🇷🇺 Duolingo English Test for Russia — from Switzerland

From Switzerland — the essentials

Costs in: Swiss Franc (CHF)
Credentials: Swiss ENIC (swissuniversities) — evaluation of foreign diplomas
Funding to search: Swiss-European Mobility Programme (SEMP), Fulbright Switzerland, ESKAS federal scholarships, university exchange
Where students go: Germany, United Kingdom, United States, France, Netherlands
Apply from: Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Lausanne

Switzerland is German-, French- and Italian-speaking; English-taught programmes need Duolingo English Test/IELTS; students study abroad via SEMP and bilateral programmes. At about $70 the DET is taken online from Switzerland — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS.

We have not yet verified Russia-specific DET figures, so this corridor is honest general guidance and is not yet indexed. Confirm the requirement on the official page.
