Abstract :The aim of this study is to reveal conditions of a student’s multilingual personality formation. The research is very important for requirements of centuries-long multinational history, multilingual situation and cultural diversity.  The research is significant at the cross-national level because it focuses on preparation of the young generation for active life in multiethnic and multicultural environment.  This study also refers to a personality education with a complex of phsychophysiological features, communicative abilities and humanistic qualities that allow to communicate on several languages and to realize national and cultural requirements. The importance of the research at the national-regional level is determined by the location of Orenburg region. The region has always been an intersection of cultures, which creates problems of co-residence, but also contributes to the development of cooperation.  The present study may be used for determination of polylingual and multicultural education aims, for revealing pedagogical conditions of a student’s polylingual personality formation in polyethnic region. It may also help to find out the methods and educational technologies that can be used in a student’s polylingual personality formation process.  Modern tendencies of a polyethnic society are analyzed in this study. These tendencies are expressed in a migratory process increase, ethno-demographic transformation contributing to a more intensive intercultural and inter-ethnic cooperation, an ethnic self-determination.  As a result of theoretical justification of the problem the authors distinguish the components of a student’s multilingual personality in a polyethnic region: cognitive, emotive and behavioral. The practical part of the research describes methods and dynamics of every component of a student’s multilingual personality.
