After the army to the military institute. Education after the army: where to go to study and how to enter a university with secondary education

Hello, my dear readers!

So with this article I would like to slightly supplement the previous one. Namely, to raise this question: is it possible to enter military school from the army.

Looking ahead, I answer the question: yes. And how is it even possible? But there are a number of nuances. Read below to see what obstacles there may be and how they can be overcome. The rest of the questions are reflected in the comments, I think that you can find everything on this topic in them: from tattoos to questions with the Unified State Exam.

What advantages does a soldier have from the army?

The undeniable advantage is the change of scenery. Wherever you serve, in six months you will get tired of everything. And changing the situation for a month and a half (if the outcome is negative) is only good for health.

As a rule, competent soldiers choose a university closer to home, because which troops you serve in and which ones you enroll in is also not particularly important.

We had a paratrooper, a marine, several infantry people join our air defense, and my deputy platoon commander served in the Air Force.

In addition, the time before you are included in the lists of a military institution is considered 1 to 1. That is, you were admitted for a month and a half, but if you were not admitted, a month and a half is counted towards your service. (Let me remind you that the training time at a military school is half, that is, a year of school and six months of military service).

Now I don’t know about the fare, but I would venture to guess that it’s free. Because for part you will be on a business trip, and the business trip is paid. So the soldier does not risk anything when enlisting.

What are the disadvantages

If you sincerely want to enroll, then the downside may be a real lag in knowledge from civilian applicants, since they are after school, and you have already been serving for some time.

In addition, there are standards for physical training. For soldiers they are overpriced and you will take the exam in military uniform. So prepare in advance. That’s how it was, now everyone is equal (note dated 01.2015).

Exam standards: 3km cross-country, 100m run and pull-ups. The bigger, the faster and the bigger, the better.

Regarding the relationship in part

And probably one of the main questions: they won’t let you go. Here I will say this: firstly, everything depends on you. If you are in good standing with the commanders, if you did not drink their blood, then they will gladly let you go. They will write good characterization, maybe they’ll even talk to friends at the place of admission. It is not hard.

But if you are a rascal, then problems may arise. And I understand such commanders (paradoxical, right? - in theory, they should get rid of bad things).

But they cannot simply let go of anyone of their own free will. Therefore, your actions are as follows:

  • I need to write a report addressed to the nearest commander like, please send me as a candidate for admission there and there;
  • wait for an answer.

You just need to do everything very much in advance. Since, by law, each commander has from 10 to 30 days to make a decision. The period is calculated from the date of registration in the combat unit. I repeat this for the scoundrels or those who for some reason fell among them. Because a good soldier will be processed in a week.

Naturally, you can lose the report and pretend that it didn’t exist. To prevent this from happening, it must be sent by registered mail with notification to the address of the unit. Such documents must be registered, and therefore they will not be able to lose your report and will be obliged to give some kind of intelligible answer.

Health

The only obstacle may be health restrictions. It’s hard to believe, but your health may be enough to be drafted into the army, but not enough to enter a military school.

Hence a little advice: don’t go to the medical unit as much as possible, especially don’t go there if you decide to enroll in a military university. And ask to do desired result VVK in part is possible. And here, as you understand, the commander can again help or harm.

Hence the conclusion: it is possible to enter a military school from the army, but you need to be committed to this from the very beginning. Any commander can see for what purpose the soldier applied as a candidate: to avoid service or to study. Don't look for something stupider than yourself. Good luck with your application!

    Hello. Last year, after graduating from school, I tried to enter a military school, but they didn’t accept me for health reasons (flat feet of the 2nd degree), I had to go to a regular university, but I realized that this is not for me, I need discipline and drill, and all the benefits they won’t be superfluous. I want to drop out of college and try to enter a military school after leaving the army, do you think it’s worth trying or better year serve and then decide?
    I’ll ask one more question, it seems they say that starting in 2015, a competition for certificates will be introduced in universities, so does this not apply to military universities?

    • I think it’s worth going to the military registration and enlistment office and try again to formalize the case as a military case. Because the requirements are different for cadets and soldiers. And you can serve in the army and not become fit for military service.
      As such, there has always been a competition for certificates. If the points scored are equal. So nothing will change for military universities.

      I am closing comments on this article. Since the topic of Coming from the Army has been exhausted.

    It’s very easy for us from Belarus to apply because we have our own competition, and as I understand, Russian universities are not very popular with us this time. It is much easier for us to pass physical exams. these are two standards, and in the third we have many cadet classes (I study in it) which make it possible to enroll without problems (with cadet schools they enter without any competition at all).

    • The competition depends on the university. Somewhere it’s too high (the same Mozhaika last year or the border in Galitsyno), and somewhere it’s not enough. On average, there is probably also a shortage in the hospital. The state has come to its senses that there is no one to serve, and there are not so many qualified schoolchildren.

  1. Hello, can you tell us about the training of foreigners at a military university in Russia? More precisely about Belarusians.

    • Hello. Alas, I don’t really know anything. The officer trainees studied with us. We did not have Belarusian civilian cadets. And I haven’t heard that those with whom I served were in universities (motorists, signalmen, logistics officers, rabbis, political officers, physical education instructors, railway workers, chemists). Can not help.

      • Thank you. From what I managed to find out, Belarusians live and study together with Russians.

        • Which university? Maybe I have someone to ask. It became interesting for me.

          • To the Ryazan Higher Air Command School, Air Force Academy named after Professor N.E. Zhukovsky and Yu.A. Gagarin, Military Space Academy named after A.F. Mozhaisky, Tyumen Higher Military Engineering Command School, Military Institute (Railway Troops and Military Communications) of the Military Academy of Logistics, Branch of the Military Academy of Aerospace Defense, Branch of the Military Academy of the Ministry of Defense Russian Federation(Cherepovets), Military Academy of Military Air Defense of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (Smolensk)

            • In Smolensk in my time, students lived and studied. Promoted officers. There have never been Belarusians in the special faculty. I will of course clarify. Although today the situation may only be gaining momentum since last/this year.

    Hello, I have a question, now I’m in the 10th grade and things are not very good with my studies, the average score is about 4.2, I’m afraid by the 11th grade it will remain approximately the same, my physical preparation is good, I’m healthy, I hope that I will pass the EGE without problems high scores, so, is there a chance to enter a military university with bad grades and an average score in the certificate in the region of 4

    • Of course you can! Certificates are compared if all other indicators are equal, which happens very rarely.

      • Thank you very much, another question, if I pass excellently in pull-ups, 3 km running, swimming, but pass mediocre at 3-4 in the 100-meter run (or 60), will my chances of getting in still be high? And I’m also not very tall, 172 cm, maybe by 11th grade I’ll be 175, does it affect anything?

        • From the end: growth is not important for most universities.
          But with physical education everything is not simple. Now she is accepted based on points. And 100 meters is a more beneficial exercise than 3 km. And swimming is generally accepted at very few universities - there are no conditions. For what and what points you can see on any website of any military man in the “Applicant” section.

    I'm going to leave the army, but I want to go to a military training center, and as far as I know, there are no barracks there, all the students live in a dormitory, and I assume no one will support me in the dormitory in the summer.

    • )) there will be more. They will put up tents, but the soldiers and non-locals will definitely not be allowed to go home. I would have no illusions. Let better later It will be a pleasant surprise that they will let you go. There's no point in guessing.

    And if I go to university, will I be able to spend the summer at home or will I have to spend the summer in a unit? And is it possible to wait at home for the decision of the admissions committee if your home is nearby?

    • If you are from the army, definitely in a unit (in a school), if you are a civilian, then of course you can do it at home.

    But I also heard that you can choose a Ministry of Internal Affairs university instead of a military university. Is this true?

    • I can’t answer reliably, I didn’t delve into it.

    Were they abused, that is, they enrolled in studies until the end of their military service, and then dropped out? Is it possible to do this with impunity?

    • What is the violation of the law? I didn’t like it, I chose the wrong thing, I made a mistake. Doesn't it happen? This is not a prison - this is an educational institution. If you don't like it, leave.
      The point is that until 2005, the biggest punishment for a cadet was expulsion and sending directly to the army without paying money for training (which the former soldier does not face). Then they introduced that expelled cadets pay the cost of their studies (I don’t know exactly under what conditions and how, but I know it’s expensive). Therefore, now it is completely unprofitable and stupid for the army to mow down like this.

    Hello, I have a question: can they not allow me to join another type of military? And in case of unsuccessful admission, will the travel days be included in the service period? Thanks in advance.

    • Hello! The type of troops is not important. They must be released anywhere. In case of unsuccessful admission, all days go 1:1 to the service and this was abused, especially before. We had one who even got accepted, but refused to study.

    Understood thanks.

    Do I need to indicate it in the report?) If for some reason I don’t receive it, can I still go without it? Call the institute and find out whether they called me or not..

    • There is no need to write anything extra in the report. That’s the beauty of it: you can call the admissions office and find out everything two weeks before the “H” time. And you can’t, but you need to interact with them. Because school websites are made on the knees and letters are sent out the same way.

    Where will the challenge come? To the military registration and enlistment office?

    • Where do you indicate or at your place of registration. The Russian Post brought me my call.

    Hello. I have this situation. This year I will go into the army for spring conscription, most likely in April. The report on admission to the school must be submitted to the commander before March 1. The call comes until May 20, then I must be sent to a university. But it turns out I have to be demobilized in April next year and won’t be able to leave the army? And if you act as a civilian, then the application must be submitted to the military registration and enlistment office before April 1, again I don’t have time. Tell me what should I do? Thank you in advance.

    • What difference does it make to come from the army or not from the army? The main thing is that the personal file ends up in the right university and the call comes. Therefore, let him be sent from the troops, and go as a free civilian, for me it’s even easier. It’s easier in terms of paperwork to prepare the case, and then with the trip itself.

    Hello! I am a contract sergeant, squad commander. Contract since May 2013. I'm 24 this May. I want to enter a military school. The question is, is it possible or not? What salary awaits me and what is the procedure for submitting all documents?

Most of you have probably encountered this and asked yourself the question, what should I do? after the army. It is difficult for a young man who has served in the army to find his place in life. And it’s especially more difficult for those who couldn’t get it before being drafted higher education.

Not everyone could have the opportunity to study full-time, these were different reasons, did not do well at school, disadvantage family budget or just your laziness. But now there is a problem, you must decide on your future destiny. On initial stage The main thing is that you should decide for yourself whether to go to study or to work. Although many people combine these two options. To do this, we will consider each option in detail.

Where to go to work after the army?

First, we determine our own potential and skills. By the way, I already wrote in a previous article “ Preparation for the army “that even before conscription you can already become a driver. This could be useful to you in the army, and after it when choosing a profession. At least at the initial stage.

If you already have knowledge in some area, then first of all you need to look for a job related to these skills.

In our life, it is easier for men to find work than for women. For example, if you were a driver, then of course you have had to deal with car repairs, so your chance of getting a job will increase. You can get a job as a driver or in a car service as a mechanic. Why not get a job as a salesperson in an auto parts store.

Better yet, after the army, try to get a job in law enforcement agencies (police, FSB, armed forces, Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation). By the way, today this is the most best option and even because it has one of the highest salaries.

Where should I go to study?

If you were unable to enter a university before the army, you should not despair . After all, you are faced with the most important question - what to do after the army? Here you should know that after military service you have advantages when entering a university, i.e. you may be admitted out of competition. If you have a diploma of secondary education and have passed the Unified State Exam, then after the army you will be able to take advantage of this within a year. But I want to say right away: don’t put it off. Like, I’ll rest now, and then... Then it will be even more difficult.

For those who were in the army and did not receive higher education, there is a chance to enter any university without competition. Graduates of Suvorov and cadet schools, but this is before the army.

But definitely, when you come out of the army, you must immediately clearly decide what to do and choose your and only your path in life. If this is a military career, go straight to study. Better yet, before leaving the army, get recommendations and a referral to a military school. If you decide to forget about the army, then decide on a job based on your skills and abilities.

If you have repaid your debt to your Motherland, it’s time to think about higher education. We will tell you how to change your military ID to a record book and what bonuses you can count on.

Admission procedure

You have the right to submit documents to 5 universities at once, for 3 directions in each. To enter, you need to pass the Unified State Exam and pass internal tests at the educational institution, if necessary.

The Unified State Exam results that you received immediately after school are valid for 4 years. This means that you can use them after serving in the military. You can try to improve your results and pass the missing items. At the same time, you decide for yourself which year’s scores to provide to the university.

All current information about admission is presented on the official websites of universities, as well as in the admissions office.

What benefits exist after the army and how to get them

Of course, the army will not open doors to everything, but you can still count on some bonuses. You'll get:

  • The right to take preparatory courses at the university free of charge. If you are not confident in your abilities, this is a great opportunity to improve your knowledge. After completing such courses, your chances of admission increase significantly. A prerequisite is the presence of completed secondary education.
  • Admission advantage, if you and another applicant score the same number of points .

Applicants who have served under conscription or contract can take advantage of such benefits.

In addition to the main package of documents, you must provide:

It is best to get a recommendation in advance. To do this, a month before your transfer to the reserve, contact your immediate superior (company commander). If a positive decision is made, he requests a recommendation from the unit commander. Make sure that the document bears his signature and the seal of the military unit.

A recommendation can also be obtained after dismissal. It must be issued upon your written application, which must be considered within a month. The issuance of the document is recorded in the military ID, in the “Special Notes” section. The entry is also certified by a signature and seal.

  • presence of unfilmed disciplinary action;
  • bringing to administrative or criminal liability during service;
  • expulsion from a previous university due to violation of discipline and academic failure.

If refused, you must be given a written response explaining the reasons.

Special rights upon admission for those who have served in the army

Only applicants who received during military service can enter a university under a specially allocated quota disability, serious injuries and illnesses. They have the right to priority admission to the budget, subject to successful completion of internal tests. You can take advantage of this benefit only at one university, only in one direction. To provide it, you need to obtain a certificate of disability or a conclusion from a medical commission.

Features of admission to a military university

If you decide to link your future fate with the army, you can count on special benefits when entering a military university.

These include:

  • non-competitive admission;
  • advantage for admission with equal results with applicants who have not completed military service.

The university itself sets the procedure for distributing benefits. Prerequisites To receive them, you must have a recommendation from the commander of a military unit and successfully pass a professional selection process.

You have the right to apply to a military university directly from service(fixed-term or contract). To do this, you need to submit a report addressed to the head of the military unit, in which you need to indicate detailed information about yourself and the chosen university. The following must be attached to the report:

  • copies of birth certificate and identity document;
  • a copy of a school or college certificate;
  • autobiography;
  • characteristics from the place of service;
  • service card;
  • professional psychological selection card;
  • medical examination card and other medical documents;
  • 3 photos 4.5 x 6 cm without headdress;
  • copies of documents confirming benefits and individual achievements.

If a positive decision is made, the unit commander himself sends the documents to the university. For applicants from among the military personnel, the educational institution conducts 25-day training camps, where they prepare for professional selection.

If you are applying after leaving the service, you must submit documents yourself to the military registration and enlistment office at the place of registration. A letter of recommendation from the commander of the military unit must be attached to the application and the main package of documents.

After passing the preliminary selection at the military registration and enlistment office or military unit, you are admitted to professional selection at the university. It includes:

  • determination of general health status;
  • study of socio-psychological state;
  • internal tests, which consist of assessing the level of general education (USE), passing sports standards and creative exams (in some specialties).

If you successfully pass the professional selection process, you can count on priority admission to the university.

If you were expelled from a university for an unexcused reason, the army does not provide benefits

You can not only repay your debt to the Motherland, but also get something in return. You will receive the most benefits if you enroll in a military university. However, for several years now, discussions have been underway to ensure that all universities allocate a special quota for admission to the budget for those who have served in the army.

Answering the question “How to apply to a higher education institution without the Unified State Exam (in person, in absentia, remotely)?” It is advisable to consider three legal options for admission: through college, through retake, through a foreign institute. Where can you go, or rather, what universities are you allowed to enter without passing exams? It is worth noting that the list of data educational institutions is not secret, but you will not see a sign on the assignment of each of them that the institute is enrolling students to study without the Unified State Exam. Let's take a closer look at the legal options for entering an institute, university, or university to obtain higher education without passing the notorious Unified State Exam.

First option

Without the Unified State Exam, it is possible by law to go to college, and after receiving secondary vocational education, it is possible by law to go to college without the Unified State Exam and study according to an abbreviated program.

This is the first option for a legal and official way to obtain higher education without passing the Unified State Exam, that is, through entering college.

Second option

Enter any foreign university and later transfer to a Russian university without passing the Unified State Exam. There are a number of Russian universities that can help with this if, for some reason, the applicant does not have the required Unified State Exam results, or has not taken it at all.

This option is not obvious, it is not as simple as it seems, but in practice it exists and can be used absolutely legally and legally.

Third option

Less popular, but also has its place. If Unified State Exam results are unsatisfactory, in which case the law provides for its retake. Thus, you can work with a tutor and eventually score the required number of points for admission in compulsory subjects - “mathematics” and “Russian language” and additional subjects of the applicant’s choice.

One of the disadvantages of this option is the lost time for preparation and retake and the lack of guarantees that during the retake you will be able to score the desired number of points.

Current legislation in the field of education allows you to enroll in a university, university, or institute for higher education without passing the Unified State Exam - the Unified State Exam. In general, anyone can apply. Some after the army, some after college, there are students who want to study remotely (correspondence) and they graduated from school at a time when the Unified State Exam was not compulsory for everyone. And some of the applicants simply didn’t get the number required quantity points and at the same time does not want to wait for a retake or the next set.

It’s good for those who managed to enroll in a university or college before reaching adulthood. Then the military registration and enlistment office will have to wait, because the student has.

But what about those who do not fit into any of these circumstances and must pay their debt to the state? They have only one choice: to serve in the army.

Let's figure out what happens to those who have passed this life test, and what life prospects they face.

How do you get drafted into the army?

Only the military registration and enlistment office knows when you will get there. Often a young person can fit into his boots long before graduating from university. But most often the plot unfolds according to one of three scenarios:

  1. Upon reaching adulthood immediately after graduating from school. Sometimes young men are taken away even before they know their Unified State Exam results.
  2. Immediately after receiving a university diploma. The university provides a unique opportunity in the form of a deferment from the army for the period of study, which Suz cannot boast of.
  3. While studying at university. This happens if the student has already taken . They can also enlist in the army directly from an educational institution when a student was expelled from one institute, but then he /re-enrolled/ in another.

Particularly resourceful students know how to avoid joining the army after college. To do this, you will have to conduct educational activities until the age of 27. That is, after receiving a diploma, enroll in a master's program, then continue their studies in graduate school and then on an academic path.

However, in universities there is such a thing as a military department. Along with the main university classes, you seem to attend military-themed classes, take tests and standards, but for this you are not accepted into the army (yet!). At the same time, additional stars are added to your “karma”, which make you a rank higher than other newcomers, if you are eventually recruited into service.

Where can you go after the army: work, study, join the army

Military service after higher education will even be useful for many. After all, after receiving the coveted diploma, the graduate will have time to think a little about whether he wants to follow the chosen path or is it better to turn somewhere else. And a bunch of randomly acquired knowledge will be a little organized in your head. That’s why there are a lot of options when it comes to where you can go after the army with a higher education.

Another thing is choice. life path after military service with basic school education. This is where the worst thing begins, because young people will have to choose a further direction in life, in which they are unlikely to have such a successful and legitimate opportunity to take a break:

  • where is it better to go to work after the army;
  • where can you go after the army;
  • Is it possible to stay in the army forever?

Others are determined by the choice of profession in the service. In this case, it is much easier for them to understand who to study after the army. For example, many conscript cadets acquire knowledge and skills of future fields of activity: signalman, radio electrician, driver.

And most of the demobilized people understand that they will no longer be able to live without the army upon returning home. Therefore, they are trying to connect their future with the same military theme. In this case, many are welcome with open arms in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Emergency Situations and other law enforcement agencies. There is also always the opportunity to continue to serve under a contract - this is to do everything that they usually did in the army, only to still receive money for it and have the opportunity to move up the career ladder.

Work after the army: the most popular options

So, if you decide that studying after the army can wait, and it’s best for you to go to work, then it’s time to decide on the type of activity.

We bring to your attention the most common and reasonable advice on where and with whom you can go to work after the army without education.

The army as a job after the army

“The army after the army is a mockery!” - you say. But if you think about it, you can find many advantages in this scenario. And this is especially suitable for those who, after completing their service, have not yet come to a common decision about what to do and where they can enroll (boy or girl) after the army with or without the Unified State Exam.

So, here are a few advantages to continuing in the military under contract before or after higher education:

  • a high probability of continuing to serve in the same unit to which you were drafted;
  • decent wages;
  • provision of housing and, most often, food;
  • provision of special benefits upon retirement;
  • upon reaching retirement - provision of housing in any corner of Russia, which can become your property.

There are also some disadvantages here. In addition to the fact that soldiers must be prepared to be sent to hot spots, which happens quite rarely, they often have to intervene in resolving local acute conflicts. Another disadvantage is frequent moving from place to place, service away from home. But often only those who have managed to start a family suffer from this. Single young people are more mobile and see romance in this. After all, they have a unique opportunity to see all the beauties of their native country for free.

Shift work

This is another job option after the army without education for those who have just served. It is almost the same as contract service. The only difference is that young people are most often sent to areas with difficult climatic conditions.

For example, if you were sent north to build the BAM, then you can be sure of providing preferential pension, which, of course, is a huge plus.

True, high wages contrasted with rare visits with family. And if you ever acquire one, then it is better to start looking for another job option, since only very few are able to withstand such conditions.

Private Unitary Enterprise/Individual Entrepreneur

if you have start-up capital and the idea of ​​where to apply it, you can start working for yourself and not be tormented by the question of where to go after the army without education.

Owning your own company is an excellent opportunity to work for yourself, develop in a highly specialized field that is interesting from all points of view and brings profit.

True, many still lack certain knowledge and skills (for example, basic accounting) to start their own business. Therefore, do not discount information about whether after the army it is possible to enroll on a budget and go to college.

Maintenance Master

If before the army you had some talent in the domestic sphere, it is quite possible to put it into practice upon returning from service.

Without higher education you can repair household appliances, reinstall programs on PCs and smartphones, set up equipment.

Despite the fact that this type of activity can be done without a higher education degree, it is unlikely to make you a millionaire. To earn a decent living, you will have to work for many years to develop a decent client base and improve your knowledge.

Please note if the social services in your area offer any vocational courses such as free education after the army.

University as a job

Don’t be surprised, but studying at a university after the army can be perceived as the main type of income!

If you have already received a university diploma, you can continue your studies after military service, first in a master's program, and then in graduate school.

Scientific activity as a continuation of education is paid. So this is a good option.

Where can you go after the army with minimal preparation?

It doesn't always make sense to continue studying after the army. But most often it is. Especially if you didn't finish what you started.

Another thing is to think optimal place and form of training. So where to go after serving in the army if you are not a luminary in the field of science and do not want to strain your brain too much?

The optimal solution is to enroll in a military institute/university/college/university after the army. It will be much easier for a girl or guy after military service to do this (even on a budget) than for an ordinary civilian applicant.

Also, those who have completed their military service will be welcome in such structures as the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, and the FSB. Those who are suited to the soldier's life under the regime or those who have certain prospects in these areas go there.

Before you go and enter the FSB academy, riot police unit, Ministry of Emergency Situations, Ministry of Internal Affairs or a military school after the army, you need to understand why they are so happy about young people after the army. There are several reasons for this:

  1. Full focus on service. Young people in civilian life spend a lot of effort on resolving the issue of... Those who have already served breathe freely and are completely focused on gaining the experience and knowledge that the educational institution offers them.
  2. Proper level of physical fitness. Many applicants, when entering the above-mentioned power structures, fail the physical endurance test. It will not be difficult for former servicemen to pass any standards, because if they managed to pass the physical. training in the army, nothing will scare you anymore. With it you can go to security guards, police officers, Emergency Situations Ministry, collectors, and so on.
  3. Moral readiness. They meet in civilian life different types people and characters. People who went through army school learned many lessons for themselves. They formed such important qualities as discipline, responsibility, strict control of behavior and actions, resourcefulness. These qualities are excellent assistants and necessary traits of any leader.

After serving in the army and studying at one of these higher institutions, the graduate will receive another gift. If he goes to work further along the chosen path, he will be assigned a higher military rank(may differ in different structures).

How to get a higher education after the army: admission features

Many people believe that they can choose any type of training after military service, since those who have served do not have to pass any exams.

We hasten to disappoint you: you will not be able to enroll and study after the army without the Unified State Exam, no matter what university you decide to enroll in. Therefore, study well at school in order to successfully pass the unified exam and secure a place at the university when you return.

But there is also good news for those who gave their debt to the Motherland. The Ministry of Education has adopted a decree that the results of the Unified State Examination and the General Examination will be valid for two years. So if you were taken right after school, barely allowed to write a unified exam, you will have another whole year after serving in the army to choose where to go to study and use the certificate.

Former soldiers have a much greater choice of places to go without education and where to study. For example, they will be happy to be accepted into a police school, the Academy of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, or a military college due to their excellent physical fitness and discipline skills.

During service, young people do not have the opportunity to repeat previously acquired knowledge. Therefore, before deciding where to enroll after military service, it is recommended to take a 3-6 month preparatory course. They will increase your chances of admission.

If you have a good relationship with the unit commander, you can try to agree with him to start training while still in service

Obtaining higher education after the army: are there any benefits?

The state provides certain. But those who have just returned from the army do not have to count on special help, although some vague wording is indicated in the Federal Law.

The only thing a student who has served can hope for is an advantage in admission, all other things being equal. That is, if you wrote the Unified State Examination with 90 points and the same number was written by an applicant who failed or was declared unfit, then preference will be given to you. Weak, but at least some consolation...

There is another point. When applying to the military registration and enlistment office, the university that the student has chosen must accept him on preferential terms.

The only case when a student can go to study after the army without the Unified State Exam is if at the time of his service he has an incomplete or complete higher education from a military university.

Military service: BEFORE or AFTER university?

Often the conscription company does not give us the opportunity to decide where and when to go to study. One fine day, strangers simply take you far from home, force you to do something that you would never do yourself, and in general a lot of things happen that you would not want.

But if suddenly the military registration and enlistment office gives you such a choice, great! Then you are faced with a task that will not be easy to solve.

Since 2011, school graduates have had a unique opportunity. They were given a short deferment while they were entering universities. Now everyone has the opportunity to try to enroll first. If you fail this chance, with the highest educational institution I’ll have to say goodbye until I return from military service.

But there are those who deliberately refuse to use this gift. Some young people believe that it is better to “shoot out” right away, returning next year as a free man and calmly trying to enroll. Such daredevils will command respect not only from fellow students, but also from teachers, who often scare their students with expulsion and blackmail them with premature military service.

Another plus in favor of this decision is quick and unhindered employment after graduation. You don't have to lose the knowledge, skills and self-confidence you've acquired to get the job you want.

However, the most popular solution is still “study first, then everything else.” Having entered the university, young people are trying with all their might to find ways to escape military service (“opt out”, undergo training at military department, even start a family).

Well, if you have firmly decided that you will go to serve immediately after receiving your diploma, rest assured: your courage will be rewarded. Typically, graduates are sent to more prestigious fields: missile forces, air defense and other high-tech industries, where better conditions and stricter with hazing. In addition, there is a small chance that you will perform work close to your specialty.

You should not treat the army as something disgusting, from which you should definitely try to escape. The army is a serious school of life, an important step that everyone should definitely take. young man for the formation of a holistic personality.

Always remember that life does not end after the army. The same house awaits you, the same life around. At the same time, new horizons will open up before you, which you can confidently conquer by mastering certain knowledge and skills in the service. And if necessary, there will always be a student assistance service nearby, with which you can always be confident in the future!
