Due to health problems in childhood, Olga could not attend secondary school normally, so her mother Liya had to give up actress career to maintain daughter's education at home for years. When finished, Olga received school graduation as external degree. At the age of 16, Olga decided to follow her mother's profession and went to Boris Shchukin Theatre Institute in Moscow.
The studies were hard for Olga: her leading teacher was set up against her considering her unsuitable for the profession. Every year the teacher, Marina Panteleeva, tried to drop her out of the institute, but the senior administration made her remain. Over the last year of studies, Panteleeva refused to involve Olga in graduation performances. Thus, as the only exception in the history of the Shchukin Institute, rehearsals with her were individually held by pro-rector Pyotr Popov and a teacher Vladimir Poglazov. Finally, in 1997 Olga successfully graduated with the highest marks.
Upon that, in 1998 she joined Moscow Theatre Center "Vishnevy Sad" headed by Honored Art-Worker of Russia Alexander Vilkin.
