Each graduate who has just completed nine grades of a comprehensive school faces a first important choice - the choice of a profession. Of course, you can continue to study, go to the tenth and eleventh grades, and then go to college, but today every second student decides to say goodbye to the school after the ninth year of study.
A lot of roads open before yesterday's schoolchildren at the age of 16 - secondary special educational institutions make it possible to obtain a demanded profession and in two to four years begin to work in their specialty. Many graduates are forced to start earning a living immediately after school, so correspondence education after 9th grade becomes less costly (both in finance and in the time to be devoted to study) an alternative to the university. In addition, colleges, as a rule, allow you to get practical skills in narrowly targeted specialties, but universities are guided by the theoretical part. Enrolling in distance learning after grade 9 is much more promising for many.
Those who have long graduated from high school and decided to acquire a new specialty are also interested in distance learning in colleges - every college, college, college offers this opportunity . Distance learning after 9th grade (more precisely, on the basis of nine grades) for such applicants is available on the same conditions as yesterday's schoolchildren.
It is implemented in several forms. Distinguish between the so-called classical distance learning, distance learning and training in weekend groups.
Standard distance learning
During the standard distance learning, students study the learning materials on their own. It is mandatory to attend an educational institution with this form of education twice a year. During the session, students defend course projects and pass certification activities (pass exams, tests, tests). After completing the program, graduates pass state exams and defend their qualification work, after which they receive a diploma.
Weekend groups
In such groups, students can combine education with employment. Classes are held only on weekends. As with admission to full-time form, each group of students is assigned a curator who assists students in the development of educational programs, conducts individual and group consultations.
Not every college or college allows this form of knowledge. Most educational institutions simply do not have enough teachers to successfully implement training in weekend groups. So if an entrant is interested in distance learning after the 9th grade in the weekend group, one should ask in advance whether the secondary vocational schools offer this form of education in the specialty of interest.
Distance learning
This is an innovative form of knowledge that greatly simplifies the learning process. This form of education does not require the student to attend classes regularly. In addition, distance learning in colleges is cheaper than full-time or standard distance learning, and the diploma indicates that the student studied by correspondence.
How to choose a specialty?
On the basis of nine classes of a comprehensive school, you can enter any technical specialty. In the future, the decision to go to college in a technical specialty will greatly help in professional implementation, because practice will always outweigh the theory. It makes sense to get specialized secondary education in programming, finance, architecture, biotechnology, design, the natural sciences, and, of course, working professions. It is worth focusing only on personal preferences and educational programs of colleges.
Correspondence studies after 9 classes should not be chosen if the applicant sees himself in the future as, for example, a university research assistant (it’s better to go directly to a university in an area of interest), a physician, a cook (practical skills that are difficult to obtain in the process of correspondence are very important in this profession) training; it is advisable to go to college only if the applicant is already working as a cook and he needs to confirm the qualification with a diploma).
Is there a correspondence course after grade 9 for a doctor, nurse or pharmacist? Medical colleges are a separate issue. The correspondence form is not in all the colleges that are trained by the nursing staff. Nevertheless, both the doctor and the nurse must be really highly qualified specialists, and correspondence training, when the student needs to master a large amount of specific information, is usually ineffective in this case. In absentia, you can get the profession of "junior nurse."
Conditions for admission to colleges
Preparation for admission must begin in advance: choose a specialty and college, technical school or school, familiarize yourself with the conditions of admission in a specific high school, prepare for exams, collect and submit documents to the admissions committee on time. Items that must be taken for admission depend on the specialty. Sometimes applicants will also have a creative contest. As a rule, an additional entrance test is waiting for future music teachers, architects, designers and students who enter other creative areas of training.
The conditions for admission and the deadlines for submitting documents, as a rule, do not differ in different colleges, however, this also needs to be checked in advance. Dates are set annually, as a rule, you can submit documents a couple of weeks after the completion of the main examination session of the GIA. Enrollment in correspondence courses after 9 classes is based on the results of the competition. If successful, at the end of July, the applicant will be able to exercise their right to choose a place of study, if the documents were submitted in several colleges. In August, enrollment is already underway.
What documents are needed for admission?
Extramural studies after 9th grade involves the submission of the same documents that are necessary for admission to full-time. As a rule, a set of papers includes:
- passport (if the applicant does not yet have a passport, a birth certificate will be required);
- copies of passports of parents (for minors);
- photocopy of registration (for applicants from the CIS countries who want to study in Russia);
- certificate;
- personal file from school;
- medical record from school;
- medical certificate of the applicant and vaccination card;
- four standard photos (on the back of each photo you need to sign the first and last name of the applicant).
Some colleges also ask for a document folder. Documents proving the benefits (if any) may also be required:
- confirmation of orphan status;
- disability report;
- military card (conscripts are granted a discount for conscripts dismissed in the year of admission);
- target direction (for persons who receive targeted admission) and others.
What do I need to take for admission?
Colleges after grade 9 (part-time education) offer many specialties, but only three can be selected for 2017 graduates from the State Academic Graduate School. Required are Russian and mathematics. Further, it all depends on the specialty. For example, the tourism manager will need the Russian language and history, the polygraph specialist will need Russian and mathematics, the programmer will need mathematics, computer science or physics, but the confectioner will have enough required subjects. Graduates who decide to enter a medical college need to take the required Russian language, as well as biology and chemistry. Biology will also be needed by psychologists and future teachers.
