The struggle when entering a military institute. How to enter a military school

Well, again the article is not according to plan, but no longer an “emergency issue”, as was the case with the article. Article “Pros and cons of studying at a military institute”- this is the answer to the question of Vladimir Kuznetsov from the city of Armavir, which he asked me with the help of . Vladimir is graduating from school this year and is preparing to enter. I sent documents for admission to the Perm Military Institute of Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Vladimir saw it on the Internet and asked: “My dream is to become an officer. So I wonder what qualities are important in order to study at a military institute, and also what are the pros and cons of military training?”.

The question is not on the topic of the blog, but clearly to the address, since for 5 years of my life I myself have been learning the basics of military science (and I am still learning it now).

Dear Vladimir, it is commendable that you not only dream of becoming an officer, but also take some action for this. Well, your dream is very noble. It turns out that not all of us want to become models and showmen. Regarding the qualities required for training in military institute. Now I won’t say “loud words” about courage and so on, there is one very important quality - BE YOURSELF! This is what Omar Khayyam wrote: “Be yourself, the other roles are already taken”. And in military institute It's very hard to be who you really are. I only came to this realization in my 3rd year. Well, you still need to show your character and endurance. For example, when I entered the 1st year, there were 103 of us, but at graduation there were only 82. As you can see, almost 20% dropped out, and this is a very good result. It’s also very important to be able to stand up for yourself, anything can happen in a men’s team.

Well, the last part of your question about the pros and cons of studying in military institute. The question is very rhetorical, but I will try to answer it. Let's start with the advantages, there are many of them. All the advantages of studying at a military institute can be attributed, oddly enough, to a person’s desire to “protect himself.” Indeed, they tear you away from your mother’s pies, put a uniform on you, and the “drill” begins. Many parents want to protect their children from the negative influence of the street in this way. After all, in military institute dismissals are strictly regulated (for example, I went on dismissal for the first time 5 months after taking the oath). Vladimir, a question for you: are you ready for this? In general, it is possible to classify applicants into military institutions by purpose:

Continuation of the family officer dynasty.
I just want to become an officer (your case, and mine too, by the way).
I like wearing a military uniform (and there are those too).
“Getting out” of the army (this was a common occurrence when you served in the army for 2 years).
The wishes of the parents (usually they complete their studies until the 3rd or 4th year and are expelled).
Social guarantees and benefits.

Let's stop at the last one. Military service gives you a guarantee that you will definitely receive your salary (military pay) on the 22nd of the month. Also, after serving a certain period of time, you receive an apartment and a fairly high (by Russian standards) pension. In addition, you can retire by age 40. There is also the right to free travel once a year (for yourself and your family), paid vacation, and a 13th (possibly 14th) salary at the end of the year. Although, they say that everything will change on January 1, 2012, when military salaries will be raised.

And now about the cons, there are a lot of them too. What day of the week is it today? Sunday, I think. And I only came home from work at 7 pm. Here's one drawback: long working hours. As long as they tell you, you will remain in the service (often to the detriment of the interests of the family). The second disadvantage is that at any moment they can be transferred to serve on the other side of the country, that is, “life out of suitcases.” Service involves a lot of stress, but not everywhere, of course. It depends where you end up serving. By the way, the main disadvantage for me is the lack of “freedom”. Although, you get used to it over time... alas!

I think I have already written enough on your question. I could, of course, answer you personally, but the article will be interesting for other people, so I’m publishing it on my blog.

Vladimir, I made my choice. What your choice will be is up to you. But I’ll say one thing for sure: after graduation from the walls military institute you will come out a completely different person. Your outlook on life will change completely. By the way, watch the video, it will help you make the right choice:

I wish all my readers well, and Vladimir Kuznetsov from Armavir - successful admission to Perm Military Institute of Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.

Military schools have always stood apart from other educational institutions. Getting into such an educational institution is not easy. Admission to such a school is associated with a number of mandatory conditions and requirements for the applicant - exams, physical and psychological tests, standards.

Types of military schools of the Russian Federation

Currently in Russia there are two types of professional military education - basic and higher. The first category includes:

cadet school;
Suvorov School;
Nakhimov School.

Male citizens under 18 years of age are admitted to cadet, Suvorov and Nakhimov schools.

The duration of study at the school is from 2 to 4 years.

The second type of professional military educational institutions includes:

Higher Command School;
academies;
institutes.

The duration of study at a higher military school is from 2 to 3 years.

Each of these types of educational institutions has its own profile specifics and professional orientation:

marine;
ground troops;
missile forces;
airborne troops;
railway troops;
Cossack;
military-technical;
military music;
military justice.

The main feature of such educational institutions is the combination of theory and practice in the learning process. Such a universal system of mastering the military craft allows one to master the art of war to perfection and train elite command staff of the country's armed forces.

Requirements for candidates

Before enrolling, you need to familiarize yourself with the selection rules existing at the educational institution. And they are diametrically different from the requirements of other educational institutions for their applicants. Thus, the recruitment of applicants for admission to a military school after the 11th grade is carried out by the draft commissions of local military registration and enlistment offices among civilians without military service experience. In this case, cadet candidates are subject to a preliminary attribution of their suitability for training in a military school.

Among the main requirements:

citizenship of the Russian Federation,
age and level of education,
health status,
level of physical fitness,
professional suitability based on the results of psychological and physiological testing.

Admission to a military school after the 9th grade is made only with the written consent of the parents upon submission of a special package of documents to the admissions committee of the educational institution. In addition, the little applicant is required to pass entrance exams and withstand physical tests in the form of summer training camps.

Upon successful completion of all stages of selection, a group of applicants led by an educational officer is placed on the territory of the military school to continue the entrance campaign. Here, applicants live in barracks conditions. If internal regulations and discipline are violated, the applicant may be disqualified.

Documents for admission

What else is needed for admission, besides confidence and a strong desire to become an officer? First of all, this is a package of special documents:

An application addressed to the director of the educational institution indicating the full name, date of birth of the applicant, address at the place of registration, the name of the commissariat and its postal code, information about the citizenship and level of education of the applicant, identification details, personal contacts and the name of the specialty for which the applicant is applying.
Autobiography and characteristics from the place of study or work.
Certificate of education or certificate of the student's current academic performance.
A photocopy of the birth certificate, diploma, passport and documents confirming the special rights of candidates upon enrollment in the school.
Three photo cards 4.5x6.

This entire host of documents is formed into the applicant’s personal file.

Exams

The next stage of admission is examinations for admission to a military school and testing of knowledge of the general education program.

To enter a military school after 9th grade, you must pass entrance exams in Russian language and mathematics.

For applicants who have completed 11th grade, it is necessary to pass the Unified State Exam in the following subjects:

Mathematics.
Russian language.
Physics.

What exams must be taken when enrolling in the military?additionally, it is necessary to check with each educational institution separately. Depending on the profile of the school, they will be different.

Standards

The third and final step of the admissions campaign is passing the mandatory physical fitness tests. There are two options here:

Passing an exam based on the results of excellent grades in physical education and certificates of victories in sports competitions.
Performing examination exercises in physical education.

In the second case, the standards for admission to a military school are passed strictly according to the physical standards of the Ministry of Health and only after examination by a medical commission.

In the physics program training includes:

1000 m cross;
100 m and 3 km run;
swim 50-100 m;
pull-ups on the bar (from 11 to 17 times).

There is only one attempt for each task without the right to retake it. Exceptions can only be made in unforeseen cases - falling off the crossbar, falling, etc.

Privileges

With fairly high competition, many applicants are interested in the question: how to enroll in the military without a competition? In this case, the legislation of the Russian Federation provides for a whole system of benefits and privileges:

children without guardianship and orphans;
children who graduated from a secondary educational institution with honors or a medal;
graduates of preparatory courses at military schools and universities based on the results of final exams;
persons who have completed the first year of a civilian university in a specialized specialty at a military school;
graduates of other military schools and boarding schools with basic flight training;
persons under 20 years of age, whose one of the parents is a disabled person of group I;
participants in hostilities.

Thus, the military school is a good preparatory school for the younger generation to study military affairs. However, this is just a base that provides primary knowledge and skills for entering universities.

Military universities traditionally stand apart from higher education institutions: special conditions for admission, strict discipline and subordination, a specific regime...

The vast majority of civilian universities in Russia are subordinate to the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, while military universities are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense, which establishes and regulates rules and procedures for them. Additionally, all military universities are divided by branch of the military: universities of the missile forces, ground forces, air force, etc.

If you have decided to enroll in a military university, be prepared for the fact that at all stages of the journey, from submitting documents to receiving the coveted “crust”, you will have to communicate with people in uniform. Therefore, when collecting information about a military university, you should not focus on general civilian rules and guidelines. For example, the rules for admission to military universities practically do not take into account the innovations of recent years: while the majority of “civilian” applicants take entrance exams in the form of tests, applicants to military universities take dictations and tests in the old fashioned way. The same can be said about the Unified State Exam: being outside the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education, military leaders have the right to consider the Regulations on the Unified State Exam as information for thought, but not as a direct guide to action.

Universities with a broad profile

The range of specialties in which modern military universities provide training is quite extensive. The specialization of a university mainly depends on the profile, or more precisely, on the type of military service to which the educational institution belongs. At the same time, many military universities duplicate civilian areas of training, and more and more often their “range” includes the usual economic and legal specialties. Thus, the Military University of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation trains sociologists, lawyers, managers of socio-cultural activities, translators and social work specialists.

Some of the specialties offered by the universities of the Ministry of Defense are multifunctional - graduates are equally in demand both in “military field conditions” and “in civilian life.” First of all, this concerns the engineering and technical areas. For example, from the walls of the Military Technical University of the Federal Service for Special Construction of the Russian Federation come engineers of hoisting and transport, road, construction machinery and equipment, specialists in industrial and civil construction, in the design of highways, airfields, transport tunnels, etc.

Finally, a certain part of military professions lies in a highly specific field of application that has no analogues in civilian life. For example, after graduating from the Academy of Civil Defense of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Russian Federation, you can become a specialist in mathematical support for research into weapons, equipment and the use of civil defense forces.

Autograph for the military commissar

To submit documents to a military university, the applicant will have to go to the military registration and enlistment office (at his place of residence).

You must have with you:

passport;
a copy of the document on secondary education (secondary school students provide a certificate of current academic performance);
three photographs (without headdress, size 4.5x6 cm);
characteristics from the place of study or work;
autobiography.

At the military registration and enlistment office, the applicant writes an application requesting admission to exams to the chosen university. All this must be done before April 20 of this year.

After the initial documents have been submitted, all that remains is to pass a medical examination, and yesterday’s student becomes a candidate to study at a military university. Applications are reviewed by the university admissions committee, and the final decision on admission to the exams (or refusal) is communicated to candidates through the military registration and enlistment office before June 20.

The procedure for submitting documents is somewhat different for those who currently serve in the Armed Forces: in this case, the applicant, before April 1 of the current year, submits a report addressed to his immediate commander, and he, having provided the petition with all the necessary papers, passes it on further up the chain of command. .

Another feature of admission to military universities is that there are quite strict age restrictions. Young people who have not served in the army can become cadets from 16 to 22 years old, having “experience” in army service - up to 24 (age is determined at the time of application).

Fell - did push-ups

Entrance tests to military universities take place from July 1 to July 20, and they are also somewhat different from “civilian” ones. To pass the competitive selection, knowledge of the Pythagorean theorem and the gimlet rule will not be enough.

The first stage is a psychological and psychophysical examination of candidates. Then - a physical fitness test: pull-ups on the bar (11 times - "excellent", 9 - "good", 7 - "satisfactory"), a hundred meters, a 3 km run. And finally, the actual exams in general education subjects. They usually consist of mathematics (major subject) and dictation in the Russian language. The third exam (physics, chemistry, history) depends on the profile of the chosen educational institution.

The average competition for military universities is 2.5–3 people per place. However, these figures (not too high for Moscow) speak, rather, not about the ease of admission, but about its specifics. On the one hand, there are really few people who want to get a military education, on the other hand, not every civilian with average training is able to go through all the “military tricks” associated with admission (questionnaire - checking the psycho-emotional state - physical training - general education base).

The system of benefits provided for by the legislation of the Russian Federation for those entering higher educational institutions also applies to military universities: orphans, medalists, winners of Olympiads, etc. are granted various privileges. Disabled people are excluded from this list for obvious reasons.

I would become a field marshal...
Graduates leave the alma mater with the rank of lieutenant. All newly-minted commanders are expected to be assigned: at least five years after graduating from a military university, yesterday's cadet must devote to the Fatherland. The further fate of the graduate will depend both on the type of military service and place of service, as well as on personal qualities and ambitions. It is enough to look at the political and managerial elite of our country to understand that graduates of military universities can make a brilliant career and achieve impressive success. For officers who want to achieve a high position, there are universities that provide a second military education, adjunct courses, specialized institutes for advanced training, etc.

Cadet or student?

When all tests are passed, the candidate becomes a cadet. This status corresponds to the status of a student at a civilian university, however, there are more differences between a cadet and a student than similarities. If with the beginning of their student life the most cheerful and carefree time begins for young people, then with the beginning of their studies at a military university this very time ends. Routine, schedule and chain of command become a fundamental element in the life of all future officers.

Cadets are removed from military registration (they are not subject to general conscription) and placed on a special register - enlisted for active military service. For the first two years, they (regardless of the need for government housing) live in barracks and, in addition to training, perform duties traditionally included in the concept of military service. From the third year you can move to a dormitory or live at home.

All types of allowances are issued to the cadet, and he is given uniforms. The holidays last two weeks in winter and a month in summer. In fact, studying at a military university is equivalent to military service.

Sergey Litvinov, graduate of a military university:

The lack of hazing is more than compensated for by strict discipline, exhausting physical activity, and in the first and second years, also by various chores. Be prepared to learn how to hold a jackhammer in your hands, lay asphalt, engage in all types of repairs of premises and furniture, in the fall - harvesting crops in the fields near Moscow, in winter - endlessly clearing roads from snow and many other useful tasks.

You will be taught how to shoot, operate military equipment, perform drills and carefully take care of your military uniform. At the same time, you will need to study military regulations and, of course, all specialty disciplines. You will have to study at full strength, often at night, since very serious disciplinary sanctions are imposed for poor performance.

Until recently, such a strict schedule was immutable for anyone who dreamed of studying at a military university. Today, along with the harsh tradition, there is also a softer regime - for those who enroll on a paid basis. (The first experiment on recruiting “paid workers” took place at the Military University of the Russian Ministry of Defense in 2003). Such cadets are spared the need to bear the hardships and hardships of military service: their life differs little from the life of ordinary civilian students.

Discussion

My youngest is studying at the Mathematical Support Academy in St. Petersburg, and we ourselves are from Krasnodar. He arrived, did nothing, said he liked everything. It's not easy to study, but you don't play the fool like in regular universities. Now he’s unrecognizable, he’s matured, he’s become a man! I want to say thank you to his commanders for their care and education!

A friend studies and serves at the academy. He really likes it, he says this is the very place where you will become a man and a good friend. Good specialist teachers, there is not a single free minute (in a good way). He really likes everything! I am proud that my best friend is Mikhailovets!!!

For me personally, it was difficult to get into the KhUVVS [link-1]; the intake was large, and there were even more people; physical training is not for weaklings, but I did it, I’ll soon be a flyer)

And the interesting thing is that I am a citizen of Tajikistan, I know Russian, but I have difficulty with Physics and Mathematics, what will happen if I fail these exams? And on the sports side, I’m good, what will happen to me?

Thank you for this article, very interesting and useful. My son studies at the Military University of the Moscow Region, FACULTY OF PSYCHOLOGY, is it possible to get away from the mandatory distribution, if so, how?

Military universities: hard to study... For officers who want to achieve a high position, there are universities that provide a second military education, postgraduate courses, specialized promotion institutes Kudeikina Olga.

At this point in time, everything related to military forces and defense is quite prestigious. People in uniform can count on decent wages, benefits and allowances, provision of living space, and so on. In addition, the labor process itself is quite interesting in many ways. Several years ago, only boys were accepted for military training. But since 2013, girls began to be recruited into such educational institutions. Not all schools and academies, of course, have made this amendment, but this is why our article was written, to find out which ones.

What is a military school

At this time, in the current education system, it is possible to obtain both a specialized secondary education and a much-needed higher education in our time. Including in the military direction. The first is carried out by schools (Suvorov) and cadet corps. The second are institutes, academies, military command schools. All these institutions produce various specialists in their field: pilots, naval forces, engineers, command staff. The choice of a specific school depends on the intended profession.

Pros of military schools

In addition to promising specialized education, military schools can do no less for girls than for boys. Special disciplines, methods of teaching, increased attention to bearing and self-organization will help young people and girls to feel in advance the features of their future profession, learn how to properly manage their time, develop willpower and the right attitude towards necessity and responsibilities. Not all life circumstances are capable of achieving such an effect in character development. Military schools for girls are a rather harsh school of life, but often it is simply necessary.

What is taught in military schools

Any educational institution must provide its students with both specialized knowledge and skills, and the basic ones necessary for a productive life in modern society. It is quite obvious that military schools for girls are useful not only for training in military craft. The emphasis is on it, but ladies should also study other areas of the cultural and scientific life of society. These include the same standard subjects: Russian language and literature, mathematics of various levels, physics, chemistry, social studies and other subjects. They are taught equally in all educational institutions of any specialization. The emphasis will be on the knowledge necessary for the future profession. Accordingly, military engineers will study the exact sciences in depth, while command personnel will study psychology, social studies and other humanitarian disciplines. Any military man must be fluent in the legal basis of his work. Military schools for girls also require more rigorous physical training. This point is very important for future service.

Military school for girls: list (based on 9 classes)

First, let's look at the list of secondary specialized education schools. Military schools after 9th grade for girls:

Ekaterinburg Suvorov School;
Suvorov School in Moscow;
Suvorov School in Minsk;
Ulyanovsk School (SVU);
Suvorov School in Tver;
Suvorov School of the North Caucasus;
Kazan Suvorov School;
Suvorov School of St. Petersburg;
Military Space Cadet Corps;
Cadet Corps of Radio Electronics;
Rocket and Artillery Cadet Corps;
Military Music School in Moscow;
Cadet Corps (railway troops);
Nakhimov Naval School;
Kronstadt Naval Cadet Corps;
Military technical cadet corps.

However, getting into military schools after 9th grade is very difficult for girls. Some SVUs, as well as cadet corps, recruit students based on geographic considerations. In others, there is still an opinion that there is no place for a lady in military affairs, and therefore, during the competition for places, they choose young men. But still, a good half of the list is quite loyal to female students.

Schools based on 11 classes

Military schools for girls after 11th grade provide the opportunity to receive higher professional education in this field. The rating list of these educational institutions is headed by the Military Academy of Communications, named after Marshal of the Soviet Union S.M. Budyonny. This academy is located in the city of St. Petersburg. Postal and actual address: 194064, St. Petersburg, Tikhoretsky Avenue, building 3. There is also a branch in the city of Krasnodar, address: 350035, Krasnodar, Krasina Street, building 4. Training is provided in the following areas:

Faculty of Information Communication Technologies and Special Communication Systems;
Faculty of "Application and operation of automated systems for special purposes."

The form in which students study is full-time at the academy on a budgetary basis. The duration of training is 5 years. After graduation, students receive a diploma indicating higher professional education of the state standard. Graduates are awarded the rank of lieutenant, as well as the qualification "engineer".

The next educational institution in the rating list “Military schools for girls after 11th grade” is the Military Space Academy, named after A.F. Mozhaisky. The educational institution provides training in more than forty military specialties. The qualification fully meets the requirements for officer training. Among the girls there is a fairly high competition for a place - seven people. Last year only 30 girls were enrolled. However, the educational institution is considered one of the best in the country, and therefore it is really worth trying to enroll.

In third place is the Military Medical Academy named after S.M. Kirov in St. Petersburg. Girls who see their future as a military doctor will find a place for themselves in this educational institution.

Fourth place in the ranking is occupied by the Airborne Command School in Ryazan, named after Army General V.F. Margelova. This military school for girls includes a specialization in “the use of airborne forces communications units.”

The Military Academy of the Strategic Missile Forces named after Peter the Great ranks fifth in the ranking. The Academy opened its doors to girls in 2015. Since then, she has a fairly wide list of specialties for the fairer sex.

Military specialties for girls

Not all areas of military schools involve the education of girls. But still there are more than enough specialties to choose from. Among them are military cartography and special-purpose meteorology, taught at universities in the East Kazakhstan region, general medicine, medical and preventive medicine, pharmacy and dentistry (this can be studied at the Military Medical Academy). Various communication technologies, radio engineering, and information security are studied at the Academy of Communications. Aircraft designs, control of ballistic missile systems, radio-electronic systems, ground-based space infrastructure, collection and processing of information, information support for analytical and computer technology, topographic and geodetic support and cartography, missile and space defense systems, automated command and control systems - such a wide range of faculties offers applicants to the Military Space Academy.

How to enter a military school

Like other higher educational institutions, military schools require results from the Unified State Exam. They vary depending on the chosen specialty. For the engineering specialty, exam results in mathematics, Russian language and a specialized one in physics are required. For cartographic areas - geography, mathematics and Russian language. For a medical profile, specialized chemistry and biology and general Russian are required. For management professions, results in the Russian language, mathematics, and also social studies are required. To enroll, you must submit documents to your chosen educational institution from July 1 to July 30. During this period, professional selection and compilation of a competitive list of applicants is carried out. The documents required include a certificate of secondary general education, primary vocational education, if there is a mark on completion of complete secondary education, and secondary vocational education. The next required document is a passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation. Only persons with Russian citizenship are allowed to study at such an institution. And of course, it is necessary to present the final Unified State Exam scores.

Professional selection

Military schools pay great attention to physical training. Without a positive test of strength endurance, it is almost impossible to enter. How can a girl enter a military school? The only way is to get the highest results on the Unified State Exam, and also not only pass the standards, but it is advisable to even exceed them. The competition in military academies is quite high, which means that girls need to try to keep up with the boys in their results.

Design nuances

Applicants are required to undergo a medical examination to determine their state of health and suitability for study. Next they will undergo a test for their psycho-emotional state. In addition, all candidates are granted access to information that constitutes a state secret. If the applicant has not reached the age of majority, parental consent to study at this educational institution must be submitted in writing.

Volsk School

The Volsk Military School for girls conducts professional selection and entrance exams from July 1 to July 20. First you need to submit an application to the military commissariat. The application is submitted in a special form at the place of residence. This action is valid until April 20th. Applicants must attach an autobiography, characteristics, 6 photographs to their application, and also pass a medical examination. Candidates are assigned professional suitability groups. Enrollment is carried out with groups of 1st and 2nd degrees. Third degree candidates are admitted only if there is a shortage of students.

Suvorov School

The Suvorov Military School for girls establishes the same admission rules as the cadet corps. Student places are primarily distributed among orphans or from single-parent and large families, as well as from low-income families. Candidates must meet standards for health as well as psychological factors. The remaining places are distributed among other applicants based on academic performance.

If you have already decided on the choice of a military educational institution (or have not yet finally decided, but have no fundamental objections), start by visiting the department of the military commissariat at your place of residence.

According to the admission rules, You must submit an application about your desire to study at a higher military educational institution no later than April 20 year of admission.

After this period, military registration and enlistment office employees will have only a month left to prepare documents for candidates, conduct their medical examination and professional psychological selection, if necessary, obtain access to state secrets, and then send all documents to the appropriate universities.

If you wish to enroll to the military institutes of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia and, the application must be submitted on time until April 1 to the personnel department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at the place of residence, or to the military registration and enlistment office.

Upon admission to border institutions or the Academy of the FSB of Russia within the same timeframe, you must contact the territorial department of the FSB of Russia.

There is no need to wait until the above deadline. The sooner you visit the military registration and enlistment office/registration office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs/UFSB, the greater the reserve of irreplaceable time you will have.

And you will need it: to undergo additional medical examinations, to retake tests, to confirm your individual achievements, which give additional points upon admission, and, of course, to collect documents.

Documents for admission

Everything is quite simple with them. The application will need to be accompanied by:

a copy of the birth certificate;
a copy of the document proving the identity and citizenship of the Russian Federation (i.e. internal Russian passports);
a copy of the document on education and (or) qualifications confirming it; for students in educational institutions of secondary vocational and higher education - a certificate of training or the period of study,
autobiography;
characteristics from the place of work or study;
three certified photographs, without headdress, 4.5 x 6 cm.

The military registration and enlistment office will explain everything in detail about the documents, but I will draw your attention to the urgent the need for a characteristic:

definitions such as “responsible”, “executive”, “disciplined”, “independent”, “he is active in his studies”, “enjoys authority in the team”, “knows how to organize people”, “is able to show reasonable initiative”;
information about participation and prizes, certificates, diplomas in school, district, city olympiads, scientific and practical conferences and other competitions;
information about active participation in military-patriotic organizations, in all kinds of public events (including in their organization) and the volunteer movement;
about playing sports, winning prizes and active participation in passing the GTO standards;
about classes in technical creativity circles - i.e. about everything that could potentially add points to you when determining the category of professional psychological selection.

In your description Necessarily there must be such a conclusion : “recommended for admission to a higher military educational institution.”

In your autobiography, on the contrary, be more modest, but you must indicate if one of your parents is a military serviceman with more than 20 years of service (which gives a preferential right to enlistment), as well as the existing sports ranks and the type of sport you are involved in, activities in military-patriotic clubs, the presence of parachute jumping or light diving training (which will indicate your clearly expressed military-professional orientation and will add points in professional psychological selection).

I’ll tell you an example from my life about the importance of a correctly compiled description..

Several years ago, when I was the commander of a small military unit, I was approached by the father of a soldier who had served in our unit the year before. He got into a bad situation, committed a criminal offense, there are no options, a trial is ahead - in general, he needs a character reference. Of course, I wrote “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.”

But – in what formulations! I took as a basis the “Combat Manual of the Airborne Forces” (Part III) and the “Manual on Automotive Service in the SA and the Navy.” Well, who can resist this: “he was an example of activity, courage, endurance and management”, “he firmly knew the structure, technical capabilities and rules of operation of the machine assigned to him”; “skillfully drove the car assigned to him day and night in various road conditions in any weather”; “confidently used the route map and navigated the terrain”, etc.?

According to the defendant's response, the judge was moved - after all, he had never read anything like this before. More and more “morally stable” and “ideologically consistent.” The result is a short suspended sentence.

Unified State Exam subjects

After the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation unequivocally concluded that there would be no abandonment of the Unified State Exam, the criticism regarding the Unified State Exam that raged in past years subsided.

Admission to universities, both military and civilian, is carried out mostly according to the results of the Unified State Exam.

For admission to the vast majority of military educational institutions of the Russian Defense Ministry, as well as to the Institute of Cryptography of the Academy of the FSB of Russia, Unified State Examination results are required. Russian language, mathematics (specialized), physics.

In other military universities, the requirements are as follows:

general military schools, the Ryazan Airborne Forces, the Faculty of Economics of the Military University and a number of specialties in military institutes of logistics require Unified State Examination results in Russian language, mathematics (specialized), social studies;
translation department of the Military University, specialty “use of special intelligence units” of the Ryazan Airborne School, specialty “translation and translation studies” of the Novosibirsk Military Institute of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia - Unified State Examination in Russian language, foreign language, history;
other specialties of the institutes of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, the investigative faculty of the Academy of the FSB of Russia, the border institutes of the FSB of Russia, the legal and psychological faculties of the Military University of the Ministry of Defense - Unified State Examination Russian language, social studies, history.

A number of military educational institutions - border institutes and the Academy of the FSB of Russia, military institutes of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia and, of course, the Military University of the Ministry of Defense, in addition to the Unified State Exam, conduct additional entrance tests.

Their list and contents will be explained to you in detail at the military registration and enlistment office.
This information is also contained on the official website of the Ministry of Defense in the “Education” section (http://ens.mil.ru/education/higher.htm), or on the website of the Academy of the FSB of Russia (http://www.academy.fsb.ru/ i_priem.html).

Medical examination

We can assume that all existing health problems were identified in you a year ago during the initial military registration (carried out from January 1 to March 31 in the year the youth turned 17 years old). And if there are no health contraindications, congratulations!

The most serious health requirements are in military educational institutions for the training of pilots and navigators.

Restrictions for health reasons are set out in the order of the Russian Ministry of Defense of 1999 No. 455 “Regulations on the medical examination of flight personnel of the aviation of the RF Armed Forces” (the order is available in the reference and legal system “Consultant-Plus”, access to which is available in any regional library or directly from system website): “Citizens with normal color vision, visual acuity of at least 1.0 in each eye without correction, and blood pressure not higher than 130/80 are sent for examination to determine their suitability for admission to military educational institutions that train flight personnel. and not lower than 105/60 mm Hg, body mass index not lower than 19, body weight not more than 90 kg, height not less than 160 cm and not more than 186 cm, leg length not less than 80 cm, arm length not less than 76 cm , height in a sitting position is not less than 80 cm and not more than 97 cm.”

And if, according to the VHC doctors, you have ideal health, don’t miss your chance! Enroll in a flight school (Krasnodar, Syzran or Chelyabinsk). Provided you are fit for health reasons, it will be very easy to enter (see the “Competition” section).

All other military educational institutions have almost the same health requirements. Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated July 4, 2013 No. 565 “On approval of the Regulations on military medical examination” and Order of the Russian Ministry of Defense dated October 20, 2014 No. 770, which was issued in pursuance of this resolution, are also presented in the public domain.

There are few differences:

visual acuity (naval and border - 0.8; airborne and tank - 0.6; all others 0.5);
height: airborne school - not lower than 170 cm, border guards - not lower than 155 cm, all others - not lower than 150 cm;
scoliosis (curvature of the spine) and flat feet are contraindications for admission to naval, airborne and border schools.

I repeat: the sooner you visit the military registration and enlistment office/registration office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs/UFSB, the more time you will have to undergo additional medical examinations and retake tests in order, if necessary, to confirm your health fitness for admission to a military school.

Contest

In 2015, the leaders of the Ministry of Defense reported with pathos about an unprecedented competition for universities of the Ministry of Defense: in general and rear schools the competition reached 6 people per place, and among girls entering the Military University and the Military Medical Academy - as many as 30 people per place! Naturally, loud conclusions were drawn about the growing popularity of military service.

Today's applicants do not need to be afraid of these impressive, but rather crafty numbers - you are not grandmothers for whom the TV replaces the brain!

In fact, double increase in competition for military universities in 2015 occurred mainly due to the deterioration of the situation in the Russian economy - according to Rosstat, in August 2015, the unemployment rate among Russian youth aged 17-24 years was 16.5%, which is three times higher than among other categories of the population.

High competition among girls Let's also explain - they are recruited by barely 10% of the total number of applicants, and the unemployment rate among them is even higher than among young men. The reason is simple - has anyone heard of legal employers seeking (all other things being equal) to hire women of reproductive age?

Competition figures for other military universities were kept silent in the best army traditions. Those that require Unified State Examination results in physics for admission. For example, at the Smolensk Military Academy of Military Air Defense, the competition in 2015 was only two people per place.

In other science-intensive higher education institutions the situation is similar. There was also low competition at the Kostroma Academy of Chemical Defense - they require an Unified State Exam in chemistry. Where can you get such applicants? Army savvy! They sent a bus from Kostroma to St. Petersburg, and the children who did not pass the competition to the Military Medical Academy (where the Unified State Examination in Chemistry is a specialized exam) were offered to enter the Academy of the Russian Chemical Biology and Chemical Protection. They collected a bus of applicants and brought them to Kostroma.

well and the lowest competition, sadly enough, is in flight schools- only one person per seat. That is, in fact, the selection was carried out only according to the results of the medical flight commission and professional psychological selection, and physical training and the results of the Unified State Exam were considered last. If you are fit for health reasons, do not miss your chance to enroll!

To the Moscow Academy of the FSB of Russia in recent years there has been virtually no competition either, which is explained by the most stringent selection criteria (includes a polygraph and testing for drug use, as well as a special check of the candidate and his close relatives).

Competition is high only in those military universities that prepare “rear-facing goose”: the Military University and the Academy of Logistics and Technical Support with its branches. But do you need it?

Accounting for individual achievements

An innovation for 2016 can safely be called taking into account the individual achievements of applicants. If in 2015 only some universities accepted certificates of passing the GTO standards (badges had not yet been awarded anywhere in Russia at the time of admission) and awarded small additional points for this, then in 2016 the Ministry of Education and Science slightly centralized this issue by issuing appropriate recommendations.

Now candidates for admission have the right to provide information about their individual achievements, the results of which will be taken into account when applying for training by awarding additional points for them. The specified points are awarded to the candidate who submits original documents, confirming the receipt of results of individual achievements, and are included in the amount of competitive points:

a) the status of champion and medalist of the Olympic Games, world champion, European champion, winner of the world championship, European championship in sports included in the programs of the Olympic Games - from 2 to 10 points in different military universities;

b) availability gold or silver badge differences of the All-Russian Physical Culture and Sports Complex “Ready for labor and defense” (GTO) and certificates for it of the established form - from 1 to 3 points, depending on the university;

c) a certificate of secondary general education with honors or a certificate of secondary general education containing information about being awarded a gold or silver medal, having a diploma of secondary vocational education with honors– from 3 to 10 points, depending on the university;

G) implementation of volunteer (voluntary) activities(if no more than four years have passed from the date of completion of the period of implementation of the specified activity to the date of completion of acceptance of documents and entrance examinations) - 1, 3 or 5 points;

e) participation and/or results of participation of applicants in All-Russian Olympiads in mathematics, physics, computer science - 10 points; participation and/or results of participation of applicants in Regional Olympiads in mathematics, physics, computer science - 7 points; participation and/or results of participation of applicants in city olympiads in mathematics, physics, computer science- 5 points; participation and/or results of participation in other intellectual and (or) creative competitions, physical education events and sports events held in order to identify and support individuals who have demonstrated outstanding abilities in relation to the area of training or specialty for which the candidate is applying- 5 points;

For all individual achievements listed in points “a”, “b”, “c”, “d”, “e” a total of no more than 10 points can be awarded. Another 10 points can be awarded for item “e” (see below).

f) exhibited by a higher education organization final essay score in graduating classes of organizations implementing educational programs of secondary general education (if applicants submit the specified essay) - up to 10 points.

The dispersion in the number of points is explained by the fact that the determination of their weight is left to the Ministry of Education and Science to universities, and even within the Ministry of Defense, uniformity has not yet been achieved, and this is not important. It is important that you can actually earn extra points.

It is not easy to get a GTO badge, but it is very easy. If you are ready to take a physical training exam at a military school, then you will pass the GTO standards without difficulty.

Until 2015, only the implementation of the GTO complex took place, and since January 2016, all schoolchildren in all regions of Russia can pass the GTO standards and receive the appropriate certificates. The badges will be awarded at the end of the year, when you, I hope, will already become cadets... So take care of this issue, find out where the testing center is located in your city/region, sign up for testing and go ahead!

Entire studies have been written on the issue of volunteerism (see, for example: http://www.garant.ru/article/482997/).

But for you, I think, the campaign “Our Forest. Plant your tree”, held in September 2015 in the Moscow region, in which tens of thousands of people took part. I am sure that similar events were held in other regions of Russia.

Take a certificate from school that you took an active part in such an action, go with it to the forestry, get the same one there (as a last resort, ask your father, he will negotiate for a bottle). And make sure that the record of participation is contained in the school characteristics. In addition to additional points for individual achievements, this will add points to you in the professional selection process.

Participation in intellectual or creative competitions, physical education events and sports events [...] in relation to the area of training or specialty for which the candidate is applying - last year the theme of the 70th anniversary of the Victory was held in one way or another at many scientific and practical conferences and other competitions.

Not only the winners, but also the participants were given appropriate certificates. If you have one, do not forget to attach it to the set of documents.

If you don’t have this or a similar certificate, it doesn’t matter – a lot of conferences will also be held in March-April this year. Choose a topic related to both the army and the exact sciences (for example, “Mathematics in military affairs”).

If you are planning to enroll in the Kostroma RCBZ Academy, choose a topic about the liquidation of the consequences of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the 30th anniversary of which will be celebrated in 2016. This will not only add points, but will also confirm your military-professional orientation.

There is a nuance here: preparing for the conference will take a lot of time, and you need to prepare for the Unified State Exam, which is much more important. Therefore, after briefly sketching out the concept, entrust the bulk of the work to the “blacks” - your parents or younger brother. You will only get job protection.

I repeat: don't waste your time.. Don’t watch TV, don’t just hang around stupidly in “one-eyed contacts”, asking questions like: “how to enter a military school?”, “Will they take me to such and such a disease there?” or “I REALLY want to enroll. What should I do?".

Research conducted by Harvard University (USA) has shown that regular use of “search engines” to obtain information leads to a deterioration in the cognitive qualities of an individual - after all, if there is no need to remember what can be quickly found using computer technology, then there is no need to "use" of brain resources.

And if you don’t use something for a long time, many properties are lost. This phenomenon is called “Google syndrome”.

So also train your communication skills - go to the military registration and enlistment office. The earlier the better. You will be welcome there, and all questions regarding admission to higher military educational institutions will be explained in detail.

Good luck!

Help me understand the situation (preferably referring to articles).

Hello! Tell me, son, warrant officer of the Strategic Missile Forces, whether it is possible to enter the Krasnodar Pilot School if it is a Aerospace Forces. What options. Thank you

Good day! HELP ME PLEASE! Vision in one eye is -1.75, the other -1.5. In shooting, I take second place out of 20-30 professional shooting participants. Everything is fine with physical training! And my studies are almost excellent!
Will I be able to pass the commission and get into a military school if my only disadvantage is my eyesight?!
Thanks in advance.

Hello! I am 19 years old, graduating from college with a degree in electrical engineering. For a year now I have been wondering whether I should enroll in a military academy. I read a lot about admission, about studying, so to speak, I was interested in everything in this area) Well, every time there is some kind of uncertainty, one day you want to apply, the next you think about everything and already lose interest, this state manifests itself already after a year. This is why I want to ask you for advice. What do you think is the best thing to do if in doubt? Or should I join the army after graduating from college?

Hello! Tell me, is it possible to enroll in a military medical school (to become a military doctor) while currently being a citizen of Latvia?
And also, is it accepted for grade 2-3 scoliosis?

Hello!
After graduating from a secondary specialized educational institution (I have half a year left to study), I plan to go into the army, I’m studying to become a technician for the repair, maintenance and installation of medical equipment (a specialist in their electronics). As I know, after about 6 months of service, guys come and ask if I want to continue serving under a contract. Currently I am studying at DOSAAF to become a category “C” military driver. I was told that I could sign a contract and, during its execution, enter a higher military educational institution. Questions:
1) Is it possible to enroll while serving as a driver?
2) Are there educational institutions where they teach anything related to electronics?
3) If there are none, then where is it better to go?
Thank you!
