International students are housed in university dormitories on the Sparrow Hills campus, generally 2 per room with secure entry. Reported room rent runs up to approximately $300/month (roughly ₹26,000/month) — notably higher than regional Russian university hostels, reflecting Moscow's premium cost base; accommodation is billed separately from tuition and should be confirmed with the university before arrival.

Moscow has an extensive Indian restaurant scene and dedicated student messes serving MSU's international cohort, and its hypermarkets stock a wide range of international/Indian grocery staples — the best grocery access of any Russian university city given Moscow's scale, though also the most expensive.

Lomonosov Moscow State University's Faculty of Fundamental Medicine (founded 1992, though WDOMS records medical instruction on this campus beginning 1909) sits on Sparrow Hills — MSU's flagship campus location in central Moscow, home to the university's landmark 1953 main building. Students have access to Russia's largest university library and MSU's affiliated research institutes. MSU is Russia's highest-ranked comprehensive university (QS World University Rankings, rank 87 globally in 2024), giving its medical faculty a broader academic-network advantage than dedicated single-purpose medical universities, though admission is correspondingly more competitive.

The Sparrow Hills campus operates as a secured, access-controlled zone with MSU's internal security department managing entry and student safety around the clock — a notably higher security posture than most regional Russian campuses given the site's landmark status and central-Moscow location. MSU's Faculty of Fundamental Medicine provides Russian-language instruction from the outset for international students (offered without extra charge per university admissions materials), alongside academic mentorship tied into MSU's broader research ecosystem. Because MSU's medical faculty is a comprehensive-university department rather than a dedicated medical school, NMC/WDOMS recognition status should be independently verified for the specific faculty (not assumed from MSU's overall institutional prestige) before enrolling.
