Introduction. The article reflects the authors’ system for calculating the level and quality of digitalization of the educational process in Russian universities. This task is actualized by a number of circumstances of modern realities. The need to create a digital twin / double for each university has become a trend due to the importance of providing applicants, students and graduates with the most accessible educational environment.

Today, the ability of universities to quickly adapt the digital educational space to the needs of distance learning is a significant sign of the viability and quality of the management staff of higher education institutions. Methods and materials. To develop the system, the authors used a mathematical tool – the method of summary indicators for calculating the level of digitalization of universities, which allows to evaluate various characteristics of the value, efficiency and quality of objects with a significant number of different parameters. Analysis. To develop indicators – basic rating indicators – the authors used the results of a preliminary study of the best practices of digitalization of the university environment of leading foreign and Russian universities. The system takes into account the needs for digitalization of the educational environment of three different categories: applicants, students and graduates. Results. The introduction of the rating into the Russian practice will allow to justify a system of recommendations to university administrations to improve the level and quality of their digitalization of the educational process.
