Documents for admission to a military educational institution. Russian military universities: how to apply

Those wishing to receive military profession a lot at all times. Our article will tell you more about the details of preparation, and in this article we will talk about what military school what to do, how to choose correctly educational institution.

How to choose a military specialty

It’s easiest for those whose fathers and grandfathers were officers. If the son of a tank officer also wants to become a tanker, he already knows all the features of the service and profession, everything is clear to him. Graduates of Suvorov military schools will be helped by their teachers. How to become a Suvorov veteran is written in the article. For graduates of regular schools who do not have military relatives, it is more difficult. Let's try to orient them a little.

A military engineer is essentially the same engineer. Therefore, for those who are not very friendly with technology, electronics, or chemistry, it is better to think about other specialties. But after retirement, the former officer will have a ready-made peaceful specialty, which will allow him to grow cucumbers not at the dacha at the age of 40, but to full life. Such graduates can pay attention to the Rostov Military Institute of Missile Forces, the Pushkin Military Institute of Radio Electronics of the Space Forces, the Mikhailovsky Military Artillery University, and the Military University of Communications.

Working in the navy is very interesting, especially now that Russia has again entered the vast oceans and replaced old ships with new ones. The St. Petersburg Naval Institute, the Baltic and Pacific Naval Institutes will help you obtain these interesting specialties.

And besides, there are also border guards, paratroopers, pilots (Chelyabinsk Military Aviation Institute of Navigators, Military Medical Academy, Novosibirsk Military Institute). Each profession has its pros and cons, and you need to weigh them well before entering. To make it easier to navigate, take a look at this page with a list of military educational institutions in Russia.

Hello again, dear blog reader friends!

As I wrote earlier, I am a former military man. Former because this summer at will resigned from the ranks due to the end of the contract. Now I live in the town of my childhood, where everyone cares about everything, and therefore I am often asked: why did I leave the army, do I regret the years I wasted and do I regret my choice.

Why I left and how sorry I feel for myself, I already wrote. And in this article I want to answer the question about choice. You can also title it: “Where would I have entered 10 years ago if I knew everything that I know now.” It will also partially answer the question: “which military school should I go to?” and can become a good adviser to someone who has decided to become a military man, but does not know which university to choose.

My attitude towards Suvorov schools and cadet corps

If you, and most often your parents, decide to connect their/your lives with the army, your first thoughts will appear at school. And what? For them it's perfect option. With a clear conscience, they will shift all their responsibility for their children to these pre-university institutions.

Just think: the children will be dressed, shod, fed and put to bed on time and at the expense of the state. Beauty! There are cadet corps that recruit students from the 5th (!) grade. That is, these children spend almost their entire adult life in the army system. Of course not every city has Suvorov School or “cadet”, but some parents are ready to send their children even far away, pay a bribe for admission, thinking that they made the right choice.

My opinion is this: a child should have a childhood. Sometimes some people are just drawn to adventure and are eager to get out of the house - please. But you shouldn’t push, let alone force, a child to make such a decision.

After all, if in the end his military life does not work out for him, you, the parents, will be to blame. Discipline is certainly good. And government support too. But there is only one life.

Where do I get these beliefs from?

I was not a cadet, I was not a Suvorov officer, but I communicated with them a lot. What struck me most was the 6-year-old cadet. He spent 6 years in the army, no matter what it was, by the time he graduated from school! What else could he have become? Naturally he joined the army.

Therefore, I repeat once again - do not experiment. If you are not the son of a hereditary military man and do not intend to serve your Motherland all your life, do not go to Suvorov, and parents do not push your children there. Perhaps you will take someone else's place. Someone who really needs it.

What they won't tell you about the service

Our wise state calculated everything very correctly. You graduate from college at the age of 22, you need to serve another 5 years. In total, the person is 27 years old and has 9 years and 11 months of service. According to the law, someone who has served for 10 years or more has the right to housing and a minimum pension in a number of cases, such as dismissal for organizational reasons, in case of illness, or for a number of other compelling reasons.

The military man reasons: “Yeah, a little more and I’ll get a “ten”, I’ll sign another contract, and then we’ll see.” And in general, this “ten” in the army is just a fix idea, Rubicon. Although it does not provide any special advantages. Next minimum contract 3 years.

Total by the end: you are already 30 years old, you have served for 13 years. There are 7 years left until a guaranteed pension and apartment. Plus, you’ve already become lazy, you don’t know how to do anything except the ability to perfectly pretend that you’re working (although when the pressure comes you’re very efficient). So, what is next? Right! After this, a new contract is signed, and this time most likely for 10 years.

And what? I want to serve, most of my term is behind me, why do I have to fill out the paperwork five times? Another 10 years pass, you are 40. 23 years of service, until the age limit of 5 years, after which one hundred percent is in reserve. How lucky! One more contract for a well-deserved retirement. At this time, the children (who have them) are already big, and he himself is relatively young. In my life I have only seen garrisons and training grounds, but everything is there! He didn’t live in vain!

Only now I saw these 45-year-old men! I thought they were under 60. Honestly. Officers are all right, if you don’t abuse them too much. But ordinary contract workers give up their health completely. Even drivers have at least hemorrhoids and intervertebral hernia. Minimum. Obesity, various degrees alcoholism and much, much more.

I saw it! With my own eyes. But did anyone tell me about this at the military registration and enlistment office back in school, on January 11, 2003, when I went to enlistment? Do you who have decided to become military know this? This is not a freebie! This is not an eternal parade of white shirts and gold shoulder straps.

During the 5 years of my service, I wore my dress uniform about 5 times! Three times for the parade on May 9, when he was not in uniform, once on the day of the unit and once at the officers’ meeting in honor of the arrival of young recruits. Has anyone told you this?

This part of the article will be of interest to those who have decided to enroll in a military school, but do not know which one. In principle, such a question cannot arise among hereditary army men.

Not a single tanker in his memory would send his son to become a signalman. The children of air defense officers will most likely become air defense officers.

Not a single paratrooper would want to see his son as a medic or logistics officer, and this is understandable.

What should mere mortals do? Is it realistic to get into the ranks and what direction to choose.

It’s all very simple: since you’ve decided to become a military man, are ready to enroll in an army university, have health checks and are not registered with a psychiatrist – go for it. Just take an interest in the civilian specialties that this or that school offers. After all, on the day of graduation you will be given not only an officer’s shoulder straps, but also a certain state-issued document with which you will go through life.

Let me give you a few examples

Naturally, I’ll start with myself. My peaceful profession is an engineer with a specialty in Radio Engineering. It doesn't look like a profession. But just in appearance. Depending on the degree of academic performance, some knowledge settles (or does not settle) in the head. Only now they are preparing you for the army. Serve. Command and obey. Who wants smart subordinates? Is it easier to manage the smart one or the not so smart one?

Hence my observation to you: no one needs your knowledge! In the army, the ability to drink liters of vodka without consequences for the body is valued much higher than engineering knowledge. Yes, you will be asked for knowledge of the material part of the weapon, but these are different matters. That's not it.

So it turns out that a person who has gone through the “hard path from sperm to lieutenant colonel” (most often this is the ceiling) at the end of his life leaves the army without having a single useful thing for him. peaceful life knowledge. And where then (at 45-50 years old, full of ambition, yesterday’s big boss?) - right into security. If friends and colleagues who managed (or thought of) leaving earlier don’t pull them into some more decent business.

Radio engineering is a very promising and interesting field, but by civilian standards it is not monetary. It’s difficult to get settled; you need to know a lot.

And you need to have the ability to do this. I have a friend who is now advancing science at the research institute of our university. He is a talent. It's talent. Plus perseverance. He studied better than me, but I’m definitely no dumber. Only a big difference- He liked all these pieces of hardware, but I didn’t really like them. Much less than him. That's all. If you like it, go become an engineer. Then I can recommend the Smolensk Military Academy of Military Air Defense or the Yaroslavl Anti-Aircraft Gun. I don't know exactly what it's called. There they will make you engineers if you want.

But this is my experience. Once I got into the army, after about three months I realized that I was in the wrong place.

Military topographer

From an army point of view, and from a life point of view, today I would go to study in St. Petersburg. For a military topographer. It's really real profession. After all, according to their civil diploma, they are surveyors. And in the army, my age-mate came straight to the position of major. I am a senior lieutenant, and he is a major. Simply because I graduated from the right university.

But even if you decide to part with the army, measuring the land with a theodolite is a very profitable and not dusty business. Several of my friends work in the land cadastre. Believe me, they live wonderfully. And that guy himself stayed in the service for less than a year. He quit his job, lives in Krasnodar and has already bought himself an apartment. (And so I would have waited 20 years).

Logistics

The second or even the first coolest profession in the army is logistics. In Volsk there is the Volsk Military School of Logistics. They say it's very difficult to get there, but it's worth it. Do you want to deal with issues of clothing and food property? And if you're lucky, fuel and lubricants? Want to? And who doesn't want to? They have a peaceful profession, something to do with logistics, I don’t know for sure. Because these comrades sit quietly in their positions and are not going anywhere.


Motorists

There are several universities in the army that train motorists. I had the option of enrolling in Ryazanskoe, but due to childish stupidity, I thought it was not cool. Well, either shoot down planes or some motorists... But in vain!

This is very promising direction. Firstly, have all categories for the right to manage vehicles already a profession. You can always get a job as a driver. In the army, these people sit in the automobile service or in auto companies, write out and sign vouchers for cars, write off fuel and lubricants and are quietly silent about their affairs. You will always have a fleet of vehicles at your disposal with free labor in the form of soldiers and the necessary tools. At a minimum, always have a charged battery and a free car wash...

You know... For now this is enough, if this article finds a response from readers, I will definitely add a couple more sensible ideas to the list.

Nevertheless, what has already been written above is quite enough to give reasoned thought about choosing a profession. And choose a military university correctly, without unnecessary emotions, not based on the connections your parents have, not based on your place of residence - in the case of a military school, this is not important at all, but deliberately! With your head.

I still have something to say about the Mozhaisk Academy of East Kazakhstan region, physical education teachers and railway workers, but that will come later.

I look forward to your comments!

To be continued…

Any military educational institution, be it a lyceum or an academy, can undoubtedly be considered a place where they educate real men, real defenders of their Motherland. The advantages of such educational institutions are many. This is the enormous attention paid to the education of cadets, and high level knowledge compared to the national average, and balanced diet, and free accommodation, and a solid salary. But the main undeniable advantage of all military educational institutions is the opportunity to become more independent and prepared for everything that may happen in life.

Today there is a large number of military institutes in Moscow, which specialize in training highly qualified personnel for work in one way or another related to military affairs or law enforcement agencies. In view of this, many applicants who want to devote themselves to serving the Fatherland often ask quite rational questions: which university? better conditions training? Where are there more prospects? Where is the best place to go?

Moscow, as you know, is famous for its level of higher education, which attracts graduates of schools, lyceums and colleges from all over the country. And military institutes in Moscow are no exception. In total, there are about ten military higher educational institutions and universities of law enforcement agencies in the capital. We should talk in more detail about educational institutions whose main specialization is military affairs. Below is a list and ranking of military universities.

Military institutes in Moscow: ranking

This list was compiled in accordance with feedback from students, parents and teachers. Based on them, 8 educational institutions were selected.

Academy of State Fire Service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia

This institution trains specialists who will protect the population and territory of the country from fires and other natural and man-made disasters. There are only 4 directions at the university, the main one of which was and remains “fire safety”. The most important asset of the Academy is not modern equipment, but an excellent teaching staff - candidates and doctors of science. But it is worth mentioning the conditions in which students are brought up: the university is equipped with a 16-story dormitory, gym, swimming pool and many other establishments in which pupils spend their leisure time. Various seminars, conferences and days are also constantly held here. open doors, so anyone can see the work of the educational institution. Many military institutes in Moscow look up to this academy.

Address: Moscow, Boris Galushkina, 4.

Academy of Civil Defense of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia

Usually military universities are not famous a huge amount areas of training, but this one is an exception. He is multidisciplinary. Many humanitarian and technical specialties are taught here - legal sciences, economics, pedagogy, advertising. The educational institution is located in the city of Khimki, so we can say that it is included in the list of military institutes in Moscow and the Moscow region.


Address: Khimki, Sokolovskaya, 1.

Academy of the FSB of the Russian Federation

This university is unique; many young men try to enroll here, because now the FSB direction is considered truly fashionable and modern. But getting here is quite difficult, because you not only need to successfully pass the Unified State Exam and entrance tests, but also pass a large number of tests. Not all military personnel carry out such serious checks. But it's worth it, because being a student at the academy is just a dream. Here attention is paid not only educational process, but also for the cultural development of students - on the basis of the institution there is a library, a leisure center, and various clubs.


The most popular faculties of the university are rightfully considered to be “cryptography” and “computer security”.

Address: Moscow, Michurinsky prospect, 70.

Moscow Military Institute FPS FSB RF

This military institute is rightfully considered one of the best not only in Russia, but throughout the CIS. Training here is carried out in the following specialties: command, operational-search activities and border control. The duration of study at the institute is 5 years; there is the possibility of enrolling in both full-time and part-time studies (the latter option is most relevant for applicants who have one or more higher education). However, it is worth noting that extramural does not imply obtaining a military rank. All military universities in Moscow set such conditions.


Address: Moscow, Ostashkovskaya, 15.

Military University of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation

This university has proven itself quite well as a “factory” of highly qualified specialists in the field of military affairs and foreign intelligence, and as one of the leading universities in the Russian Federation as a whole. VUMO of the Russian Federation is multidisciplinary - here cadets are trained at eleven faculties, 9 of which specialize in training qualified personnel for service in the Armed Forces Russian Federation. The university provides two-level training for graduates, which is carried out in twenty different specialties. VUMO RF is a new word in military training.


Address: Moscow, Volochaevskaya street, 3с1.

Military Academy for Strategic Purpose named after. Peter the Great

The Academy was actually created on the basis of the Artillery School, founded in 1820 in St. Petersburg. It is worth noting that this university has a very rich history - it was renamed more than once, its purpose and even location were changed. However, the educational institution’s fame was largely brought by its graduates - the academy graduated a huge, by today’s standards, number of truly great people - heroes Soviet Union, heroes of the Russian Federation, holders of various orders. Since 2015, the university has been located in Balashikha (Moscow region) and trains specialists in eight different military specialties.


Address: Moscow region, Balashikha, Karbysheva, 8.

Air Force Engineering Academy named after Professor Zhukovsky

It was founded in 1920. Like the academy mentioned above, VVIA has changed many names since its founding, having “traversed the path” from the Moscow Aviation Technical School to the Air Force Training and Research Center. The name “Moscow Military Engineering School” was also known; many still call the academy this way. VVIA has a central base in Moscow, as well as branches in several provincial cities of the region. Teachers from six faculties train specialists at the academy.

Address: Moscow, Planetnaya, 3.

Military Medical Institute in Moscow

This institution is a branch of a fairly well-known institute of St. Petersburg - the Military Medical Academy named after conducts training in 7 faculties, preparing future doctors ( air force, navy, aviation, civil), SPO is also being conducted.

Address: Moscow, Malaya Cherkizovskaya, 7.

First of all, it is necessary to understand that military educational institutions have high demands not only on the mental abilities of cadets, but also on their level of education and, of course, their state of health and level physical training. Moreover, these criteria often play a much more important role than knowledge of the subjects school curriculum, since many faculties of military universities are engaged in training in specialties, mainly related to strength training.

Conclusion

Today, for those wishing to enroll in Moscow and the Moscow region, there are many worthy and promising options. The advantages of higher educational institutions that train specialists in military affairs include full state support and the opportunity to live separately from parents, which for some may be a decisive factor when choosing a future place of study. Military universities may also have shortcomings, but they are more likely “ side effects» advantages. Therefore, when applying for admission to one of these universities, the applicant must be prepared for everything that awaits him throughout the entire period of study.

Military educational institutions stand apart from civilian ones and are directly subordinate to the Ministry of Defense, which establishes its own procedures and rules. New trends recent years, such as the Unified State Exam, military universities in Russia may not be taken into account, and upon admission, the applicant will have to take exams the old fashioned way, write an essay and pull out tickets. But most importantly, you should make your choice in advance, due to the fact that some universities require access to state secrets.

Those wishing to enroll in a military school need to contact the military registration and enlistment office at their place of residence and there submit an application for admission to exams at the chosen university. This must be done before April 20, and for universities that require access to state secrets no later than April 1. The set of documents is standard, as for a civilian university; the list can be found there, at the military registration and enlistment office. And wait for the result, whether the candidate is admitted to the exams or not. The military registration and enlistment office is obliged to inform about this no later than June 20, indicating the place and time of the entrance exams.

Russian military universities send orders to the military registration and enlistment offices about the number of candidates for admission. But there may not be any applications from prestigious schools. You should not despair and give in to persuasion to enroll in another university; you need to demand that the military commissar accept your application to the chosen educational institution. It is common practice for military schools to accept more cadets than required. In the process of studying, many drop out at the initial stage, unable to withstand the additional loads. It is much easier for physically trained cadets to endure all the hardships of studying.

Entrance exams consist not only of general subject disciplines. Only after passing a psychological and psychophysical examination, and then passing physical standards (pull-ups and running), are applicants allowed to take subject exams. Benefits are also taken into account upon admission. Having passed all the tests and becoming a cadet, a civilian acquires the status of a military man, who will have to communicate with people in uniform for almost the entire five years.

Having become a student at a civil university, yesterday's schoolboy is immersed in a fun life full of emotions and entertainment. And for the newly minted cadet, the carefree life ends. The time is coming for strict discipline and a clear daily routine. Future officers can only relax during the holidays.

Cadets of Russian military universities have undeniable advantages over ordinary students:

  1. Upon entering a military school, an applicant is given the right to free travel to the place of admission, accommodation and food for the duration of the exams, as well as medical care.
  2. During training, the cadet is provided with uniforms, food, housing, monetary allowance. Uses it twice a year during vacation free travel to the resting place and back.
  3. After graduation, graduates receive military-special education, officer rank and civilian specialty, according to state standards. At the place of arrival for service at 3 month period they are provided with housing and have the right to an interest-free loan in the amount of 12 salaries, with an installment plan for 3 years.

Another plus in favor of choosing a military school is that graduates do not need to think about where to go to work.

Young lieutenants are required to serve at least five years in the army, and future life depends on the individual. Some continue to serve, some go to study, some retire to civilian life. Military education opens the way to a brilliant career in any field of activity.
