Transfer of international students from high schools of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts to other regions of Ukraine - credits USCIE.
The issue:
Due to the dangerous situation caused by military action at certain territories of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts the Ministry made a decision to transfer international students from high schools at these territories to other regions of Ukraine.
The process started in August 2014 and continued till November 2014. Here the Center successfully landed a comprehensive organizational project on coordinating international students’ enquiries on identifying high schools where they could proceed with their studies and high schools that were able to ensure additional seats for international students. According to the data received as of December 01, 2014 around 6 thousand international students were transferred to other high schools.
During the transfer a number of issues were solved that aimed at ensuring best conditions for international students’ continuous studies. The Center initiated, developed and implemented almost all of the critical documents:

Jamala of Ukraine on Sunday won the
immensely popular Eurovision Song Contest with a somber, controversial
tune that evokes Moscow's deportation of members of her Crimean ethnic
group during World War II - credits.
She sang "1944," a song about the deportation of Crimean Tatars by the Soviet Union on orders of Josef Stalin. Her performance also was considered a strong rebuke to Russian President Vladimir Putin's 2014 military push into Ukraine, according to European media reports. Russia annexed Crimea.
Russian state media this week called the song anti-Russian; Moscow said it violated Eurovision rules.
Contest officials ruled the song didn't breach rules preventing "lyrics, speeches or gestures of a political or similar nature."
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko tweeted his congratulations to Jamala.
Ukraine missed the competition last year because of its financial crisis, according to British media.
Inspiration
Jamala, whose full name is Susana Jamaladynova, told Ukraine Today in February that she wrote the song because she was inspired by a story her great-grandmother told her about the deportation of her family and others in Crimea.
"I would prefer that all these terrible things did not happen to my great-grandmother, and I would even prefer if this song did not exist," the tearful competitor told reporters after the competition.
Stalin accused the Tatars of collaborating with the Germans during World War II, according to Encyclopedia Brittanica.
Jamala said that the composition is about all people who are victims of past tragedies. She prepared for the contest by listening to the soundtrack from the Holocaust movie "Schindler's List." Jamala said she hopes her song will have the same power as the movie's music.
'Don't swallow my soul'
The song's lyrics begin:
When strangers are coming /
They come to your house /
They kill you all /
and say, We're not guilty, not guilty /
Where is your mind? /
Humanity cries /
You think you are gods /
But everyone dies /
Don't swallow my soul
There is no specific mention of Russia or its rulers.
Jamala: So much sadness
Jamala told the UK's Guardian newspaper this week in a phone interview that she had not been home since Moscow's intervention.
"Of course, it's about 2014 as well," she told the newspaper. "These two years have added so much sadness to my life."
"I really want peace and love to everyone," Jamala said as she accepted the winner's trophy. Later, at the news conference, she said: "I was sure that if you sing, if you talk about truth, it can really touch people. And I was right."
Tributes for the singer's gutsy performance came flooding in. Justin Timberlake, who performed as a non-competitor at the event, tweeted "#CantStopTheFeeling #Eurovision. Congrats @jamala #Ukraine!!"
"Can't Stop the Feeling" is Timberlake's latest song, which he debuted at the competition.
European institution
Eurovision is the longest-running international TV song contest. It was held this year in Stockholm, Sweden, after Mans Zelmerlow, a 29-year-old from the Swedish capital, won the 2015 competition.
Since its first broadcast in 1956, Eurivision has been known its unique blend of ballads and big hair, politics, patriotism and Europop.
It's one of the longest-running TV shows in the world -- and with estimated annual audiences of 180 million, according to broadcaster the European Broadcasting Union, arguably one of the best loved.
Past winners included Lordi, a Finnish metal band dressed as Orcs and Conchita Wurst, a glamorous bearded lady from Austria.
Australia's Dami Im -- Australia was competing at the European song competition for the second time -- won the most points (320) from the jury panels of professionals in 42 countries participating in the voting, but didn't get enough points from the viewer call-in votes and finished second.
"This is such a dream, thank you #Eurovision!," she said on social media. "So honored to be performing on this stage tonight."
Russia's Sergey Lazarev finished third.
Next year's contest will be held in Ukraine, thanks to Jamala's victory.
CNN's Matthew Chance in Moscow and Lonzo Cook, Samantha Beech and Bijan Hosseini contributed to this report.

If you are planning to study in Ukraine, we would like to draw your attention to important details (credits USCIE):
1. Admissions criteria:
- International students can study at Ukrainian universities based on assessment of their documents about previous education. The required minimum score for admission is set by each university independently.
- Upon arrival the applicant is scheduled an interview by the university selection committee. The interview is to demonstrate the level of student’s knowledge in the selected major. Language proficiency (Ukrainian, Russian and English) is also checked.
- If a student does not speak any of these languages at a minimum required level, a university can offer to enroll in a preparatory department, upon successful completion of which the student can proceed to main studies.
2. Coming to Ukraine to study:
- All international applicants coming to Ukraine with a purpose of studying shall obtain an “Invitation to study” from the university they are applying to. The invitation shall be in the very same form established by the Ministry of Education.
- Students from visa countries and countries with which Ukraine signed an agreement on visa-free period of stay of up 90 days (tourist, private and business travel) shall seek long-term ("education" type D) visa to Ukraine, which allows to stay in Ukraine longer than 90 days.
- Citizens of countries with which Ukraine signed an agreement on visa-free regime (Georgia, Moldova, Belarus, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Russia) do not require a visa to Ukraine, but shall provide an original or photocopy of "Invitation to study" when crossing Ukrainian border as an acknowledgment of their purpose of visit to Ukraine.
- To obtain type D visa a prospective student shall submit a list of documents to the consulate of Ukraine in respective country, according to the list of documents indicated on the Embassy’s website. Such a list of documents always includes the original "Invitation to study." We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the documents on your previous education shall be officially certified before submission to the consulate (legalized (Ministry of Education + Ministry of Foreign Affairs + Embassy of Ukraine in your country) or certified by Apostille stamp + legalized at the Embassy of Ukraine). These documents shall be officially recognized in Ukraine so that a Ukrainian university would be able to issue your diploma certificate upon graduation.
- All "Invitations to study" issued by universities undergo mandatory registration at the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine before being issued to applicants. Our Center performs such registration on behalf of the Ministry and provides official confirmation of such registration (visa support) to the Consulate of Ukraine in respective country. Consulates do not accept documents from international students without such registration and cannot therefore proceed with issuing student visa. Visa support is a paid service with our Center. You can find more information about the procedure here.
3. Crossing the Ukrainian border:
- When you have your date of arrival to Ukraine fixed, it is critically important to send a timely notification to your University about the date, time and point (airport) of your arrival and flight number. You can do it yourself or via an agent with whom you cooperate. You are advised to inform your university you need someone to meet you in the airport in case your friends, relatives or acquaintances who are already staying in Ukraine cannot meet you. If your friends or acquaintances are meeting you at the airport, you are advised to inform the University of their contact details as the University sends these details to the border control. During passport control the Border Service can verify whether the persons mentioned in the notification to the University are meeting you. This is intended to ensure your safety in a new country, especially in cases when your university is located in a city different from the airport city in Ukraine.
- During border control procedures you might undergo a detailed interview in order for the officers to make sure you are travelling to Ukraine with the purpose of study and that you are financially supported for the period of your studies. You are advised to be ready for such interview – make sure you know well your university, its location, your place of residence during studies, as well as the major of your studies. A notification letter from your university would be of utmost importance here. If you fail this interview you can be denied access to enter Ukraine.
4. Migration requirements to international students:
- International students during their period of study in Ukraine fall under the requirements of immigration law, observance of which is extremely important!
- All foreigners coming to Ukraine with the purpose of study shall obtain temporary residence permit from the Migration Service and be registered at the place of their actual residence during study period. For citizens of visa countries migration procedures do not exceed 15 days until visa expiration date (visa validity period is 45 days), for citizens of non-visa countries – up to 75 days from the date of crossing the Ukrainian border.
- Migration formalities for international students are usually carried out by international departments of universities. They would typically request you to provide all the necessary documents and offer to issue medical insurance for the period of study.
- A temporary residence permit is the document that certifies the identity of a foreigner or a person without citizenship and confirms the legitimiacy of your stay in Ukraine; it shall be presented during migration and other checks.
- The permit is usually issued for the entire period of your study, however if you study at the preparatory department the period of validity of your permit is only one year. A university may decide to offer you residence for a period of less than a full period of study (eg. the period of study for Bachelor degree is 4 years, but a university can issue you a permit for one year only with further extension).
- When enrolling at the next level of study (Bachelor degree studies after preparatory department or Master’s after Bachelor) or transferring to another university you should be well aware of the residence permit expiry date – the documents for its extension shall be submitted to the Migration Service no later than 15 days before it expires.
- If your temporary residence permit expired and it was not renewed on time, you will need to leave Ukraine and get a new visa to enter to continue your studies.
- In case you are expelled from a university, this high school has to notify the Migration Service of your termination of study within a 10-day period, and return your permit and cancel registration. You will have 7 days to leave the territory of Ukraine after this.
- When transferring to another university be aware of the validity of your temporary residence permit.
- It is important to know that the migration legislation of Ukraine does not allow international students to be employed while studying.
