Combat Medics Can Apply for Higher Education Through a Simplified Admission Procedure
In 2026, the special admission program for combat medics continues:
- Bachelor’s Degree Program “Paramedic. Emergency Medicine.” Tuition is fully funded by the state or regional budget. Applicants may enroll through a simplified admission procedure and complete the interview online. The program is designed to allow students to continue their military service while studying. Part-time study options are available, including a correspondence format with two on-campus sessions per year or distance learning.
- Current combat medics may also apply for professional pre-higher education programs. Admission is conducted through a simplified procedure with the possibility of completing the interview online. The program is offered in a part-time format, enabling students to study without interrupting their military service.
Last year, 350 service members took advantage of this opportunity.
Ten educational institutions will participate in this year’s admission campaign.
