Living as a student in St. Petersburg costs a lot of money. Students need around 40 thousand rubles monthly just for food and travel when staying in dorms. Anyone renting rooms or apartments must pay an extra 20-35 thousand rubles. Smart students keep some cash saved for surprise needs like medical help, new clothes, or fun activities.

Many Russians dream about moving to the Northern capital. Teenagers often pick St. Petersburg universities after finishing school because studying there seems prestigious. But life in this city comes with problems beyond high prices. The weather turns harsh during the winter months. The city feels crowded with traffic jams happening regularly. Public transport becomes packed during busy hours. Tourists fill many areas year-round.

Before making such a big move, young people should think carefully about these challenges. The total cost might reach over 75 thousand rubles each month for those without dormitory spots. Financial planning becomes very important for anyone wanting to study in this famous city. Parents and students need realistic expectations about these expenses.
