2. The volumes of enrollment target figures are determined annually by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, taking into account the proposals of interested federal executive bodies, other main administrators of federal budget funds, taking into account, in accordance with the procedure established by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, the economy's need for qualified personnel.

a) on educational programs of secondary vocational education, including integrated educational programs of secondary vocational education in the field of arts (in specialties of secondary vocational education);

b) undergraduate educational programs (in areas of higher professional education);

c) according to educational programs for training a specialist (in specialties of higher professional education);

In accordance with Part 3 of Article 5 of the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation” (hereinafter referred to as the Federal Law on Education), public accessibility and free of charge are guaranteed in accordance with federal state educational standards preschool, primary general, basic general and secondary general education, secondary vocational education, as well as free higher education on a competitive basis, if a citizen receives education of this level for the first time. At the same time, the legislation does not link the right to free education with the fact that the first education of this level must be obtained at the expense of budgetary funds (ie free of charge for the student).

The guarantees of general accessibility and free of charge do not apply to those persons who receive an education of the appropriate level repeatedly. Repeated is the acquisition of secondary vocational education under the programs of mid-level specialists and programs of skilled workers or employees - by persons who have a diploma with the assignment of the appropriate qualification.

Within the meaning of Part 5 of Article 68 of the Federal Law on Education, repeated is also the acquisition of secondary vocational education under the programs of skilled workers or employees - by persons who have a diploma of a mid-level specialist. In turn, a person who has the qualification of a skilled worker or employee and wishes to continue his education in the programs of a mid-level specialist is entitled to admission on a free and public basis.

If a student currently enrolled in educational program secondary vocational education on a paid basis, wants to move from paid education for free, then in this case it is necessary to be guided by the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated June 6, 2013 N 443 (registered by the Ministry of Justice of Russia on July 19, 2013 N 29107), which approved the Procedure and cases for the transfer of persons studying in educational programs of secondary vocational and higher education , from paid education to free education (hereinafter referred to as the Procedure).

According to paragraphs 2 and 3 of the Procedure, the transition from paid education to free education is carried out if there are vacant places financed from the budgetary allocations of the federal budget, the budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and local budgets for the relevant educational program for the profession, specialty, area of ​​training and form of education in the corresponding course.

The number of vacant budget places is determined by the educational organization as the difference between check digits of the corresponding year of admission (number of admission places for the first year of study) and the actual number of students in the educational organization in the relevant educational program by profession, specialty, field of study and form of study in the corresponding course at least twice a year (at the end of the semester).

The right to switch from paid education to free education is held by a person studying in an educational organization on the basis of an agreement on the provision of paid educational services, who does not have academic debts, disciplinary sanctions, arrears in tuition fees at the time of application, only if one of the conditions specified in paragraph 6 of the Order.

A student who wants to move to a vacant state-funded place submits to structural subdivision educational organization in which he studies, a reasoned application addressed to the head of the educational organization on the transition from paid education to free education.

The decision to transfer a student from paid education to free education is made by a commission specially created by the educational organization, taking into account the opinion of the council of students of the educational organization, the trade union of students (if any) and the council of parents (legal representatives) of underage students (if any, in relation to underage students). The composition, powers and procedure for the activities of the Commission are determined by the educational organization independently.

At the same time, we draw attention to the fact that educational organization have the right to carry out educational activities only in the professions and specialties specified in the license for the implementation educational activities and a certificate of state accreditation of educational activities.

The answer is given as of the legislation on 01/19/2018

in Russia, who has a general secondary education, can once receive a higher or secondary specialized education on a budgetary basis in state university. This means that the state pays for the student's education. A student who passes the session with "good" and "excellent" is paid a scholarship. Anyone who has only “five” in the standings can count on increased scholarship. There are budget places in some non-state universities, but they are usually very few. They usually enter the budgetary department on a competitive basis, having passed the unified state exams according to the list approved by the higher educational institution and posted on the official website. Some higher education institutions are given the right to conduct additional entrance tests- for example, an interview or a creative competition.

From the budget department, a student can be expelled for academic debt. You can recover, but in most cases the procedure is paid, and you can continue your education only on a contract basis.

contract form

In the contract form, the student pays for the education himself. He enters a higher educational institution, also on a competitive basis, but at the same time he also concludes a bilateral agreement with the university or. The contract, among other things, specifies the amount and terms of payment. The fee can be paid immediately for the semester or monthly, this is determined by the university. A student can be expelled not only for academic debt, but also for.

The amount of payment can be changed, and most often upwards.

State order in education

In recent years, a system of state orders in education has been increasingly practiced in Russia. This is also a contract form of education, but it is not the student who pays, but the enterprise that needs a specialist of one profile or another. A tripartite agreement is concluded between a student, a higher educational institution and an enterprise. In addition to paying for the training of a specialist, an enterprise can provide a student with some social services - pay for accommodation in a hostel, travel to and from the place of study, and also increase the scholarship. The enterprise also provides an opportunity to do an internship where a person will work. The student is obliged to work at the enterprise for several years after graduation. If it is, he must reimburse the company for the costs. Admission to higher and secondary specialized institutions is also carried out on a competitive basis.

mixed forms

In small settlements, a partially paid form of education is also practiced. For example, a university opens a branch, rents premises, invites teachers. Students admitted to the budgetary department do not pay tuition fees, but the rest of the expenses fall on their shoulders, that is, they contribute money for renting a room and paying utility bills. In any case, it is much cheaper than training on a contract basis.

The phrase " free education' has long since become a humorous expression. In the new socio-economic conditions in which our country has been living since 1991, the right to study exists, but no one guarantees that such services will be provided completely free of charge.

Consider the question of the right to such education at the university.

So, is there any hope for today's high school graduates?

Of course, there is such hope. Many of the graduates of this year and next years will study at state-funded places and receive long-awaited scholarships. Many, but not all.

After all, completely free education in the Russian Federation is provided only in schools, and even then there are paid additional educational services. In colleges and universities, it is also possible to study for free, but not everyone who wants to find themselves in such places.

If you have a benefit (you are a disabled person, an orphan, the son or daughter of a Hero of Russia), then it is easier for you to get a university place on a budget place, but if you are not among the beneficiaries, everything becomes much more difficult, and you enter on a general basis.

And it is very, very difficult to enter a university for a budget place on a general basis.

But more about everything.

All about budget places in universities

Every year the Ministry of Education determines the number of budget places in our country. As you know, such places assume that an applicant who enters a university will receive his education completely free of charge (that is, without investing his personal funds in it), and also the state itself will pay him a small financial incentive (in other words, a scholarship) .

However, if the applicant does not score enough points to enter a state-funded place, he can study at a paid department, paying a certain fee for his studies at the university every semester (naturally, he will not receive any scholarship).

Here, it would seem, budgetary places in universities - this is a real free education. However, everything is not as simple as it seems at first glance.

After all, then our education system would be just perfect, but this is far from being the case.

Number of budget places

The number of budget places is calculated according to the number of school graduates. It is equal to about half of all the country's eleventh graders who leave the walls of high school.

At the same time, not every second school graduate eventually enters a state-funded place in a university, because in addition to yesterday's schoolchildren, there are also college graduates, as well as graduates of past years. As a result, the competition for state-funded places throughout the country averages 4-5 people per place. For some specialties, the competition is less, for others it is many times more and reaches 20-30 people per one budget place.

It all depends on the prestige of a particular specialty.

Therefore, with such “arithmetic”, it becomes much more difficult to get a free education at a university.

The number of budget places in full-time and part-time departments

It should be noted that the number of budget places in full-time and part-time departments, as a rule, differs. Universities allocate more places for full-time departments, and less for correspondence departments.

It also happens that it is generally impossible to get a correspondence education for free. There are specialties in universities, but they are completely transferred to a paid basis.

The only thing that can be advised to the applicant is to collect as much useful information as possible. Already in the spring, the exact number of budget places is always known. All universities have their own websites, where you can always find a page for applicants. The admission plan is always posted on this page.

Hence the advice - if you want to get a free education, make every effort to achieve your goal. Find out in advance the number of budget places for a particular educational profile and calculate your strength.

What majors can you enroll in for free?

There are a fairly large number of specialties in universities that are considered non-prestigious, so the competition for them is small.

Trends, of course, change over time, but in general, such professions always exist.

For example, in every fifth or sixth major university there are teaching specialties, which involve training with the qualification of a “teacher of the Russian language”. And there is another department, after graduating from which you can get a diploma not of a teacher, but of a philologist or journalist. Of course, the last two professions are considered more prestigious, so there is more competition for the budget for them.

The same can be said about other professions: livestock specialist, sociocultural specialist, librarian, and so on. Here it will not be difficult for a school graduate with an average USE score to enter a state-funded place.

But, for example, it will be much more difficult to become a lawyer or an economist for free. And a specialist in international law- and even more...

What is a target location?

However, there is another option for free. It is connected with admission to the so-called "target" place.

What is this about? The fact that an agreement is concluded between the employer of a potential applicant and the university, according to which the employer pays for the education of a young student, and then he has the right to demand that the specialist work for him for a certain number of years. Often such an employer is the state itself, represented by ministries and departments that need specialists of a certain kind of training.

For example, doctors are needed for the subject of the federation (there is an acute shortage of them now). A quota of 30-70 target places is allocated for this subject. and studies on an equal basis with other students, however, after receiving a diploma, he is obliged to work for several years in public medical institutions of the subject, thanks to which he received his target position.

Otherwise, the student is obliged to reimburse the state for his education in full.

Is it possible to get professional retraining for free?

Some young people who already have higher education eventually realize that the profession does not suit them.

But they have already received higher education for free once in their lives. They have a need to undergo professional retraining with a new type of professional activity.

Is it possible? Yes, it is possible, however, if state-funded places in universities are still preserved, then additional professional education is offered exclusively as a paid type of educational service. Therefore, such a person, in fact, has two ways to solve his problem.

The first solution is to pay for your own education.

Second solution: try to get the employer to pay.

In fact, there are cases when employers are interested in raising the level of professional skills of their employees and even giving them the opportunity to get the right to engage in a new type of professional activity.

This can be used to obtain a diploma of professional retraining is free.

Is it possible to get a second higher education without paying?

Unfortunately, according to the law on education in our country, it is impossible to get a second free education at a university. The state guarantees only one education. Let's make a reservation right away that we are not talking about continuing education, for example, in a magistracy or graduate school.

But, alas, it will not work to study for free twice at a bachelor's degree or stay twice in a master's program. This applies even to those cases where the receipt of the first higher education was also paid.

Is it possible to switch from a paid branch to a free one?

Many students who enter the paid departments of universities, sparing their material resources, and sometimes simply not having enough of them, tend to transfer from a paid department to a free one.

Thus, they want to get higher education for free, only starting not from the 1st year, but a little higher.

Is it possible?

In general, this is possible, but there are certain nuances that you need to know.

Firstly, a paying student can get a budget place only if there are vacant budget places at the university. Simply put, if one of the state students was expelled. Further, it is necessary that its translation be agreed with the curator of the group, the dean of the faculty. Many universities prescribe the rules for transferring from a paid department to a budgetary one, indicating that such a student candidate for a budgetary place must be an excellent student or a good student, must show his best side, his teachers must speak positively about him, etc.

If secondary education was received free of charge, is it possible to enter a university on a budget?

Yes, this procedure is possible. Secondary special and secondary vocational education will not interfere young man continue your studies at higher educational institution. Moreover, college graduates today have an opportunity that school graduates are deprived of: they can enter universities without the exam, passing only entrance exams.

Moreover, practice shows that such applicants receive higher scores on entrance exams than high school graduates, so they are more likely to get a state-funded place.

What can help an applicant get a budget place?

Well, firstly, good knowledge in the field of those sciences that he will have to study. A high USE for a modern school graduate is a “real ticket” not only to a budget place, but also to a prestigious university.

Secondly, the applicant needs to show real ingenuity, carefully study all the specialties that are offered in universities, find out what competition is in these specialties, etc.

Thirdly, the applicant must know his rights well. Now it is not uncommon for members admissions committees at the suggestion of the heads of universities, they refuse to accept documents for budgetary education for far-fetched reasons. This is done in order to prevent “people from the street” from participating in budget education. Therefore, the applicant himself and his parents must firmly know all their rights and be able to defend them.

Are there other ways to get a budget place?

Basically, all the ways to the budget place were listed above by us. There are, however, several other ways. For example, there are free competitions of the Ministry of Education. The prize for winning them often becomes the right to a budget place in a particular university. Also, in rare cases, a university may accept a promising student not for a state-funded place, but for a place that he himself will finance from his own internal funds.

Thus, in general, everything depends on the will of the heads of universities themselves and the responsible secretary of the selection committee.

What conclusions can be drawn?

Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that it is possible to get an education for free in modern conditions. However, this requires a lot of effort. You also need to have high academic performance, be able to navigate the modern labor market, correctly choose the right specialty and the right university.

In fact, today, despite significant progress, it is also difficult for a person who dreams of knowledge and an academic degree to prove his worth, as in the days of M.V. Lomonosov. What the Russian genius just did not survive in order to get the proper degree of education: and deprivation, and hunger, and cold. Meanwhile, he also studied at public expense, that is, speaking modern language, occupied a budget place.

His example proves that those who want to learn can get higher education for free. Therefore, everything is in our hands: our successes and our defeats. You just need to boldly go forward and not be afraid of anything.
