Its current campus page says rooms have internet access and identifies shared amenities including a recreation area, sports ground, library, two gyms, canteen, student shop, hairdresser, and student health center. For 2026/2027, nonlocal applicants requesting accommodation are instructed to indicate that need in their admission application. Bachelor’s settlement is scheduled from August through September 2026, while master’s settlement begins on 26 August and continues through October. Student activities extend beyond residence life. The university lists a Center of Culture and Student Creativity with student clubs and performing groups, including dance, vocal, instrumental, theatre, and circus activities. Its foreign-student information also identifies student media and additional sports facilities. These resources suggest organized routes into campus life, although applicants should confirm which groups and facilities are currently active before relying on them. International students have a dedicated university information service and access to preparatory language education. Academic-mobility activity is also visible through current Erasmus+ news. Students considering residence or exchange opportunities should ask directly about present operating arrangements, accessibility, shelter and safety procedures, and whether activities are delivered in person, remotely, or in a mixed format.

Location & Surroundings

The university’s main address is 24 Vitaliia Hrytsaienka Avenue, Poltava, 36011, Ukraine. Its central academic building is an early-nineteenth-century architectural monument connected to the institution’s historical predecessor. University dormitories are located in the same avenue area, creating a relatively concentrated academic and residential setting. Poltava is a regional center in central-eastern Ukraine, so students can expect an urban setting rather than an isolated campus. The university’s location may appeal particularly to applicants interested in the city’s educational and architectural heritage. Campus services place study, housing, dining, health support, recreation, and sports facilities within the university environment. Location decisions require additional care in 2026 because Ukraine remains affected by war. Applicants, especially those traveling internationally, should independently consult current government travel advice and ask the university about teaching format, air-raid procedures, shelter access, residence operation, transport, and arrival arrangements. Conditions can change faster than a static university profile can reflect.

Costs & Career Outcomes

The university has published a program-by-program 2026/2027 contract-tuition schedule for bachelor’s and master’s entrants, including international citizens. Charges vary materially by educational program, degree level, and study mode, so there is no single reliable university-wide tuition figure. The official table distinguishes full-time, distance, and part-time study where those formats are available. Applicants should obtain written confirmation of the full annual amount for their exact offer, as the table contains multiple payment figures and not every mode is available for every program. State-funded places exist within Ukraine’s admissions system, but eligibility and competition rules differ from contract-funded study. Most international students are admitted at their own or a sponsor’s expense unless a treaty, state scholarship, quota, or mobility agreement provides otherwise. Housing prices are not stated on the current campus page, so students should request the 2026/2027 dormitory charge and separately budget for meals, transport, documents, health coverage, travel, and possible currency changes. Career preparation is most concretely reflected in the university’s applied program mix and technical infrastructure, which includes teaching and research laboratories. The portfolio supports routes into areas such as construction, architecture, computing, cybersecurity, engineering, transport, finance, management, law, and public administration. However, no current official placement rate, employer list, graduate salary, or employment guarantee was located. Prospective students should ask the relevant program about internships, practical placements, professional recognition, and recent graduate outcomes, especially if they intend to work outside Ukraine.
