The training not simply duplicates a course of studies of high school but pays special attention to the most difficult material and singles out important items necessary for preparation in this or that subject. Therefore graduates of Junior faculty have considerable privilleges among those pupils who didn’t attend the preparatory courses.

High level of training in foreign language

Studying English language is one of priority directions of preparatory courses. It enables students after entering the University to continue studying this language at considerably higher level. And they also can attend some special courses in foreign language which allow them to improve speech skills and to master professional vocabulary.

Besides graduates of preparatory courses already begin to study the second foreign language (240 hours) and a course “Information resources of the Internet” in the first year.

Examination in English language for the International certificate

Within the courses of Junior faculty pupils can attend preparation studies and pass examinations for the International certificate of fluent English (ÐÅÒ, FCE) in the British Council. The certificate confirms extending knowledge of English and is a generally accepted document in Russia and in many foreign countries. It gives more opportunities in career choices and participation in the program of student's exchanges.

The convenient schedule of studies

Studies are conducted 3-4 times a week during convenient time for pupils from 16:40 till 19:30. Time is chosen due to the schedule of pupils so that they have time to combine study at school, preparatory courses and their individual training.

Privileges for graduates of preparatory courses

The pupils who successfully passed tests in training subjects are enlisted to the University without entrance examinations. While all entrants go through entrance examinations, graduates of preparatory courses will already be sure that are enlisted on the chosen faculty in one of the leading Universities of Saint Petersburg.

Career-guidance for pupils

The program of career-guidance for pupils exists on preparatory courses. During this course the future students get acquainted with features of suggested specialities and disciplines that are being conducted at the faculty of management, economy and law of the University. We help our entrants to choose their future profession according to their interests.
