On many forums, topics like "How much money did the program cost in total?", "How much is it?", etc., pop up periodically. Let's try to figure it out together! :)
Of course, I will be updating this information)
Sorry for being overly detailed :)
At the end, I will calculate the main and additional expenses.
So:
What I have already spent:
250 RUB – photo for the CMO application and passport
1500 RUB – fee to CMO
$300 - registration fee to International Exchange Center
$35 – SEVIS Fee
500 RUB – bank commission for money transfer
2500 RUB – cost of issuing a new-style passport
$15 – payment for Skype calls to America
$960 – remaining cost of the Program
$20 - medical insurance for an additional month in the USA (for those leaving after September 15th)
$14 - payment for the second installment transfer
5500 RUB (4200 - consular fee + 1300 - Pony Express services)
140 RUB - 3x4 color photo for ISIC
400 RUB - ISIC registration
250 RUB - English-Russian dictionary
499 RUB - document briefcase
899 RUB - bag for belongings
269 RUB - sneakers
6250 RUB – train trip to Yekaterinburg for the visa
1500 RUB - pocket money (for food)
What I still have to spend:
~10000 RUB – plane ticket Krasnoyarsk – Moscow
~ $300 – plane ticket New York – Panama City
$500 – pocket money
Expenses are strictly individual, that's always the case)
And how much did you spend? =)
