**College students join the military: the difference between junior college and undergraduate, 4 key points that high school students must know
Senior high school students can't wait to step into the new semester, return to school to review the college entrance examination, college students become soldiers: analysis of the 4 major differences between junior college and undergraduate.
With the end of the Spring Festival, the wave of rework and students ushered in a new semester. For this year's senior high school students, who are about to usher in the college entrance examination, there are less than 4 months left before the exam, and they are eagerly looking forward to returning to school for revision.
Last year, due to the impact of the epidemic, the candidates did not return to school as scheduled, which was a big challenge for the senior three students of the class of 2020. Fortunately, the Ministry of Education postponed the gaokao for a month, which was a relief for the students.
Recently, a number of provinces and cities have announced the number of applicants for the 2021 college entrance examination, and some people estimate that the number of candidates in the country is expected to exceed 12 million, indicating that the competition for the college entrance examination is becoming more and more fierce. While efforts to expand enrollment are underway, they are still insufficient compared to the rate of growth in candidates, meaning that many students may not be admitted.
For students with unsatisfactory grades, in addition to upgrading their academic qualifications through college upgrades, many students choose to join the army. So, what is the difference between college students and undergraduates?Here are four key points that high school juniors need to know.
Point 1: The tuition fees reimbursed are different.
If you enlist in the military during the university period, the state will compensate the tuition fee according to the length of study. Junior college students and undergraduate students are treated the same in the army, but since the duration of junior college students is three years and undergraduate students are four years, the number of years of tuition subsidized by the state is also different, which is 3 years and 4 years respectively.
The second point is that the priority of lifting is different.
After enlisting in the army, a soldier has the opportunity to be promoted, and if he succeeds in the promotion, he becomes an officer. All things being equal, soldiers with a full-time bachelor's degree are often given priority. There is also a difference in the age limit for the promotion of cadres, which is 26 years old for undergraduate students and 24 years old for junior college students.
The third point: After graduation, junior college students are not the same as undergraduates who become non-commissioned officers.
After college students join the army, the period of compulsory military service is two years. To become an officer, you need to pass the military academy, and the direct promotion route has been closed. Junior college students are transferred to non-commissioned officers in their final year, while undergraduate students are converted to non-commissioned officers in their first year as lieutenants. At this time, undergraduate students begin to receive their salaries.
The fourth point: when you are admitted to a military school, the number of years of military rank and grade is different.
Two years after joining the army, undergraduate and junior college students are admitted to military schools and changed to officers, and the number of years of military rank and grade is different. The rank of lieutenant is awarded after two years of junior soldier training, while the rank of lieutenant is awarded after one year of undergraduate training.
Becoming an officer is the dream of many people when college students join the military. Although the rights and interests of junior college students and undergraduate students are different, the country's emphasis on talents will not let the efforts be in vain. Academic qualifications are still very important for personal development, high school juniors, it's not too late to work hard, come on!I wish you all the best of luck and admission to your ideal university.
