Foundation

The school and the Research Centre of Private Law were founded in 1994 by a special decree of the President of the Russian Federation.[5] According to the Decree Moscow campus of the school, and its Ural branch were established "for the training of specialists with higher education in legislative and teaching knowledge of private law".[6]

Educational process

Admission to the Russian School of Private Law is highly competitive due to the strict requirement of extensive knowledge of private law and limited number of places. In 2015 the school announced a call for 30 state-funded places in Moscow and 19 in Yekaterinburg, and 20 self-funded places.[7] A candidate must submit a 15–20-page essay on the civil law topic, present it before the Admission Committee and satisfy the relevant questions posed by the members of the Committee.[8]
